Sarah Oteri scored three goals and added two assists to lead No. 2 Andover past No. 7 Westford Academy 5-1 in the quarterfinals of the Division 1 North tournament.
"Offensively, she's just explosive," Andover coach Maureen Noone said. "Her ice hockey skills translate to the field. She's scoring on slap shots and scoring from places most kids can't score from. She had a couple goals on the upper part of the cage."
Oteri, a tri-captain, was this year's co-MVP of the MVC.
Andover plays defending champion and No. 3 Weston at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at Andover in a semifinal game. Weston beat Andover 2-0 in last year's championship game.
"I think we're motivated where we lost to them in the finals," Noone said. "Playing them 60 minutes and beating them would make our kids year right now."
Goals: A — Sarah Oteri 3, Elise Krekorian, Laura Dimitruk
Assists: A — Anne Farnham, Jill Manning, Oteri 2
Saves: A — Tameka Geaslen; W — 6
