High school round up

    High school soccer teams are playing their last regular season games before the playoffs begin next week. Teams are still awaiting their standings in their respective classes, though some squads may not move from where they are seeded when the final Heal Point standing sare released on Sunday.
    On Monday, Jimmy Fitzpatrick rallied the Houlton Shiretowners to a 3-2 overtime victory against visiting Madawaska.
    Madawaska opened the scoring when Ethan Wetmore scored off a Darin Jandreau setup at 21:02 of the first half and then the Owls took a 2-0 lead nine minutes into the second half when Ian Lee scored off a penalty kick.
