Dare we even say it? Let’s! Are playoff s in the cards around the bend? Why not start the conversation. Five or six wins will get the Sachems there. That’s defi - nitely something that might be ahead, the way they’re playing under Coach Cummings and Coach “Blue.” Why not? This year’s Sachems are defi - nitely feeling the “Why not us?” vibe, and Coach Serino, somewhere, somehow is coming along for the ride with them this year. Get out and root for these Sachems tonight against Swampscott at Serino Stadium.

Although this point could have potentially altered the fi nal of the match, respecting the spirit of the game is much more valuable to the core values of our program and Tommy’s integrity should be celebrated.” Frankie Annunziata of Revere tied his match, 4.5-4.5, in the fi ve spot. er for years in Boys Ice Hockey. Now they are partners in Varsity Golf. The Malden High and Revere High golf teams have merged and the result has been a bunch of early-season wins. The team’s #1 golfer, junior Chris Macdonald, had been a leader in most of the matches, winning the last four holes of his match against Medford to roar back with a key individual win of the eventual team win. Macdonald is also a key member of the Malden High varsity baseball team in the spring. This past Sunday, he threw fi ve innings of one-hit, zero earned run baseball off the mound for Malden in a Fall Baseball League. Good stuff ! Top golfers on the coop team from Revere High are Jonathan Wells, Ollie Svendsen and Matt LaCroix. Freshman from Malden High Tommy Cronin got some high marks for sportsmanship from the team’s coaches when it was learned he pointed out an error in the scorecard which gave him an extra point which would have put him over the top for a key individual win and, possibly, a team win. But the error ended giving Cronin and Malden neither. **** Everett resident Jake Willcox named Ivy League Off ensive Player of the Week & Gold Helmet Award Winner After helping lead the Brown football team to a last-minute win at Bryant in the September Revere volleyball shows growth Revere volleyball dropped matches to Everett (3-1), Lynn Classical (3-0), Lynn English (32) and Lowell Catholic (3-1). “While the results are not what we hoped for, these girls have continued to show growth in their skills and ability to play as a team,” Revere coach Emilie Hostetter said. “I am confi dent that this team will continue to improve as the season goes on.” Revere setters Susan Lemus Chavez and Bianca Rincon have been key in assisting with kills.

He fi nished 36-for-49 for a career-high 357 yards, and tied his career-high with three touchdown passes. It marks the third time in his career he has thrown for three touchdowns. Trailing by three with just under a minute to go, he went 4-for-6 for 76 yards on Brown’s touchdown drive, completing a 30-yard pass to Graham Walker to move the ball to the fouryard line, and then connected with Dillon Golden one play later for a four-yard game-winning strike with 13 seconds left. Earlier in the game, he put Brown on top, 13-0, in the second quarter by scrambling around and fi nding Wes Rockett for a three-yard touchdown pass. A lot of Everett and Malden residents were on hand to watch Willcox in person this past weekend in another wild game, a 34-31 loss by Brown, in a night game at venerable Harvard Stadium in Cambridge. The 6-2, 195 Willcox had another huge game, connecting on 36-of-52 passes for 364 yards and 1 TD. His favorite target, Wes Rockett, had 9 receptions for 147 yards. two 1.

The last time we played Lowell, the score was 4-0 at the end of the fi rst quarter.” Revere goalie Sonia Hally looked incredible and the defense was really strong in the fi rst half, according to coach Butler.
