Page 16 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, February 18, 2022 GREATER BOSTON LEAGUE NOTEBOOK: Malden swimmer makes States; Everett boys’ basketball wins GBL title Revere High girls’ basketball fi nishes 3rd in GBL, clinches State Tourney spot By Steve Freker T he Winter Season is winding down its regular season schedule and attention is turning to the postseason competition in all winter sports. That holds for both individual and team sports and one of the top swimmers from the region, Malden High senior Tony Giech, is headed for this weekend's MIAA Division 1 State Swim Championships at Boston University. Giech, a four-year varsity performer for Malden, helped lead Malden High to a fourth straight league championship. For the past two years, including this 2021-22 season, Malden was Greater Boston League (GBL) Champion and for the two years before, was Northeastern Conference (NEC) divisional champion. Giech is one of the winningest performers in Malden High swim team history, in addition to being one of the top student-athletes at Malden High School academically and as a Class of 2022 offi cer. Giech qualifi ed for this weekend's MIAA State Championship in the 100 Yard Breaststroke by way of his 10th place fi nish in the MIAA North Sectional Meet, held at Milford High School. Giech fi nished at 1:04.43 (one minute, 4.43 seconds) in the 100 Yard Breaststroke event, right behind Eric Xu a senior from Andover High School (1.04.24). The event was won by Paul Shen of Weston, with a time of 59.98 seconds. For Giech, it was a season personal best in the pool, though not a personal best overall, which was 1:02.48 this past summer. Giech said he was pleased with his performance this past Saturday and was looking forward to the State Meet this weekend. "It was my best time this season, but I am looking forward to the competition at BU which will be the best I will face all year," said Giech, who customarily trains year-round with REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS BUYER1 PAN, XIAOQIN LANDAVERDE, AMADO I RECIO, CAROLINE ANSELMI, MICHAEL BUYER2 LIN, JIDONG LUTZ, BRIANNA THAI, NGOC SELLER1 BILLIKEN INVESTMENTS LLC VO, KHANH 165 CENTRAL AVE LLC HE, MATTHEW SELLER2 his club team. Giech was the top performer on the Malden High title team this past regular season and the GBL champ in the league meet last week. ****** Everett Boys Basketball fi nishes atop the GBL for fi rst time in fi ve years EHS Head Coach Stanley Chamblain's Crimson Tide Boys’ Basketball squad fi nished the regular season unbeaten (14-0) in Greater Boston League play and 18-2 over. Everett is led by junior Roger Vasquez, senior John Monexant and sophomore Steven Cordero, who are the team's top scorers and are among the top scorers in the GBL as well. The Crimson Tide squad is looking forward to participating in the MIAA Division 1 State Boys Basketball Tournament, which will begin the week after the upcoming February school vacation. Everett is GBL champions for the fi rst time in six years. Lynn English was GBL champions the past two years and Everett was part of the Northeastern Conference (NEC) for three years preceding the reconstitution of the GBL. This season Everett swept the two-game series, home and away, over Lynn English, with convincing wins. Beside Everett and Lynn English, both of which have clinched postseason berths, three other teams are still alive for state tournament play, all needing at least a .500 record: Medford is at 8-6; Revere is 8-7; Malden High senior Tony Giech has qualified to participate in the MIAA Division 1 State Swimming Championships. Above, he is shown competing in the Greater Boston League Championship meet. (Advocate Photo/ Henry Huang) Chelsea is 8-9. Lynn Classical (6-11), Malden (1-15) and Somerville (0-14) are all out of the running for state tourney consideration. **** GBL Boys Basketball Standings TeamLeague Overall Everett 14-0 18-2 Lynn English11-213-4 LEAGUE | SEE PAGE 18 Copyrighted material previously published in Banker & Tradesman/The Commercial Record, a weekly trade newspaper.
