Caitlin Walker is making a habit of scoring game-winning goals against North Harford. Walker scored on a hard 10-yard shot 1:41 into sudden-death overtime yesterday to give No. 8 Fallston a 2-1 victory over host North Harford in an Upper Chesapeake Bay Athletic Conference field hockey game. The victory locked up at least one home playoff game for Fallston (11-2, 5-1) in the Class 3A regional playoffs. Fallston also might get a first-round bye, but that won't be known for sure until tonight's playoff draw.
