After being shutout in the season opener against Silver Lake, Boston Globe Player of The Year Caitlin Burke has been on a tear, scoring 11 goals in the past four games, including four in a 4-1 win over Whitman-Hanson and All-American Sam Mewis.

After Mewis put her team ahead in the first four minutes of the game with a direct kick from outside the box, Duxbury got to work.

“We didn’t just hang our heads. We just kept working and battled back for a 2-1 lead at the half,” said Coleman.

Burke struck for both first-half goals, and put the game away in the second half with two more, while her teammates and sophomore Madi Lawson in particular kept Mewis from doing any further damage.

Junior Melissa Gavin may be playing in the shadow of Burke, but she is proving to be just as crucial to the team’s success, as she assisted on three of Burke’s goals with Emily Gallagher being credited with the other.

Burke continued her torrid scoring pace on Thursday, as she notched three more goals in a 5-1 Patriot League win over North Quincy, with Lawson and Gallagher also getting in the scorebook.

In what Coleman called “not one of our prettiest games,” the Lady Dragons were too much for the Red Raiders and led by 5-0 at halftime.

“We jumped out right away and everyone got a chance to play,” said the Duxbury coach.

On Saturday afternoon, Coleman’s team traveled north to play Bishop Fenwick, a solid Division II team in Peabody.

Having scouted the Crusaders in their 2-2 tie with Cardinal Spellman earlier in the week, Coleman had his mind set on blanketing their star with Lawson, who proved she can stay with just about anyone on the soccer field.

“We are a very good turf team because team speed is our strength,” said the second-year Duxbury coach.

Obviously Fenwick’s turf field played right into the Lady Dragons’ strength, as Duxbury scored four goals in a four-minute span and left the field at halftime with a 5-0 lead.

Goals by Katie Finocchiaro, Burke (2), and Gavin (2) accounted for the scoring, with Gavin also assisting on both Burke goals, as well as nailing a direct kick from 35 yards out to highlight the onslaught.

“We were just rolling in the first half and things kind of tapered off in the second.”

The game may have slowed down, but it didn’t stop Lawson from getting some offense of her own, as she scored the final goal in a 6-1 win over the hosts.

It’s a slow week for the team, as they traveled to Hingham yesterday afternoon for their only game of the week.
