The Brunswick School boys soccer team has registered another successful season while playing a schedule that’s featured some of the premier teams in New England.
The Bruins celebrated Senior Day Thursday with a thrilling 2-1 victory over visiting Hotchkiss School. The Bearcats entered the game ranked No. 1 in Western New England’s Class A division, but the Bruins had enough to overtake them Thursday.
Sophomore Harry Heffernan scored the game-winner, tallying off an assist from senior Luke Esposito in the 72nd minute.
Hotchkiss took a 1-0 lead in the 25th minute, but the Bruins evened the score, getting a goal from senior co-captain Patrick Figgie in the 35th minute. Senior Curt Townshend made 12 saves in goal for the Bruins, who will visit Westminster in their regular season finale Saturday at 2:30 p.m.
Brunswick, which improved to 7-6-1, has done a fine job this season, knocking off formidable foes such as Deerfield Academy, Kent School, Trinity Pawling, Gunnery and Hopkins.
