10/30/10 Lake Forest 0 - New Trier 2 Scouts Place 2nd in State Playoffs
10/29/10 Lake Forest 1 - Oak Park River Forest 0 The Scouts field hockey team is now one win away from the State Championship that escaped them last year.  In a very tight battle with Oak Park River Forest, Lake Forest finally put the ball in the cage after about 20 shots on goal.  Sarah Zavitz stripped the ball from the OPRF defense and sent it to a waiting Kasey Quon who ripped a shot past the goalie.  The ball was briefly deflected then finished by Julie Freeman.  Oak Park had several opportunities in the final 2:30 minutes but were stopped by goalie Lina Trucco and the stingy defensive unit of Mary Susan Bro, Katie Sullivan, Cynthia Stamelos and Katie Skinner.  Lake Forest will meet perennial foe New Trier at 1 pm at Benedictine University tomorrow, Oct. 30.
10/26/10 Lake Forest 3 - Glenbard West 0 The Scouts field hockey team defeated a feisty and determined Glenbard West team 3-0 in the state sectional to compete in their 15th straight final four. After a scoreless and blustery 1st half, Sarah Zavitz was able to put the ball in the cage after a lengthy scrum in front of Glenbard's goalie. The second goal came 9 minutes later during a penalty corner with Katie Sullivan tipping in Mary Susan Bro's initial shot on goal. The final goal of the game was scored by Julie Freedman with an assist from Kasey Quon. Lake Forest will play their long-time rival, Oak Park River Forest, in the state semi-final at 11 am at Benedictine University on Friday, October 29.
10/22/10 Lake Forest 6 - Highland Park 0 The Scouts won their regional game against Highland Park 6-0 with six different players scoring. Goals came from Sarah Zavitz, Hannah Nedeau, Kasey Quon, Cailee Filkin, Julie Freedman and Kelsey Adams with assists from Nedeau, Mary Susan Bro, Katherine Cook and Jessica Staton. They will next play in the sectional against Glenbard West on Tuesday at 3:45 on the front lawn in hopes of going to the final four.

10/14/10  Lake Forest 2 - Glenbard West 0 In their third game in as many days, the Scouts traveled to Glen Ellyn for a re-match of last year's semi-final game against a physical Glenbard West team.  With only 7 minutes remaining in the first half, Jessica Staton scored her 4th goal in 4 games to take the lead.  Glenbard was then issued a penalty stroke because LF goalie Lena Trucco did not have her mouth guard in.  Trucco made the save, and shortly thereafter Kasey Quon scored on a breakaway--faking out the GBW goalie to secure the win and #1 ranking in the state.  Mary Susan Bro assisted both goals and commanded the midfield with the help of Morgan Dever, Hannah Nedeau and Katherine Cook who just returned from a knee injury.    Lake Forest finishes their season with a 16-0-1 record in regular season play and will begin the state playoffs next week.
10/13/10  Lake Forest 2 - Deerfield 1 Although LF dominated the majority of the game, they were not able to put the ball in the cage more than twice.  Sophomore Jessica Staton hammered home a rebound off of Kasey Quon's shot on goal for the first strike.  Deerfield then scored to begin the second half and equalize the score at 1.  With ten minutes remaining, Sarah Zavitz scored with another assist from Quon.
10/12/10  Lake Forest 3 - Loyola 0 The Scouts field hockey team, playing in their last regular-season home game, dominated the Ramblers of Loyola winning 3-0.  Goals were scored by Kasey Quon, Jessica Staton and Julie Freedman with assists from Mary Susan Bro, Freedman and Quon.  Goalie Lena Trucco and the defensive unit of Bro, Katie Sullivan, Katie Skinner, Abby Sirus and Cynthia Stamelos earned their 10th shutout allowing only one shot on goal.
10/7/10 Lake Forest 4 - Glenbrook South 0 On a beautiful fall day LFHS field hockey defeated GBS 4-0 and celebrated their 8 seniors during half-time.  Three of the four goals were scored by seniors Kasey Quon, Cailee Filkin and Julie Freedman, with the 4th goal scored by sophomore Jessica Staton.  Assists came from Quon, Hannah Nedeau and Mary Susan Bro.  Goalie Lena Trucco earned her 9th shutout of the season.

10/5/10 Lake Forest 3 - New Trier 1 The Scouts put together their first multi-goal win against long-time rival New Trier-- winning 3-1. Lake Forest scored first on a penalty corner with Sarah Zavitz converting off of Hannah Nedeau's initial shot. This was Nedeau's second game of the season after suffering a torn ACL. New Trier marched down to the LF defensive end and put a goal in on their own penalty corner to equalize the score at 1. Three minutes later Kasey Quon took a rocket of a shot on a break-away that ricocheted off the post, and Zavitz hammered it past the goalie--who was out of position to attempt a save. Julie Freedman then added the third and final goal of the game on a perfectly-executed penalty corner assisted by Quon. Lina Trucco and the defensive unit of Katie Sullivan, Katie Skinner, Cynthia Stamelos, Abby Sirus and Mary Susan Bro held off the Trevians for the entire second half--recording 4 saves.
10/1/10 Lake Forest 3 - Stevenson 0 Goalie Lina Trucco earned her 8th shutout of the season with another zero-save performance thanks to the work of her teammates in front of her, who did not allow a single shot on goal.

9/29/10 Lake Forest 2 - Oak Park River Forest 1 After handily defeating the Huskies last week, the Scouts struggled to put the ball in the cage despite numerous opportunities. Trailing for the first time this season, Lake Forest came back with two goals in 3 minutes to secure their 10th win of 2010. Julie Freedman scored twice on terrific feeds from Mary Susan Bro and Kasey Quon. Morgan Dever, Jessica Staton and Mary Susan Bro commanded the mid-field to maintain the lead in the scoreless second half.
9/27/10 Lake Forest 5 - North Shore Country Day School 0 The Scouts field hockey team went into Winnetka expecting a battle and came away with a relatively easy victory against the Raiders of North Shore Country Day School winning 5-0. The previously unbeaten team was no match for the speed, stick work and talent of Lake Forest. Goals were scored by Sarah Zavitz (2), Kasey Quon (2) and Lauren Graves. Quon added two assists and one assist was added by Julie Freedman, Brenna Carberry and Katie Sullivan. Lina Trucco earned her 7th shutout of the season with two saves behind the defensive efforts of Laura Beshilas, Cynthia Stamelos, Abby Sirus, Katie Skinner and Sullivan.
