Concord was held to a scoreless overtime draw against Dover despite a strong offensive push at Rollins Park in the second annual Alzheimer’s Association fundraiser between the two teams.
The Tide (6-3-1) were evenly matched against their oceanic counterpart, the Dover Green Wave (7-4), in the “Alzheimer’s Showdown” on Wednesday afternoon.
Dover Center’s Jennifer Montague, the mother of Concord senior defender Lillian O’Hara, explained that her daughter organized the fundraiser and connected with Dover.
Montague said that studies have shown that physical activity and fitness can help prevent dementia and Alzheimer’s, so raising awareness and involving student-athletes is important.
The girls generated seven corners but only managed three shots on goal against a staunch Dover defense.
