Winning Streak Ends For Mystics
BOSTON, MA - It was an inevitable outcome.
When two undefeated squads take the field, only one can remain undefeated.
Unfortunately for the Mystics, it was Boston who took that honor. It was a
grueling back and forth defensive match up between the top two teams in
New England. The Mystics were able to shut down Boston's initial attack,
but a penalty in range of the posts would give Boston first blood and an
early lead. This would also be the only score of the first half. Late
into the second half Boston let loose with a kick down field which was
recovered for a try that would put the game out of reach for the Mystics.
Mystic River finished the season with a 6-1 record and despite the loss,
will enter the playoffs as the number one seed in New England.

Mystics Blank 'Hounds For Win No. 5
PINE BANKS - As the battle for the top teams
in New England intensifies, the Mystics showed no quarter as they put away
the Boston Irish Wolfhounds (1-4) with a decisive victory in Malden.
Constant, hammering pressure from forwards and backs kept the 'Hounds on
their heels and the Mystics found themselves up 17-0 at the half. The
second half proved no different as the Mystics kept up their
relentlessness on both sides of the ball, totally shutting down the
opposition and touching down another five unanswered tries to secure
another win. Bouncing back from last weeks nail-biting loss, the Mystic
2nd XV were able to edge past a hungry Wolfhound side.
