I have plans to expand this program, so that we have a bigger turnout for years to come,” the rookie coach said. The 2023 varsity captains will be announced later today, Sept. 1, and they will be in charge of a roster consisting of 16 players. Each and every one of the players on this year’s team has something different to offer, according to Wright. “I’m extremely impressed and excited at what I’m seeing, especially considering many of the players have never played before,” the coach added. “We have a strong defense that could be unstoppable. But we have some big hitters also on offense. I think we will see what happens in our first game,” she said. Nicola Jones returns as the team’s assistant coach. Newcomer Taylor Woodbury will be a vital member of Wright’s staff, as well. Wright’s girls are gearing up for the home opener at Seven Acre Park on Wednesday, Sept. 6, against non-league Waltham, starting at 4:15 p.m. Haverhill, another non-league opponent, then comes to town two days later (Sept. 8) for a game at 4:30 p.m. “I’m extremely excited for this season,” said Wright. “We made it to the state tournament for the first time in 15 years during my senior year here, and I’m hoping to do it again this year as a coach.” Top row, shown from left to right: Captains Domenic Papa, Christian Zamor, Pedro Rodrigues.
