BURLINGTON — No. 10 Winchester ousted No. 15 Central Catholic 2-1 Monday in the Division 2 North quarterfinals on a goal off a corner kick a minute into overtime.
It was tied 1-1 at the half with the Raider goal by senior midfielder Tristan Hubbard on an assist from co-captain Nick Mroczko, a senior midfielder.
First-year Central coach Michael Bolduc praised junior goalie Justin Dansereau, who had 11 saves, and senior co-captain Will Inirio.
“Justin was phenomenal again,” said Bolduc, who is the Raiders’ third head coach in the last three years. “Will played a great game in the center of the field.”
Central finished up at 8-5-8 while the Sachems improved to 11-4-5.
