    Congratulations!

    Also, a shout-out to the North Volleyball team, who made the state final but fell to Barnstable this evening. Had the pleasure of going out to Northborough to cheer on the girls

    I’m not sure people realize how huge an accomplishment this is.

    Probably not Kim. I’m pretty certain people don’t understand the excitement behind winning a soccer game in the sixth round of penalty kicks. Those girls will carry that victory with them forever. I wish I’d been there!

    Congratulations to the NNHS Girls for their State Championship win. They had a great season and their coach who is a professional coach from MPS should be commended.

    It would be great if NNHS would hire a professional coach for the Boys soccer team also – they had a terrible season only winning 4 games. I am sure they could turn that team around with a good coach.

    Congratulations to the Tiger girls!
    High School girls soccer is the most competitive sport in the state… this is huge!
    As Joanne points out, Coach James Hamblin is an MPS coach. I thought it was a brilliant move when North hired him and wonder why South doesn’t use this approach.
