Familiar Foes, Finals Set

As often the case, familiar foes frequent the State finals. 

In Division 1, Winchester seeks its first state championship against the Bay State League's Needham. Coach John Freeman's Sachems outlasted perennial power Barnstable 3-2 to earn a date with destiny. 

In Division 2, the Danvers Falcons will face the Canton Bulldogs. Melrose has met each over the years.

And in Division 3, Frontier puts its estimable legacy on the line against Rockland. Melrose traveled to Frontier early this year and topped the Red Hawks 3-0. 

Lady Raider Notes: Coach Scott Celli has been conducting exit interviews and soliciting applications for captaincy for the 2020 season. Melrose loses a lot with seven seniors, but returns plenty of proven players as well. The captaincy process assures high quality leadership each season, including input from candidates, teachers and administrators, and teammates.
