Tars top Santa Ana, 1-0

SANTA ANA - Newport Harbor High was a 1-0 winner over host Santa

Ana Tuesday in Sunset League field hockey, the winning edge provided by a

goal from Caitlin Farrell in the first minute of play.

Amanda Wittman got the shutout with six saves, two of the diving stop

variety.

Athena Vasquez was outstanding at center-midfielder for the Tars, now

1-1-0. Santa Ana falls to 0-1-1.

A price was paid in the form of Carlin Schneider, who took a nasty

stick to the head in the second half and, with a considerable loss of

blood, was taken to a hospital, said a concerned Coach Sharon Wolfe.
