"There is a saying that people don’t remember books; they remember sentences. —" Morgan Housel in "Same As Ever"
Amidst 'signature wins' players make signature plays. These represent just a tiny slice of a much larger pie.
The 2010 team laid the foundation for future success with many sophomore standouts (e.g. Brooke Bell, Sarah McGowan, Rachel Johnson) and a senior All-State standout (Athena Ziavras). Athena finishes the sectional win.
Projecting the MVB 2025 roster in February is a fool's errand. Yet, MVB 2025 could remind long-time fans of the 2010 club.
The 2022 team showed maximum resilience during a postseason match with Billerica.
Set 4, Melrose leads 23-22. Ruth Breen slows an attack, Emma Desmond makes a running one-handed save going out of bounds, and Chloe Gentile gets a kill with an athletic adjustment.
In 2021, Melrose executed an improbable comeback, rallying from multiple fifth set deficits in the sectionals at Billerica.
The best player on a team isn’t always the player who scores the most. Sometimes it’s the player who has a high IQ or a diverse/versatile skill set or a player who is unselfish & coachable or who knows their role inside & out. Basing “good” only on points scored is a big mistake!
