Hockey - Girls V
The girls’ hockey program at Phillips Academy has a long and successful tradition as one of the oldest high school girls’ programs in the country. The team competes in the New England Prep School Athletic Conference (NEPSAC) at the Division 1 level with one of the most competitive schedules in the league, which includes a holiday tournament in December. The Patsy K. Odden Tournament features eight of the top teams in New England and is a terrific opportunity for players to be seen and evaluated by college coaches. Many Andover scholar-athletes have gone on to play at the collegiate level, both in Division I and III. Most recently we have graduates competing in the Hockey East, ECAC, and NESCAC conferences.
Since 2001 the hockey programs at Andover have benefited from the state-of-the-art Harrison and South rinks. This beautiful dual rink facility allows the varsity and junior varsity teams to practice four times per week, play games, and complete their strength and conditioning and any necessary rehabilitation on site with our certified athletic trainer in the Bronk Training Room.
The girls’ program has advanced to the highly competitive Division One NEPSAC tournament twice in the last six years, with the 2006 team making a tremendous run at the title with a final four finish. Student-athletes who are interested in learning more about the girls’ ice hockey program at Andover should complete the student-athlete profile on the athletic home page. We look forward to hearing from you!

PAPuck pulled off a huge upset today, defeating Nobles in their home rink 3-2. While the Andover girls have come up on the short end of a lot of close games this year, today was their day. Cara Daly '13 had the game of her young career, figuring in on all 3 tallies with 2 goals and an assist. Andover went up 1-0 in the first off of Daly's first goal (assists to Mariana Walsh '11 and Kitten Sherrill '10) and then opened up the lead to 2-0 when Daly connected again from Walsh and Ann Doherty '11.) Nobles climbed right back into the game with two goals less than two minutes apart in the second period, but the Andover girls kept their heads up and went right back to work. Kitten Sherrill '10 got the game winner with 51 seconds remaining in the second period off a beautiful wrap by Daly and the Big Blue held on in the third period behind another stellar performance by Sarah Schuchardt '11 (34 saves.) A great team effort all around against a very strong Nobles team.
