Ashley Sullivan scored in the 74th minute to lift Danvers to a 1-0 victory over Wakefield in the Division 2 North girls' soccer final at Leary Field in Acton.

Click the link above to see Sullivan's goal when it finishes uploading.

Wakefield goaltender Erin Jackson is able to knock down the initial effort, but the kick is too strong and finds a way to trickle int the net to end a scoreless stalemate.

Sullivan has now scored in every one of Danvers' postseason victories.

We've got postgame reaction from Sullivan and her coach. We'll check back with that later. For now, Acton-Boxboro and Winchester are about to take the field for the final part of today's triple-header (Newburport defeated Ipswich, 6-1, in the Division 3 game earlier).

We'll have more updates and highlights from this one.

Stay close.
