Hornets lose heart-breaker in field hockey final

The ME Hornets, who went into the game unbeaten with a record of 20-0-1, grabbed a first-half lead on a goal by Amelia Burke. But Watertown, which now moves on to the state Division 2 Final 4 tournament with a record of 19-0-2, tied the game with a goal off a corner with 7 minutes left, then broke the deadlock in the closing seconds.
