Field Hockey Captures State Championship!

Tied 0–0 after the first quarter, the Quakers struck first with 6:07 left in the second when Peyton Galbraith ’30 tipped in a deflection from Cora Lohkamp's ’26 shot on goal. Just four minutes later, Molly Dolan ’26 broke through the defense down the left side and buried the Quakers’ second goal.

After a scoreless third quarter, the WFS defense held firm through a tense fourth, surviving consecutive penalty corners from Newark Charter. Sara Clothier ’26, Gianna Cottone ’26, Dolan, and Ella Fontanazza ’26 anchored the baseline unit in front of goalkeeper Anna Weiner ’26, who posted her 12th shutout of the season. Cottone made two crucial stick saves during the penalty-corner sequence to preserve the clean sheet. In open play, the backline of Cottone, Keeley Galbraith ’27, and Sydney Jenkins ’27 continued to dominate on the State’s biggest stage. Weiner finished with a game-high six saves.

The 2025 Quakers set multiple program records — including most wins (17) and most goals (80) in a single season. They allowed just nine goals across 18 games and did not surrender a single goal in postseason play. Dolan tied Liz Brickley ’87 for the most goals in a season (25), while Weiner set a new record for wins in a season by a goalie (17).

The Class of 2026 leaves an extraordinary legacy: a school-record 60 career wins (besting the Class of 1986 with 58), a remarkable 271 goals scored over four years, four State Semifinal appearances, two State Championship games, and three Delaware Independent Schools Conference (DISC) titles.

Congratulations to your 2025 Division II State Champions! Go Blue!
