First off, an earlier post had Edwin Norgaisse back at Haverhill for his junior year. Colleague Dave Dyer’s story on Bob Walsh’s resignation noted Norgaisse as transferring to prep school. That said, the Haverhill job is still one of the better jobs in the MVC, with city kids who love hoop. Talked to a friend [...]
