Baxter, Horner each score in 2-0 Skipper victory.
Freshman Olivia Baxter recorded the first goal of her young career and senior Amanda Cirillo stopped the only shot on goal that she saw as the Skippers field hockey team defeated divisional rival Cumberland 2-0 Wednesday night at the Anthony C.

The North Kingstown High School boy's soccer team defeated Central High School by a score of 4-1 Tuesday evening at the Anthony Perry Athletic Complex.
