YARMOUTH — Belfast High rallied for two goals in the second half to beat York 2-1 for the Class B state field hockey championship Saturday.
The Lions tied it with 20:11 remaining on a goal by Brittany Mellor. Then, with 14:46 left, Brooklyn Curry scored off a penalty corner, taking a pass from Madison Cummings and putting the shot just inside the left post.
