When you’ve allowed four goals in four games but still don’t have a win, even someone who doesn’t know a thing about soccer can diagnose the problem.

The Kennebec Valley Athletic Conference golf playoffs will be held today at three different sites. These are not to be confused with the all-day, state-qualifier KVAC championships, which are Oct. 2 at Natanis Golf Course in Vassalboro.

SKOWHEGAN — Quarterback Adam Clukey, a first-year starter, threw for a career-high 297 yards for Skowhegan on Friday night. Just as importantly, the Indians’ running game worked when they desperately needed it.

Once again this season, Winslow has looked like one of the top teams in Eastern B field hockey. The Black Raiders are 6-2-0, and those two losses were by a goal apiece to Belfast and Nokomis — the two teams that played in last year’s Eastern B final.

Winthrop hadn’t been tested — in fact, the Ramblers hadn’t even allowed a goal — until last Wednesday’s 3-2 overtime loss to Spruce Mountain. It was a great field hockey game, and had the kind of playoff atmosphere that coaches always want their players to get a taste of before the real thing in October.

WINSLOW — It kind of goes without saying, but having a full roster is pretty helpful in Class C football. Lisbon showed that Friday night. Winslow showed it again Saturday afternoon.

PITTSFIELD — Maine Central Institute took a while to get its offense going Saturday morning. That was mainly because Maranacook gave a very poor impression of a winless team.

WATERVILLE — As Thursday afternoon’s game wound down, Waterville field hockey coach Ashley Pullen consistently urged her team to play hard until the game was over.
