Kylie Hefford, field hockey

Junior Kylie Hefford (Exeter, NH/St. Thomas Aquinas) tallied 6:53 into overtime on Wednesday evening, lifting the field hockey squad past Pilgrim Road neighbor Simmons College, 3-2, at Winsor Field. It was Wheelock's first win of the season in four contests, and the Wildcats' first victory over the Sharks in at least nine years. The goal was the second of Hefford's career, and her first winner.
