I have to tell you about my niece, Hannah Breton, who is a junior at the University of Maine.  She is also in her third season playing varsity womens soccer at U. Maine.  First a little background: in high school she excelled at soccer and was a member of the Greenville High School Lakers girls soccer team from when she was a freshman.  She scored over 110 career goals with the Lakers which is a Greenville High School Record.  When she graduated she told everyone and I asked her and she said to me too that she was going to concentrate on studies in the field of Electrical Engineering and not pursue college athletics.  http://www.umaine.edu/

I know that the sight of the team practicing on the field at the Orono Campus was too much to bear and she put on her cleats and ran onto the practice field.  She made the team as a walk on against talented other players from out of state with athletic scholarships.  Then she scored two goals as a freshman when put into the game.  Since then she has been doing great as always and she travels as much as I do.  This season she has been to Utah and Idaho.

Hannah is the second daughter and third child of my youngest sister, Melanie, who owns and cooks at Auntie M's Restaurant in Greenville, Maine with my mother Jean Wortmann.  Melanie also owns a grocery and convenience store with her husband Paul Breton in Greenville Junction, Maine.  I get the up dates about Hannah from my mother when I call the Home Office -- that is my code for my mother's desk phone at Auntie M's.  http://www.greenvilleme.com/businesses.html

On a raw, drizzly 22 October 2009 at the University of Maine Seniors Day at Alumni Field in Orono, Maine 5'6" Forward Striker Hannah Breton scored her third goal of this season off a rebound from a shot by teammate striker Laura Martel of Lewiston, Maine.  A few minutes later Martel took another shot and Breton put this one into the goal after it was deflected by a Stony Brook defender.  Martel would score when a corner kick landed at the feet of Maine Blackbear Stephanie Frennette-Blais and Blais' shot deflected to Martel off Breton's body.                                            http://goblackbears.cstv.com/sports/w-soccer/recaps/102209aaa.html

The Blackbears defeated Stony Brook 4-0 and then went on the defeat Albany, New York 3-2 on the 25th of October in Albany to win a second seed, a bye and home field going into the play-offs.  Then they defeated the University of New Hampshire 2-1 in OT on 29 October in Orono.  Today at 1 p.m. ET the Blackbear Womens Varsity Soccer team is in Vestal, New York against Binghamton, New York for the American East Semi-final.  The Maine Blackbears Womens Soccer record for 2009 is 6-2-1 in league games.                                                                                                   http://goblackbears.cstv.com/sports/w-soccer/mtt/breton_hannah00.html
