Skiing and Wrestling Reviews

Here we are, the final day of the 2018/19 winter sports season reviews as today we take a look at both alpine and nordic skiing as well as wrestling. The alpine and nordic ski teams both enjoy very successful seasons, with alpine finishing 4th at states, while in nordic the girls finished 4th and the boys finished 9th at their state competition. The teams will be back and ready to once again go for the gold next year.

Wrestling meanwhile finished the regular season 1-11 but did have some solid showings at sectionals and states, finishing 36th as a team at states. Individually Sophie Laing made history winning the first girls state title in school history.

Boys Swimming and Gymnastics Reviews

It’s the second to last day of our winter sports reviews as we take a look back at boys swimming and gymnastics. Boys Swimming finished up the regular season 5-5 and then finished 9th at sectionals and 17th at states. Like all other Raider winter teams this team is always very competitive and I expect nothing less come next year.

Gymnastics finished their regular season 5-2 and then went on to compete at the Bay State Championships. I would expect the girls to continue that positive momentum into next year. Tomorrow we will wrap up the reviews with both nordic and alpine skiing and wrestling.

Track Schedule

As we continue our spring season schedule rollout today it is boys and girls track. Now since both teams have the same schedule I will be posting this as one combined schedule. All home meets will take place at Wellesley High and all meets start at 3:45 pm unless noted. Here’s a look at the schedule!

Track:

4-10 vs. Framingham

4-17 @ BSC Relay Meet (Needham HS) 10 am

4-24 @ Natick

5-1 @ Newton North

5-8 vs. Brookline

5-15 @ BSC Meet (Braintree HS)

Indoor Track Season Reviews

Another day, another winter season review as today we take a look back at the boys and girls indoor track teams who both had banner worthy seasons in 2018/19. The boys finished 4-1 in the regular season, and then went on to finish 2nd at Bay State’s and at the All State Meet. The boys are always right up there and I expect things to be no different next season.

The girls had the perfect season finishing 5-0, and then winning the Bay State meet and the All State meet. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the team have the exact same amount of success next season and run towards another banner. Tomorrow we will review boys swimming and gymnastics!

Lacrosse Schedules

On day 2 of the spring sports schedule unveil we take a look at the boys and girls lacrosse schedules. Both schedules only list league games at this point so expect there to be additions.

Basketball Reviews

On day 2 of our winter sports season reviews we take a look back at both basketball teams. The boys earned a 14-4 regular season record and the 4th seed in D1 South. They defeated Durfee in the first round before falling to eventual sectional champ Newton North in the quarterfinals. After such a successful season look for the boys to reload next year and make another push towards a conference title.

The girls enjoyed yet another successful season finishing the regular season 16-3. The girls knocked off Walpole and Oliver Ames in the D1 South tournament before falling to eventual state champion Braintree in the semifinals. Despite some key graduation losses don’t expect that to slow down the girls next season as coach Glen Magpiong always has his teams reloaded and ready to compete for a title.

Tomorrow we will review both indoor track seasons!

Baseball And Softball Schedule

With the end of the winter season also comes the beginning of the spring sports season, and so today we begin the 2019 spring sport schedule rollout with baseball and softball.

Baseball will play all home games at Sprague again this year while softball will play once again at Lee. All games will start at 3:45 unless noted.
