Thirty and Counting

Melrose Volleyball 2021 has no comparable season during a global pandemic. 

The "Fall 2" season saw Melrose go 11-1 en route to a Freedom Division title. The 2021 season stands at 19-2 with another Freedom Division championship. 

The 2021 edition has won thirty season and postseason games in a calendar year which eclipses any Melrose High team before or after. 

But there's continuity because the program refreshes with youthful experience. This team has four vital seniors - Elena Soukos, Autumn Whelan, Abby Hudson, and Ava Burns. But it also has underclassmen playing at a high level - juniors Chloe Gentile, Gia Vlajkovic, Ava McSorley, Emma Desmond, and sophomores Sadie Jaggers and Grace Gentile. 

"Do more to become more; become more to do more." Know your job and work to improve and you can expand your role. 

Perhaps anomaly, but the Western Massachusetts teams are all eliminated as we start the Division 2 Round of 16.
