(Courtesy/ Malden Athletics) f there was a sense of déjà vu at the Garfi eld School in Revere on January 28 for the Malden High School Coed Swim Team, it was for good reason. Just about one year ago to the very day, Malden once again was in the same position it found itself in in 2025. A victory on this day, on the road at Revere High’s home pool, for Malden would clinch the 2025 Greater Boston League Championship. Using contributions from up and down its roster, Malden did not disappoint. Jumping out to big leads early, Head Coach Jessica Bisson and assistant coach Julie Grillon’s Tornados rolled to a 7961 win over host Revere and clinched their 4th consecutive GBL Championship. The win was Malden’s 7th straight this season, after a seasonopening upset loss at Medford. With the win over Revere, Malden soared to 7-1, topping Medford 5-1-1, including a “revenge” win over the Mustangs. Malden took the lead early and never let up.
