Each season a new team strives to build its own legacy, with goals including league championships, playoff appearances, and advancement deep into the post-season.
Girls' volleyball has enjoyed the most success of any sport in Melrose recently with six consecutive appearances in the sectional finals and steady increase in both interest and participation in the sport among younger girls.
This year's group, a senior-laden team has the opportunity to build on their prior success with a dynamic non-league schedule, including defending Division I state champion Barnstable and Division II state finalist Central Catholic.Today, the Lady Raiders host the Arlington Catholic Cougars at 2 P.M. AC is off to a 2-1 start in the Catholic Central League. AC dropped their last match 3-0 to their league leader Cardinal Spellman.
Melrose Volleyball Notes: The Lady Raiders did not face AC last season; Melrose resident Maria Scocca is a former AC star and plays for Division I Bryant College along with another former Melrose opponent, Adrienne Boss of Central Catholic.
Merry Heyward plays volleyball for Westfield State. Paula Sen played for Dartmouth's club volleyball team that captured the New England college club volleyball championship.
