“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.” - Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities
Tears become the reward for deep playoff runs. Credit Lynnfield. The Pioneers made more plays and fewer mistakes en route to a 3-0 win over Melrose at Danvers. The nine Melrose returnees from the 2017 championship final would not be rewarded with a second trip.
Lynnfield controlled the match with spectacular back row defense and strong serving, complemented by crafty tips at the net.
Melrose played hard but struggled with the first pass, resulting in a plethora of Pioneer attacks off "free balls."
Lady Raider Notes: Seniors Nicole Abbott, Claire Albuja, Grace Davis, Marie Maher, Mary Kate Mahoney, Emma Randolph, and Erin Torpey finish their career with a nineteen win campaign and a Freedom Division title.
Emma Randolph added to her school record 900 kills but didn't get as many attacks as usual because of Lynnfield's strength and rotations.
Melrose will return a significant group of veterans next season with opportunities to win significant roles.
