This past Saturday, November 22, senior girls from Marblehead High School and Swampscott High School faced off against each other in the rival towns’ annual Powder Puff game. Marblehead dominated the game, winning 33-12 courtesy of touchdowns from Summer Urich, Olivia Cleary, Bryn Burton, Carter Murray, and Callie O’Neill, as well as conversion kicks from Mia Atallah. After a week at school spent dressing up in camouflage, boys’ football jerseys, and ripped up Swampscott shirts, among other things, the Magicians were focused on achieving their goal come game day. Swampscott broke Marblehead’s four-game winning streak in 2018, but this year, Marblehead girls were ready for revenge, and their determination shone clearly in their performance. Until next year, Swampscott.
