Melrose moves into the 'iron' of its schedule beginning next week but the big dog between the Lady Raiders and championship aspirations is Medfield. The Warriors have won three of the last four state championships, beat Barnstable last season, and rank first in Massachusetts this season.
Medfield has won with the Barrett sisters and won without them, and relies on tremendous defense which held down Melrose 3-2 in the State Championship in 2005. In addition to player of the year Molly Barrett in 2005, Medfield's back row repelled slam after slam from Melrose in that contest. Wickedlocal profiles the Warriors.
Within the North region, Melrose's principal competitors include North Reading. The Hornets and Lady Raiders had an epic battle last season with Melrose narrowly the victor. North Reading faced their toughest opponent yesterday (Andover) and suffered a 3-1 defeat.
