Marauders survive Arlington's last (two) minute comeback to secure its second league victory.
Belmont High School Head Coach Melissa Hart said early this season that playing a complete 32 minute game was one of the main goals for this season's girls' basketball team. Against host Arlington High, 30 minutes turned out to be good enough as Belmont – playing their best game of the year with strong defense and balanced scoring – relied on two clutch free throws from junior guard Amari Bradshaw with four seconds left to beat the comeback-minded Spy Ponders. 49-45, Tuesday, Jan. 3. Eight Marauders put their mark in the scoring column with junior standout Katie Leinbach leading the way, putting in 18 points including two three's in an 8 point third period as Belmont (2-3, 2-5) built a 15 point lead against Arlington (2-2, 2-3), 37-22, …

Caroline McCarthy scored three goals, Juliet Barker two, as the Belmont High field hockey team beat Arlington 5-0 Monday at home.
Arlington High goalie Carolyn Woodin stood on her head Monday, but it didn’t matter in the end, as a relentless Belmont High field hockey team scored five unanswered goals to win 5-0 and remain undefeated on the season. In a one-minute stretch that summed up both Woodin’s and Belmont’s efforts, Marauder players unleashed five separate barrages of shots on Woodin with about 11 minutes left in the first half, before Caroline McCarthy was finally able to break through on a sixth scrum in front of the goal. McCarthy’s goal, her first of three on the day, put Belmont up 1-0 and sparked a run of four goals to close the half. “I think was hands down their best game of the season,” said Belmont coach Amie Doherty, who was filling in for head coach…

Speedy Spy Ponder Robinson wreaks havoc to Marauder D but Belmont comes back for draw.
How fast is Rebecca Robinson? Really fast. This spring, Robinson was one of the top 20 high school juniors running the 400 meters in the US, recording a personal best of 55:03 for the one lap. Now put that raw speed on the soccer pitch and watch out. And when the first-time varsity gets the ball on the fly, the best even expert defenders is hope is that someone is coming to help. And pray. Twice, Robinson quickness punished Belmont's otherwize stellar defense with goals, giving the Spy Ponders the lead over their new league neighbors. But experience and steady pressure provided by an experienced midfield presented the Mauraders (2-1-1, 2-1-1) with the opportunity to tie the game only minutes after falling behind midway through a rainy …
