2012 State Champions Enter Athletic Hall of Fame

Melrose lost just four sets in 2012 en route to a 25-1 Division 2 State Championship. Coaches Scott Celli, Steve Wall, and Andrea Basteri and many players attended the Melrose High School Athletic Hall of Fame induction ceremony and dinner last night.

What drove their success? They returned seven seniors to a team that had lost in the State finals the previous year. They set one goal and were championship-focused. They had star power and depth (seven league All-Stars) and a myriad of terrific role players.  

A lot of current Lady Red Raiders took in the Hall of Fame induction Plaque Ceremony last night.
