Eve Stone ’22 embodies the full-circle journey of a student-athlete returning to give back to the community that shaped her. While excelling in her senior season at Stonehill College this year as one of the top goalies in Division I, Stone also made the time to coach at Rivers.

It was a great winter sports season at Rivers! Girls’ varsity hockey, boys’ varsity hockey, and boys’ varsity basketball all qualified for the playoffs. The success of winter teams across all levels is a testament to the dedication, effort, and teamwork displayed across the whole athletics program.

The spring athletics season is in action! Rivers’ eight spring varsity teams kicked off their seasons during the first week of April, and ISL league play is underway.

The Rivers girls’ varsity hockey team opens the winter season with confidence, experience, and a clear competitive goal. According to Captain Chloe Chitkara ’26, the team’s main goal is to make it to the Elite 8 Tournament. Rivers has made the small school tournament the last two seasons, but is hopeful to break through into the Elite 8, which pulls the best eight teams from across New England regardless of size. “Although we’ve been predicted to be number 10 this year by the New England Hockey Journal, I believe that our team has the capability to be in the top eight and have a really successful season,” Chitkara said.
