Meet 25 southern Maine field hockey players to watch in 2025

Fifteen seniors help make up this list of players who should have productive seasons for championship contenders and playoff hopefuls.

Several matchups between likely regional and state title contenders are on this year’s docket.

The two-time defending champs from Cheverus remain strong, while Biddeford, Freeport, Yarmouth and Gorham are poised to be successful again.

Poise, intelligence, vision and toughness are all factors in successful corner defenses, which can be the difference between a win or loss.

The Tigers, eager for another deep run, kicked off the fall season with a night session at Waterhouse Field.

Fall practices begin Monday, and some teams rang in the new sports year at the earliest possible moment.

Class B champion Greely is represented by two players.

This year’s team includes seven players who were conference or state players of the year.

The Division I-bound Haggett starred on the mound and at the plate during the Tigers’ run to the Class A title.

Both coaches think their combination of top-tier QBs and big-time playmakers will have the scoreboard operator working OT.
