Attleboro junior Amelia Collins has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for May 5 through May 11. Collins is the 34th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and seventh in the spring season.
Collins scored five goals, including the dramatic overtime winner, in Attleboro’s thrilling come-from-behind win over Mansfield on Attack Cancer Night. The game helped raise money for Collins’ fundraising efforts in honor of her father Shane, who coached the Bombardiers the past two seasons and is currently battling cancer.
“Mia has been a driving force on the field all season, bringing relentless energy that elevates the entire team,” said Attleboro head coach Kerri Beland. “Her consistency as a scorer has been key to our success, and last week she stepped up in a big way—netting eight goals (of our 15 total goals for the week), including a thrilling overtime game-winner in our AttackCancer game. Mia has an ability to turn up the intensity in crucial moments and that sets her apart and inspires everyone around her. Very proud of her!”
Attleboro went into the fourth quarter trailing Mansfield 9-6 and in danger of a second loss to the Hornets in five days, but the Bombardiers rallied. Following a forced turnover, Attleboro grabbed the lead in the closing seconds only for the Hornets to race down from the ensuing draw to tie and force OT. Isabella Cavallini won the opening draw of the extra period and quickly got the ball ahead to Collins, who delivered the perfect ending to an emotional night for her and the Bombardiers. Two days later, Collins scored three goals and had one draw control against King Philip.
