Better late than never and especially since this Celtics blowout loss is almost over, it’s time to answer yesterday’s Raider Friday Trivia question. Mike Robert, who currently is pitching coach for the baseball team was a senior member of the 2005 team that captured the D2 South title before falling to Lincoln Sudbury coached by current fellow Raider assistant Kirk Fredericks in the state semifinals.

There was one game on the docket on this rainy Saturday morning, as girls lacrosse closed out the week of action hosting Medfield in a non-league tilt. Could the girls wrack up another win towards tournament seeding, lets find out!

Result for 5-19-18
