Vol. 34, No.45 -FREEwww.advocatenews.net Free Every Friday Cicatelli’s 101st L ou Cicatelli netted Win No. 100 for his Revere High School football team last week. Win No. 101 was even better, he said. And no one will fault him for thinking that way. Revere’s fi rst win over Everett since 1991 ended a 33-year drought against the powerhouse program. The Patriots triumphed 42-18 in an unforgettable performance last Friday night on the road — giving Cicatelli his 101st victory, the team’s fourth in a row and one big, slammed door on four decades of futility against the Crimson Tide. The victory not only marked Revere’s fourth straight win but also secured Cicatelli’s fi rst victory over Everett (3-5) in his 22-year coaching career. “I’m not going to lie. Win No. 101 was a lot sweeter. It was a super, super mighty efwin shatters 33-year drought as Revere stuns Everett By Dom Nicastro fort from our players,” Cicatelli said. “We got momentum early, and we really never looked back. To say I’m proud of the kids, it’s an understatement. It’s probably one of the biggest wins in my career.” Despite winning its fourth straight and smoking a Division 1 team, Revere (4-4) fell shy of making the postseason. The Patriots fi nished No. 22 in Division 3. The Patriots needed to be in the top 16. Lynn English, which beat Revere earlier this season, took the 16th and fi nal spot. Cicatelli acknowledged the disappointment of falling short of the postseason but emphasized the team’s resilience. “All that good stuff happening, we thought we were in for sure,” he said. “I’m surprised we didn’t get more points for that. But the kids know what they did, and they know what they have a chance to do, and that’s win out and get to a 7-4 record. That would be a great year for us.” Seven straight to close out the season? It sure would. That team that lost four straight to open the season? Long gone. If they get more performances like they did individually — and as a team — against Everett, winning out is certainly not out of the question. Geovani Woodard ran for more than 200 yards, had another 60 catching the ball and had three touchdown receptions from Danny Hou. The Patriots set the tone early, taking advantage of Everett’s mistakes and executing on key plays to establish a commanding lead. Quarterback Hou got things started with a 12-yard touchdown pass to Woodard on fourth down, threading a pass under pressure to give Revere WIN | SEE Page 5 781-286-8500 Friday, November 8, 2024 Revere voters follow lead of Mass. electorate in Presidential vote By Barbara Taormina R evere voters came out strong for Vice President Kamala Harris in Tuesday’s presidential election casting 9,556 ballots or 52 percent of the total compared to former President Donald Trump’s 8,055 votes or nearly 44 percent of the vote according to the election department’s unoffi cial results.
