Boys Soccer
After a comeback for the ages from the Field Hockey Team on Saturday 11/5, the Boys Soccer Team brought fireworks as well the following Monday night. They fought hard to a 0-0 draw in regulation, as Captain Ian Wick and his defense held out the Spartans. After striking the crossbar late in the game, Christopher Rhoden needed just a minute to find the back of the net in OT to win 1-0.
They then went to Westboro on Thursday, 11/10, falling 1-0 to a second half goal. It was a good season for the boys, winning their first tournament game in back-to-back years.
Volleyball
The Volleyball Team got things started with an epic 3-2 win over Burlington after trailing 9-2 in the final set in the first round of the tournament.
They saw their season come to an end in the next round. They lost to #1 ranked Westboro 3-0, but the score does not reflect the match entirely. The Cats battled hard in the first set, losing by just a couple of points. The Rangers then pulled away in the next two sets.
Field Hockey
After earning a tournament berth last season for the first time in nearly 10 years, the Field Hockey Team went one better this season, winning their first tournament game in 17 years in dramatic fashion, trailing 2-0 and trying the game with 46 seconds left. Lily Brockmyre scored both goals in regulation and Meghan Mylod scored the winner in OT to win 3-2!
They then traveled to #2 Nashoba Regional High School, ultimately losing 3-0. There is clear progress in this program and the future looks bright!

Golf
The Varsity team concluded the regular season, finishing 7-8 - just one shy of qualifying for the tournament as a team, but their best record since 2017! Ben Catudal, Johnny Gillooly and Rogan Pater represented MHS Golf at the Baystate Conference Tournament at Wellesley Country Club. Johnny (80) and Ben (82) were named First-Team All Stars, and the trio earned 3rd place in the league.
Ben Catudal and Johnny Gillooly both represented the Wildcats in the MIAA D2 North Sectional Tournament. They played very well at the Brookline Golf Course Ben shot an 80 (tied for 17th) and Johnny an 83 (tied for 31st).
Swim & Dive
MIAA States - Jackson Wagner broke the school and meet records in the 100 and 200 freestyle (despite placing second), Malachi Buchanan won the 50 freestyle, and Ryan Kelly swam a great race in the 100 backstroke to finish second. The boys won the 200 medley relay and 200 freestyle relay and broke the school record in the 400 freestyle relay by 14 seconds! They fell short 6 points to win.
The girls placed 12th overall, which was impressive with only 5 girls competing. Kaleigh Boynton placed 8th in the 100 breaststroke and 10th in the 200 IM, and Liv DiSandro placed in the top 16 for the 100 backstroke.
MIAA Sectionals - Kaleigh Boynton finished 7th in the 100 breaststroke and dropped 2 seconds in the 200 Individual medley to finish 9th. Jackson Wagner won the 200 freestyle and the 100 butterfly, Malachi Buchanan won the 100 freestyle and placed second in the 50 freestyle, and Colby Moskos won the 200 Individual medley and placed second in the 100 breaststroke. Top three finishers in individual events were Ryan Kelly, Aidan Crummey, and Tucker Korman. The boys won all three relays and won the meet by over 100 points!
Girls Soccer unfortunately did not qualify for the tournament, but over half the team is a freshman or sophomore, which bodes well for the future!
