Sparta Field Hockey Play Annual Pink Game

Written by: Lauren Groff 


On Monday, October 15, the Sparta High School girls field hockey team hosted their annual “Play Pink” game in support of battling breast cancer. The field was decorated with pink balloons and the players wore special pink pinnies instead of their traditional white home jerseys. Some team members added their own creative flare with pink hair ties, hair spray, bows, and temporary tattoos. At the entrance of the field, the Sparta Field Hockey Booster Club set up a table topped with a donation bucket with candy and other treats for generous supporters.

The Lady Spartans overpowered the Kittatinny Cougars with a shut down of 6-1. Juniors Kenzie Merwin and Allie McGuire each contributed a goal, and senior Lucie Wolfson shot in four to rack up the score.


Now with a record of 7-6 and rated second in their conference only below Lenape Valley, the Spartans’ next challenge will be against High Point next Tuesday for their first round of State finals. If they win, they will advance in the championship- with a chance at gaining a winning title!
