It was the season opener on March 31 at Macdonald Stadium in Malden. Malden High sophomore Chad Robertson scored his team’s first two goals, both inside of the first two minutes, to stake Malden a 2-0 lead. This would be a good indicator of a big day for Robertson overall, as he ended up being Malden’s top producer with six goals overall for the Golden Tornado team. Malden led 6-2 after the first quarter and 7-4 at the half as Lynn Classical made a bit of a comeback in the second quarter to pare down Malden’s lead. Robertson scored another goal in the second quarter and one each in the third and fourth quarters to continue to pace the Malden scoring. Making his debut in the Malden High net was senior goaltender Aidan Jordan, who played a strong game with 12 saves to pace the Tornado defense. Malden’s scheduled game with Cambridge Rindge and Latin, a non-league matchup, was postponed last Friday. The Tornados were scheduled to play yesterday on the road at Somerville High at 4:00 p.m. in a Greater Boston League matchup. Malden stayed busy with another non-league road trip today, at Salem High at 4:00 p.m. The Tornados have two GBL home games next week, hosting Revere on Tuesday, April 12 at 4:00 p.m. and Medford on Thursday, April 14 at 4:00 p.m. **** Two new coaches for Spring for the Revere High School athletic program in girls’ lacrosse, and girls’ softball teams There’s a pair of new faces in Revere High athletics this spring, as new coaches take the helm in girls’ softball and girls’ lacrosse.
