Of the nine Spring Sports on the list in the GBL in 2025, Medford, Malden and Somerville — which all reside on the western half of the league, geographically — won eight of the League Championships. Seven of those GBL titles were captured by Medford and Malden alone, with the Medford Mustangs taking four championships this spring (Baseball, Softball, Boys Lacrosse, Girls Lacrosse) and Malden winning three: Boys Volleyball, Girls Tennis and Boys Tennis. Somerville was Boys Outdoor Track & Field Champion and co-Boys Tennis titlist (with Malden), and Revere Patriots Girls Outdoor Track & Field won its GBL Championship for the third straight year.
