FRYEBURG, Maine — The No. 5 Leavitt Hornets came to No. 4 Fryeburg Academy last Thursday afternoon and pulled off a mild playoff upset with a 3-2 victory in an action-packed quarterfinal field hockey contest.

The girls from Turner, Maine, jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead inside the opening 10 minutes of play forcing the Raiders to play catch-up. While up to the task, Dede Frost’s troops simply ran out of time in this one.
