Hill Sets New High School Scoring Record October 23, 2012 Somersworth High School senior striker Rachel Hill broke a 17 yr old record on October 16th when she scored a hat trick in an 8-0 victory over Kingswood. Hill’s three goals, #147, #148, and #149 for her career, tied and broke the old record held by Courtney Banghart of Souhegan (147 goals). Rachel has 30 goals on the season, and has reached or surpassed that mark each of her four years at Somersworth. She also has 32 career assists. Head coach Nick O’Brien presented Hill with the game ball in a presentation that briefly stopped the game after goal #148 during the 5th minute of play.
