Also, congrats to the Newton South Girls’ Soccer team for making the final four in the state.
And congrats to all the student-athletes, regardless of the season finish, for making the city proud.
If I missed any other notable fall sports finishes, please add them in the comments,
Congrats to all!
Congrats Tigers
Awesome accomplishment! The Volleyball and soccer teams have been good for a long time along with a few other sports like, basketball, track and cross-country. The city should take a look at what’s making those teams successful and see if it can be replicated in other sports that have not done as well. Thanks!
It’s great to see, Arthur. We have had friends with daughters on the volleyball team for years and have always marveled at their success.
My son was on the soccer team in 2014 and 2015, when wins were a little scarcer but the team was not without talent. It’s good to see Coach Dow lead the boys this far. Hoping they win.
I updated the post, as the Girls’s Volleyball final will be Saturday, Nov 20 at noon at Wellesley High School (I fixed the link to the MIAA bracket as well)
Doug, one additional update as NNHS Soccer is playing at 4 pm rather than 3 pm.
All Newton sports teams should be proud of these incredible accomplishments!
More time to get from Wellesley to Lynn to catch both!
Does anyone know if NFHSnetwork.com will be LIVE streaming the girls volleyball state champ tomorrow ??
