Chelmsford at Andover … On the baseball field, Chelmsford just never beats Andover. But it’s the reverse in football. Weather problems favor the traditional bigger, plodding Lions. As a friend of mine once told me, always bet the heavy greyhounds on a sloppy track. Bruce’s boys 26, Mags’ Warriors 14 Londonderry at West … I [...]

OK, so I went 12-6, didn’t show enough faith in Lawrence and showed a little too much faith in North Andover. Oh well, the deficit is 3 as Dave Dyer, now 29-11 to my 26-14, had a brilliant week. Great job, Duffy, but it’s early. 10 observations from Week 3: 1. Everett is still Everett, [...]
It was an easy decision to make, Janice Zenevitch said. Boston College, which originally offered her daughter Katie a full scholarship over the winter, re-offered in June. New coach Sylvia Crawley, who replaced Cathy Inglese after she resigned in April, hit it off with the Central Catholic center right away. “Mom, this is so right,” [...]
A source close to Central Catholic hoop all-scholastic Katie Zenevitch has her giving a verbal commitment to Boston College. Quite a score for BC, which has tapped into the local talent over the years, including Masco’s Brianne Stepherson and the reigning ACC rookie of the year Stephanie Murphy or Londonderry.

Longo makes a nice little move in a tough week, going 8-5 on the grid picks, while Dave Dyer goes 7-6. Notice, I won’t count the Merrimack College results, as this is simply a pure high school contest. That said, 10 observations from the weekend of action: 1. Timberlane is legit, now 2-0, perhaps the [...]
Coach Ricky Nault ran off the names of the Division 1 schools bouncing in and out of the Valley to get an up close look at Carson Desrosiers. arizona state, Tulsa and Marquette are among the last wave of suitors for the 6-10 forward.

If I didn’t portray it in today’s Eagle-Tribune enough, you have to give it up for Lawrence and Central for the show last night.

Dyer goes 7-2, and i go 6-3 on the grid picks. Time to press I guess. Just kidding. Thoughts on the past weekend? Ouch, Lawrence really got beat up on their home turf against Malden, which suffered a couple major injuries of its own. Coach Mike Yameen could be down four starters on defense, including [...]
