A solid season for the Hook

It’s been a big spring for almost every team in the Hook.

Here’s the final recap of the Red Hook regular season:

Boys Lacrosse: The Raiders capped their regular season on a five-game win streak after beating Monroe-Woodbury by a score of 13-7 on May 16. Raiders finished undefeated in Division C and ended the season with a 14-4 record, with losses coming from Arlington, Pleasantville, Kingston, and Minisink – all non-league opponents.

Girls Lacrosse: The varsity squad finished 10-5 on the season after beating a newly weak Saugerties squad by a score of 14-5 on May 17. Caitlin Swanson netted three goals and Insun Hendricks led the team with two assists.

Baseball: After whomping Spackenkill 13-4 on May 14, Red Hook dropped a heartbreaker to FDR three days later, 5-3. No big deal, though – Red Hook finished the season with a 14-5 record overall and a 12-3 record in MHAL.
