Erin Callahan was the kind of player throughout her career that coaches dream about. She was tough, skilled, relentless on defense and always humble. The total package, and it’s no surprise that the Kingsway Regional field hockey team took home three state championships during her four-year career.
She mostly played a defensive role throughout her career, but as a senior began to step up more as an offensive presence, as she notched eight goals and added a team-high 15 assists.
With Callahan leading the way, Kingsway posted six shutouts last fall, including two in the state playoffs. And, if it weren’t for the University of Maryland commit, the Dragons might not have a state title last fall. She scored the game-winning goal in a 2-1 win over Montclair.
