Calling all Raider fans, it’s time for another trip down memory lane in Wellesley sports. This time I’m looking for some of the better coaches that our readers have had in their time playing sports in Wellesley. Whether it be little league, CYO, or high school I want the coaches that made playing sports memorable for you the reader. Let me know and I’ll compile a list based on your responses.
So for round 1 of 2 of Raider trivia this week is answer is… drum roll… 1999. That’s right prior to their 7-6 victory over Walpole Saturday afternoon the Wellesley High football team had not beaten the Rebels since a 22-8 victory back in 1999. Just to put that in perspective that was the year after currently Wellesley High head coach Jesse Davis graduated WHS and actually was the last year the Raider football program made the playoffs and/or won a superbowl.
So I missed Raider trivia Friday last Friday so to make up for it I’m doing a double dose this week, one question today and another on Friday. So today’s question is, prior to this past Saturday when was the last time Wellesley beat Walpole in football? Stay tuned for the answer tomorrow.
As we enter the final weeks of the regular season for most Raider teams every game matters. That being said lets check out the schedule for the upcoming week.
