The 2015 Rivers School girls’ varsity soccer team entered the NEPSAC Class B Tournament as the No. 1 seed after finishing the regular season atop the Independent School League. Wins over Middlesex and Pingree on Wednesday and Saturday, respectively, earned the Red Wings a shot at their fourth New England title.
 
However, standing in their way was a formidable Tabor Academy team that had stormed through tournament play as the No. 7 seed, knocking off the No. 2 and No. 3 seed en route to the final – a rematch of the 2013 championship game that ended in a 0-0 tie. Maggie McCabe ’16 and Kendall Trovato ’16 scored on either side of halftime while Brook Heinsohn ’16 posted another shutout in what was a fitting end to both this season and this particular group of seniors’ careers.

There have been nicer afternoons in Weston than Wednesday November 11, but for the Rivers girls’ varsity soccer team there haven’t been many better ones. The Red Wings notched a 4-0 victory over Noble & Greenough School to clinch their first outright ISL Championship.
 
In what amounted to a de facto championship game, the Red Wings (13-0-3) and Bulldogs played nearly 60 minutes of soccer before either team was able to find a breakthrough. With just over 20 minutes to play, Maggie McCabe ’16 found the back of the net to give the Red Wings the 1-0 lead and kicked off an impressive offensive performance over the final quarter of the game.
