Ella Sovine and Maggie Wilson had first half goals, but the New Haven Bulldogs looked to be a much improved side over previous years. Several speedy runs down the touch line put some pressure on the Bellmont back line, with the home team accumulating three shots on target against Mary Bleke, who kept her second NE8 clean sheet of the career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
