After a promising 1-0 win in their opening scrimmage against Concord-Carlisle, Middlesex Girls' Varsity Soccer traveled to Dexter Southfield for their first match of the regular season. An athletic DXSF squad came out strong in the first half, earning the lion's share of possession and converting that possession into two goals. Captains Julia Blum '25 and Maya Lloyd '25 set the tone for Middlesex in the second half, tackling hard and earning more time on the ball for the visiting side. The DXSF defense held strong, however, and neither team tallied a second-half goal. Final: 2-0 DXSF. MXGVS has its first home game of the season on Saturday, September 14th, against Pomfret School.
