Melrose faces a difficult non-league schedule this season, and has prepared with a scrimmage at Newton North Thursday and a six-game 25 minute apiece jamboree at Medway.
Melrose returns the core of its team, having lost only Senior Kelly O'Neill to graduation.
Today's action saw the following scores:
Melrose over perennial Division 3 power Frontier 34-23
Melrose dominates Division I Lincoln-Sudbury 40-20
Melrose stops host Medway 33-29
Melrose outpoints future opponent Bishop Feehan 42-25
The Lady Raiders handle Franklin 38-22
Melrose runs past Hopkinton 36-23
According to the Maxpreps schedule, Melrose hosts the Peabody Tanners in a scrimmage Wednesday, and opens against Watertown Friday.
Melrose has further expanded the program this season with the addition of a Freshman team, coached by former Lady Raider and Emmanuel College standout Andrea Basteri.
The season should offer change, at least according to the rumor mill. "The Grapevine" has Stoneham's Coach Andrew Viselli promising a Middlesex League title within three years, Reading and Lexington the usual suspects to challenge the Lady Raiders, and Melrose's seniors with their last chance to grab a Division II North Sectional championship while seeking their 7th consecutive berth in the Sectional finals.
Melrose is developing their next core of players while the seniors get their final title shot.We'll be on the lookout for preseason previews from the area newspapers.
