Every year there is parity. But for as confident as top-seeded Walpole (D1) and Watertown (D3) should be with their chances of securing the crown, there’s an unpredictable balance sure to shake things up.

Div. 1

The stars have aligned for Walpole (17-1) to avenge consecutive losses in the state final, set in a collision course with No. 2 Andover (15-2) to meet in the title game for a third straight year. The Porkers have an edge this time. But the only team they lost to (Uxbridge) fell to the Golden Warriors, who are clicking for a potential three-peat.

From there is an extensive tree of teams connected through beating one another. No. 6 Central Catholic (14-2-1) topped Andover early to show they’re capable of a Final Four run, but a No. 3 Wachusett (13-1-4) team it tied is anchored by experience. Chalk has them meeting in the state quarterfinals, though getting past No. 11 Belmont or No. 14 Barnstable won’t be easy.

No. 5 Acton-Boxboro (13-4-1) also beat Andover, but shares a blemish with No. 4 Franklin (17-0-1) against No. 8 Bishop Feehan. No. 12 Needham (13-5), No. 13 Winchester (13-5) and No. 20 Chelmsford (5-9-3) are sleepers, but A-B and Franklin look primed to meet in the quarterfinals.

Bishop Feehan (11-5-1) has settled into a rhythm since a blowout loss to Walpole and could give them trouble. First they get a chance for revenge for an upset loss to No. 9 King Philip, though the Warriors look for the next step themselves.

No. 7 Algonquin, No. 10 Concord-Carlisle, No. 15 Wellesley and No. 16 Lincoln-Sudbury could also turn heads.

Div. 3

Watertown (17-0) enters its bid for a three-peat as the clear title favorite on a 70-game win streak and 37-game shutout streak. Around them will be havoc.

Six of last year’s state quarterfinal teams are ranked in the top eight, each stronger than last year.

No. 2 Newburyport (17-1) followed up a surprise trip to the Final Four with a dominant regular season. An emotional rematch with No. 7 Gloucester (13-3-2) from last year’s Elite 8 is chalked out.

There won’t be a rematch between Sandwich and Watertown in the state final for a third straight year, but the No. 4 Knights (17-0-1) returned signature pieces to meet the Raiders for a fierce semifinal. No. 5 Foxboro (15-2-1) got a heavy dose of contenders in the regular season that Sandwich didn’t, though, which could mean it is bound for the Final Four instead. No. 12 Swampscott (11-5-2) and No. 13 Weston (11-4-3) are no afterthoughts.

Loaded No. 3 Dover-Sherborn (14-2-2) avoids Watertown until the state final, but No. 6 Falmouth (10-5-3) stands in the way as the only team to not lose to Sandwich. The Clippers look to make some noise in their new division, though No. 22 Hanover may be a significant sleeper. No. 14 North Reading isn’t an easy out either.

Strong goalies make a big difference to down a perennial juggernaut like Watertown, and the Raiders could run into a few. Gianna Triangle of No. 17 St. Mary’s (11-4-2) and Megan McGinnity of No. 9 Danvers (13-2-3) stand out, and both defenses have limited opponents.

Div. 2

The suspense doesn’t look as dramatic here, but don’t confuse that for a shortage of elite action. While they have dominated most of the way, neither No. 1 Reading (17-1) or No. 2 Norwood (16-2) is a shoe-in to meet in the final.

The Rockets’ second round would be against No. 16 Nashoba or No. 17 Masconomet. Both reached the Final Four in 2021 and 2022. No. 8 Canton looks like an upset candidate by beating Norwood in the regular season finale, but that’s if it can get past 2021 state champion No. 9 Westwood.

A second-round matchup for the Mustangs potentially holds No. 15 Notre Dame Academy of Hingham, which has been competitive in a tough schedule. A TVL rematch with No. 7 Hopkinton is possible in the quarterfinals. No. 10 Doherty also looks dangerous.

No. 3 Somerset Berkley (17-0-1) rolled past most as a strong Final Four candidate. A battle of unbeatens against No. 6 Dartmouth (17-0) is possible in the quarterfinals, but No. 14 Oliver Ames and reigning champion No. 11 Longmeadow spell trouble.

No. 4 Hingham (15-2-1) is ready to make its mark in the new division and will see familiar Patriot League foes until the quarterfinal. No. 12 Leominster is a sleeper, though, and No. 5 Minnechaug has big wins on its resume.

Div. 4

No. 1 Uxbridge (17-1) looks to have the tightest grip of any top seed, carrying wins over Walpole, Bishop Feehan, Acton-Boxboro, King Philip and Foxboro. Their cast of young stars has them primed for a three-peat, though anything can happen.

No. 3 Monomoy lost 6-0 to Uxbridge, but lost 6-1 in the regular season last year before taking the Spartans to double overtime in the state semifinal. The Sharks (13-2-3) are loaded for a crack at Uxbridge in the final. No. 2 Manchester-Essex (14-1-3) is Newburyport’s only loss and navigated a tough Cape Ann League to also stand as a final threat.

Senior-less No. 4 Sutton (13-3-2) hopes to ride its grass field all the way to at least the Final Four. No. 5 Case (14-1-1) was unbeaten most of the season and is sure to put forth a good run. Pesky No. 12 Frontier stands in the way if it can get past No. 21 Westport.

No. 6 Lunenburg (15-1-2) is a talented group to potentially send Monomoy home early. No. 8 Cohasset (11-6-1), No. 10 Lynnfield (11-7-2), No. 11 Clinton (18-0), No. 14 Nantucket (9-5-3), No. 15 St. John Paul II (11-2-4) and No. 23 Ipswich (4-8-6) may all be sleepers.

The sophomore shot a 71 (one-over-par) on the afternoon, helping Dover-Sherborn capture the Div. 2 golf championship at Thorny Lea Country Club in Brockton.

“It really is an amazing feeling,” Potter said afterward. “Coming out here, my first time playing. I kind of surprised myself with my ability today.”

Potter was named the tournament’s medalist, besting Reading’s Brandon Vitarsi by one stroke. His efforts directly impacted Dover-Sherborn in the final standings, as the Raiders edged Bishop Stang by two strokes for the state title.

Despite the tricky greens, which wreaked havoc for fellow golfers, Potter navigated the course’s tricks with little interruption.

His coach and mentor, Jon Kirby, was not surprised.

“He has (been incredible),” said Kirby. “He shot 11-under, set the course record at Pinecrest on his own, probably a 50-year mark. We had a practice on Sunday the same week, and he shot five-under our place for nine — to set the court record at Sassamont. He’s a good player. He’s a great player.”

Potter finished with a pair of birdies during the event, but also ran into some obstacles. After shooting a par on his seventeenth hole of the day, Potter walked out to the course’s second hole, looking to close his outing. His tee shot struck a tree and skipped into the rough, as he clung to a slim lead in the individual standings. Despite the tough lie, he was able to recover to finish with bogey, winning the championship for his school in the process.

“That’s the big one,” Potter said. “It felt amazing as a team to win. We got one two years ago. I wasn’t on that team unfortunately. But it meant the world to win today, as a team.”

In addition to Potter, Tim Hill finished tied for fourth overall for Dover-Sherborn, shooting a 75 (five-over-par). Grant Mayer (83) and Griffin Sipp (85) rounded out the top scorers for the Raiders. Their efforts topped the combined performance of Bishop Stang’s grouping of Matthew Oliveira (75), Matt Costello (76), Jack Shea (81) and Nathaniel Mello (84).

The title is the latest in a recent run of success for Dover-Sherborn, despite the school making the leap from the Div. 3 ranks to Div. 2.

It was also the latest title for Kirby, who has helped establish dynasties with Dover-Sherborn’s respective golf and tennis programs.

“I’ve just been very lucky personally to be associated with great players,” said Kirby. “It’s not me, it’s them. I’ve been lucky. It’s been a pleasure, and they’re great kids too. I just couldn’t be a luckier guy.”

But after finishing as runner-up in last year’s championship, no individual on St. John’s of Shrewsbury had to in order to achieve what they really wanted.

Behind a well-balanced effort that saw five of their top six golfers shoot under 80, the Pioneers fulfilled their quest for their first state title since 2012 with a 303 score. Senior Nic Gebhardt and Ronan Mooney each shot a three-over 75 to lead the way, comfortably beating out second-place St. John’s Prep (314) and third-place Xaverian (315).

Considering the program’s seven titles before head coach Sean Noonan’s tenure began 10 years ago, it’s an extra special feeling to finally get over the hump.

“It’s a dream season, really,” Noonan said. “Last year came that close. We’ve had two seconds, two thirds. … I’m super excited for all these guys. This thing will never be taken away, we get to go and put it up in the rafters in the gym.”

“It’s just a surreal feeling, it’s been three years coming,” Gebhardt added. “We got fourth my sophomore year, second last year. We only had one more place to keep going up. We got that done today.”

Playing in the same group as Downes, it took Gebhardt a resilient effort to finish tied for the third-best score with Mooney, Wellesley’s Ryan Keyes and Hingham’s Carson Erick.

After a third bogey on the 10th hole put him at 5-over, Gebhardt made par on the next four holes, birdied on holes 15 and 16, and shot even on the final two holes.

“It was a lackluster round but it got the job done,” he said. “It’s all about the mental space of staying in it because every shot counts in this.”

It was just one part of a team-wide effort, as Savar Bhashin shot a 76, while Cael Duggan and Curtis McDonald each shot a 77. Veer Bhashin’s 83 even beat out 49 other golfers.

“We’re a deep team,” Noonan said. “There’s 13 kids there, and any one of them could’ve been in the top six. … I couldn’t have asked for a better group of guys, really. It’s really cool. It’s really cool what we’ve done as a program.”

Even with a three-putt bogey on the third hole, it was smooth sailing per usual for Downes – especially on his 18th birthday on a course he plays regularly at.

Only once did he feel that played a major advantage, when on Hole 4h, he used a big backstop to help him immediately rebound from the bogey with a birdie. With birdies on 2, 7 and 9 as well, he rode momentum into a 3-under 33 on the front nine. Two more birdies helped him get as low as 5-under through 14, eventually finishing three strokes better than runner-up Ilan Rashdan (Westford Academy).

“It’s a cool accomplishment, I was kind of happy with how I played today,” Downes said. “I made a couple mistakes, especially one on the 18th coming down the stretch so it got a little close. But I’m definitely happy to be the back-to-back champ.”

Rashdan (one-under 71) failed to make par or birdie just once. Terry Manning (76) and Seamus O’Holleran (77) led St. John’s Prep, while Connor Walsh (77) led Xaverian. North Andover’s Brendan Burke, Natick’s Kaushal Karupakula and Barnstable’s Chad Tordone each shot a 76 to round out the individual top 10.

Pelzar gutted out a four-over 75 through brutal weather conditions on an already target golf course, leading Weston to a 322 score that barely edged runner-up St. John Paul II (323) for a second straight state title. That included breaking out of a spiral a few holes into the back nine, rattling off as good of a performance as almost any in the tournament over the final six holes.

The only player he couldn’t recover past was the Lions’ Jack Carstensen, whose three-over 74 won the individual state title. But Pelzar was ecstatic about what the team got instead.

“The individual title I honestly couldn’t care less about right now, I’m just super happy for the guys,” he said. “Super pumped for everybody … that’s put in hard work to get us here.”

Weston head coach Mary O’Brien preached the mentality that for as poor of weather it was, everyone was playing through the same conditions.

The Wildcats embraced that with a balanced finish. William Balz’s 79 was the only other score under 80 on the day, while William Goldstein shot an 83 and Teddy Dreyer had an 85 to round out the title. Co-captain Andrew Goldstein shot a 91 in his first state championship appearance.

“I’m extremely proud of how my players held it together,” O’Brien said. “It feels great and I’m so proud for these kids.”

A one-point finish only further heightens the impact of Pelzar’s closing six holes, snapping out of a bogey, double-bogey, bogey stretch on holes 10, 11 and 12. The senior said he knew he needed something to just break that momentum, and he got it with his best putt of the day to save a bogey on 12.

He shot one-under from there.

“He’s able to refocus and bring it back together, he’s always been able to do that,” O’Brien said. “He sets the tone in that he’s a leader. He works with the underclassmen, if you could see him during some practices. … They really do care about one another and they want everyone to be successful.”

Carstensen was on a roll by that point, though he started the day off with a triple-bogey that very quickly could have blown up his day before it even began. He’s had a rough go in rainy conditions all fall, so it was the opener to a potentially brutal day.

Instead, he said a few prayers to settle down, and used the nine gloves, four towels and an umbrella he brought to simply just stay dry. He then made par on the second hole, sank a birdie on the next one, and made par again on the following six straight to get into a groove for something special.

“It’s so exciting,” he said. “To get off to the start I had today wasn’t ideal, but I knew I had 17 holes left and I just kept trying to make some pars, and knew something would fall eventually.”

Matt Curley shot an 82 for the Lions, while Timmy Adams has an 83. Hopedale finished third with 338, led by Colin Haynes’ 80.

With a 3-1 first-round win over No. 10 Natick as the 23rd-seed in the Div. 1 state tournament last year, the then first-year Warriors coach knew heading into the second round there was a lot she could count on from her top players.

No, she didn’t predict rallying twice in the second half to eventually overcome sixth-seeded Bishop Feehan in overtime, 4-3, and advance again. She didn’t even necessarily predict a win at all – a 23-seed beating a six is quite the upset.

But for star midfielder Kelly Holmes to be the one who tied the game at 2-2 in the third quarter, and 3-3 in the fourth? Both on corners?

Yeah, Wilder spotted something like that coming.

“(How the Natick game ended) was one of the things for me where it was, ‘OK, (Holmes is) ready,’” Wilder said. “She basically called game (against Bishop Feehan). … She wanted it. And they knew it was going to her, but she wanted it.”

It was the most fun game fellow star Mara Boldy said she’s ever been a part of in any of her three sports, a memory that teammate Abby MacDonald’s game-winner prevented from spoiling. The joys of advancing twice despite the rankings suggesting it won’t happen even once is quite the elation, especially when it gives the program just its second trip to the state quarterfinals over the past 15-plus years.

That unit accomplished a lot, underdog or not. But with Holmes, Boldy and a bevy of other key players still on the team this year, the journey they started didn’t end with their 4-1 loss to eventual state champion Andover in the Elite Eight.

Don’t call it a Cinderella story – but instead a breakout.

“Going into this year, where we ended (and) knowing the group we had coming back, we felt very confident with them,” Wilder said. “You always want to ride on that momentum. Yes, there are some times, when you end, it is with a sour taste. But when you end in a good note (like we did), you always are looking forward to that start again.”

Now seniors, Holmes and Boldy lead an experienced group in a good position to build on last year’s successes when the state tournament starts this week. The year didn’t come without individual accolades, as Boldy scored her 50th goal in the second-to-last week of the regular season, and Kelly tallied her 100th point in the regular season finale

Together, alongside fellow senior captains Nikki McDonald (midfield), Bridget King (defender) and Meg Dowling (forward), they’ve led the team to a 14-4 record entering Sunday’s cutoff date. Holmes has over 40 points this season, while Boldy has over 30. Makenzie McDevitt and Ella Morgan have been critical scorers around them by combining for 40 goals, while MacDonald, Addison Lewis and defender Caitlin O’Brien have also played big roles.

Only one of their losses is by more than a goal, and all four (Franklin twice, Uxbridge, Foxboro) have been to legitimate title contenders in their respective divisions. They even lost 5-4 to Uxbridge, which shut out Div. 1 state title favorite Walpole, and beat Div. 1 contenders Bishop Feehan and Acton-Boxboro convincingly.

“I feel like because a lot of our team was here last year, we kind of know what it’s like and what it takes to make it to the point that we did,” Boldy said. “So having people with that experience, but also having a lot of younger girls who kind of just want to have it too – hearing our experience, how much fun we had – it’s kind of fueling them to pick up their game and kind of meet us where we left off.”

Holmes and Boldy have left a remarkable impact on the program in the meantime. Holmes’ playmaking and versatile skill in any position pairs well with Boldy’s scoring touch, which they’ve shown off together as starters since their sophomore year – Holmes since freshman year.

They’ve been teammates since they started youth sports in ice hockey and lacrosse, and that love has only transferred over into field hockey. Passing on what they loved about the game and the program is quite meaningful to especially Boldy, and she’s enjoyed her role the last few years.

“Just seeing how strong everyone else is, knowing that we’re kind of helping lead that,” Boldy said. “I feel like it’s definitely just – being one of the leaders on the team is just a great honor because everyone else is so great too.”

But the message shared with all the seniors so far has been that there’s still a lot of time left amongst one another. It’s not over yet. And it seems as the No. 12 seed in the latest MIAA power rankings, they might have to lead another underestimated postseason to prove they belong with the best.

Nobody is shying away.

“I hope we win,” Boldy said. “It’s going to be tough, it’s going to be tiring. But I think if we just stay true to ourselves and our love for the game, and keep going, we can go as far as that takes us.”

“We can score goals,” said Billerica soccer coach John Vassallo. “So that helps. We’ve got some guys that we moved around, couple guys that played midfield last year that are playing central defense this year, and we have a goalie who’s a junior and is coming into his own. He has been tremendous also.”

Last fall, the Indians reached the Div. 2 playoff field as the No. 11 seed with a record of 11-2-5, only to be bounced in the Round of 32 (a 2-1 loss to Nauset).

“It really helped motivate us, the loss last year,” said Vassallo. “Because we had a home game, so we thought we were going to be able to go a little bit further than we did. But reality kicked in, finding a program like Nauset, who has always been really good. They knew how to win in the playoffs, and we didn’t. These guys dedicated themselves for the summer, and said our goal is to win the league, then get a good draw for the tournament, get further than the first round. We want to win a few games in the tournament, and I think our ranking will help that. The loss definitely motivated us (the last) year.”

Now Billerica has a firm grasp on the top overall seed in this year’s Div. 2 power rankings at 16-1-1, with a team rating of 3.2322.

The showing is due to emergence of stars such as senior midfielder and reigning Merrimack Valley Conference (Small) Player of the Year Brian Jones (10 goals, six assists), and other standouts such as junior forwards Jason Xintaropoulos (12 goals, nine assists in league play), Ryan Jacob (25 goals, 10 assists), and goaltender Riley Donovan (seven goals surrendered, 6.5 shutouts).

The Indians have found a winning formula, and it starts with their core group.

“Last year in the playoffs, we were hoping we’d make it further,” said Jones. “When we lost to Nauset in the first round, it wasn’t what we were hoping for. Then this year, we won our first game. Our second game, we lost, and that kind of flipped the switch for us. We kind of realized how everything is supposed to be picked up, and ever since then, we haven’t lost a game.”

Billerica has dominated its Merrimack Valley Conference games, with impressive victories over North Andover (a 3-0 win Oct. 12) and Lowell (1-0 Oct. 17).

“It’s definitely good to keep track of (the seedings), know where you are according to everything else,” Jones said. “But we can’t let it get to our heads. Just because we’re the one seed, it doesn’t mean we can’t have our best game. But you can see it, every other team wants to beat us since we’re so highly-ranked.”

The team’s lone loss was a 3-0 defeat to Bedford in early September, which sits second among Div. 2 schools in the power rankings at 9-2-4 with a team rating of 3.0843. Vassallo believes his group has grown from that game. A rematch with the Buccaneers is possible.

“I hope (for a second battle) anyways,” chuckled Vassallo. “They actually gave us a good eye-opener, where it was our second game of the season, so we were trying to figure out our defense. They were much more mature than us playing-wise. My group was young and inexperienced at that level, so it was actually a good game for us, where we learned a lot about how to play defense, and how to get going. It motivated us, because every once in a while, one of the kids will bring up the Bedford game.”

When the pairings are unveiled Wednesday, Billerica will be ready for whichever opponent comes its way.

“We need some rest, because we have some injuries and we’re a little bit tired,” Vassallo said. “I think the seniors and the captains have to step up, and say this is where we worked so hard — to get here. I think it’s about seeing if we can keep it going.”

In Div. 1, Everett found itself on the outside looking in despite a 7-1 record. The biggest problem was that the Crimson Tide were victimized by being in the Greater Boston League, where many of the teams are in lower divisions and struggled with losing records. Four of the wins came against Revere, Lynn English, Malden and Somerville, who have a combined 6-26 record and were the last four teams in the Div. 3 power rankings.

“I don’t want to speak too much today other than I feel really badly for the seniors,” first-year Everett coach Justin Flores said. “We were one of the best teams in the state (ranked eighth by the Boston Herald), we played two teams in the Catholic Conference, beat one of them (BC High) and lost a tough game against the other one (Xaverian) who is the second seed.

“We can not control our league situation. But we are going to have to find a way to operate around this with the schedule. With the power rankings, we are going to need to fix something on our end.”

Everett certainly received a lot of sympathy on social media once the MIAA released the tournament pairings. Mansfield coach Mike Redding, one of the more respected voices in the football community, said the system needs some immediate tweaking.

“You really need to re-evaluate how much the opponent value factors into power rating,” Redding said. “Fifty percent is significant and if your mandated league games are reducing your opponent value you have no options. Everett should be in the playoffs at 7-1 and should not be sitting at home.”

As for the defending champions and top-seed in Div. 1, St. John’s Prep coach Brian St. Pierre is already in tournament mode. He refused to look at the long-term prospects for his team; the focus is strictly on his first-round opponent, Leominster.

“Most of the teams that we are going to face in Div. 1 are going to be really good,” St. Pierre said. “Right now, the only thing we are looking at is Leominster. That’s the way we’ve always done things here.”

St. Pierre weighed in on the current power rankings system.

“I appreciate all the work that goes into doing this,” St. Pierre said. “I do think that wins need to count a little more and that’s something that needs to be looked at. I also think if we beat a Catholic Memorial, that should count more than beating a 3-3 team. If you beat a good team, you should get extra points.

“I know Jim Clark puts in a ton of work. I don’t know if there is a perfect system out there.”

St. Pierre certainly makes a valid point with his final comment. Going back to the Super Bowl system in the 1970s, there were instances of teams going 11-0 but not having enough of a power rating to qualify for the Super Bowl. When the system changed years later to reward a team for winning a league title, you had teams going 10-1 and not qualifying because the loss came against a team who went on to win the league title.

One thing is for certain, there are many folks in Everett not happy right now.

SWEET 16

1. St. John’s Prep (8-0) – Defending champions capped off an undefeated regular season in style.

2. Catholic Memorial (5-2) – Knights are clearly the favorites in Div. 2, but injuries don’t make them as sure a bet as in the past.

3. Xaverian (6-2) – Tough draw for the Hawks with a potential second-round contest against Springfield Central.

4. King Philip (8-0) – All business approach leads to a perfect season in Hockomock League play.

5. Milford (7-1) – Bounced back with an impressive win over a solid Franklin squad.

6. Needham (7-1) – Could be the best Rocket team since the Super Bowl squad of a few years back.

7. Lincoln-Sudbury (7-1) – One of several solid teams in the Div. 1 postseason field.

8. Everett (7-1) – A lot of unhappy campers in Crimson Tide country after failing to qualify for the tournament despite a solid record.

9. Hanover (8-0) – Good luck trying to solve this offense in the postseason.

10. Duxbury (6-1) – After the season-opening loss, many (this scribe included) felt they might struggle a bit. Six wins laters, rumors of their demise were greatly exaggerated.

11. Methuen (6-2) – Battled-tested Rangers ready for the postseason.

12. Andover (7-1) – Golden Warriors ended the regular season in style with a dominant win over previously unbeaten Billerica.

13. Foxboro (7-1) – Wouldn’t it be something if the year Jack Martinelli wins his 300th, his team finds a way to the state finals at nearby Gillette Stadium.

14. Billerica (7-1) – You never want to lose a game, but dropping the first one the week before the start of the playoffs isn’t ideal to say the least.

15. Marshfield (6-2) – Another team that is heading into the postseason on a high note with six consecutive wins.

16. Mansfield (5-3) – Hornets enter the postseason on a five-game winning streak after a slow start.

It was Needham’s Greta Hammer, though, who shook free of Werner and Weymouth’s Gracie Richard after the 2-mile mark and extended her lead. Hammer was well clear of the field as she crossed the finish line of the 5k course in 18 minutes, 16.6 seconds. The always-consistent Richard powered home for the silver medal and 18:39.8 ahead of an exhausted Werner, who took third in 18:55.4

Hammer exacted a little revenge over Werner, who defeated the Needham harrier on her home course in a dual meet on Sep. 20, winning by six seconds over 3.1 miles, 18:40 to 18:46.

A pack of six passed the first mile in 5:50 and that was whittled down to Hammer, Werner and Richard at 2-miles. Hammer put in a big move shortly after and the race was over.

“The mile felt good,” said Hammer, who was third last year. “It was definitely hot. I wanted to run with the leaders and work my way up a little bit into the lead. I was just hoping I could stay in front once I took the lead.”

Weymouth and Needham finished with identical scores of 67 points, but it was the Wildcats who came away with the win in the tiebreaker as their sixth runner finished one place ahead of the Rockets’ No. 6 girl. Ciara Evans of Newton North was a strong fourth in 19:03.8 and Bridget Reidy of Wellesley rounded out the top five in 19:10.1. Framingham’s top runner, Sasha Lamakina, was eighth in 19:16 and Braintree’s Caitlyn Chang ran well for ninth in 19:18.8. Emma Tuxbury of Wellesley finished 10th in 19:21.7.

Boys

WRENTHAM — Newton North’s Gabriel Grove considers himself very lucky to be running in the Bay State Conference.

“It’s a privilege to run in this conference,” said the senior. “There are a lot of great runners and Brookline is the best team in the state and one of the best in the country.”

Most of Grove’s competitors probably wished he took Saturday’s BSC Championships off.

Grove, a 4:26 miler and 9:21 2-miler, was brilliant.

Racing on the rolling Wrentham Developmental Center layout under bright skies in warm temperatures, the Tiger senior passed the mile in 4:49 with Wellesley’s Stephen Goehringer and Eli Merritt in tow. Grove made a strong move halfway through and put daylight between himself and the two harriers. He extended his lead and leaped across the finish line in a quick time of 15 minutes, 47.8 seconds for the win. Goehringer was also under 16 minutes with a second-place finish in 15:58.

Altamo Aschkenasy led Brookline’s juggernaut with third in 16:00.6. The Warriors’ top-five scoring harriers finished within 31 seconds of each other to take the team title with 39 points. The Raiders were a strong second with 41 points.

Grove, who has made the leap into the group of elite harriers in the state, was confident coming in that he’d be among the front runners. “I knew I was going to be in the front pack,” he said. “As soon as I got to halfway I knew I had it. I felt more relaxed (with a 4:49 first mile) than a lot of other races. This is the first race we’d tapered for all season.”

Along with Grove, Sean Kerin was the lone harrier in the top 10 who wasn’t from Brookline or Wellesley. The Walpole runner had a great day with ninth in 16:20.3.

“As a team, we obviously work hard for this,” said Little. “We practiced all week for this. We knew what they had, we knew their defense, and all it came down to was making the right reads, making the right plays, knowing what to do when we’re in that situation. I just think we really executed today.”

Little completed 14-of-20 passes for 186 yards, while adding 63 yards rushing, and Belmont Hill (5-1) needed just about every one of his plays in this one. He provided his group a 7-0 edge with 6:37 to play in the opening quarter, as he lobbed a 49-yard touchdown pass down the sideline to Charlie Walsh. Belmont Hill extended its lead to 14-7 in the second quarter, as Little connected with Nick Andersen for a 6-yard touchdown strike.

BB&N’s Henry Machnik knotted the score at 14-all with 50 seconds to play in the second quarter as he sprinted eight yards on a quarterback keeper.

After BB&N took its first lead at 21-14 off a four-yard touchdown rush by Bo MacCormack, Belmont Hill struck for consecutive scores in a span of just 1:54. Little connected with Andersen for a 13-yard touchdown with 5:39 left in the third quarter, before Little found the end zone on a 4-yard touchdown rush, helping his group regain the lead at 28-21.

MacCormack would knot the score at 28-all with a 14-yard touchdown rush with 11:56 left in regulation, but the Knights’ offense fizzled out from that point. Little would rush for two more touchdowns in the fourth quarter himself, icing the win.

“This is a kid who works really hard,” Belmont Hill coach Anthony Fucillo said. “He’s only a sophomore, and every game, he has matured. He has gotten so much better. He has developed leadership skills, and it couldn’t be better for him to cap it off with an awesome game today against a really good football team.”

Since opening its season with a 24-0 loss to Lawrence Academy, Belmont Hill has won five straight. The school will look to keep its momentum going against Milton Academy next week.

“That’s an awesome (BB&N) team,” Fucillo said. “They’re so well-coached, they have so many good players. But I think we’ve established that we’re a really good football team in this league too. I think every win for us is big. I try to preach that every week, that it doesn’t matter who we’re playing, our kids need to treat every game (like it matters). But to beat a team like that in the fashion we did, being able to run the ball at the end, I’m really proud of our guys.”

Jimmy Nardone had two touchdowns as part of a rushing attack that totaled 232 yards as St. John’s Prep finished off an undefeated regular season with a 34-6 win over BC High on Saturday afternoon at Murphy Family Stadium.

The win gives St. John’s Prep a share of the Catholic Conference title and all but guarantees it the top overall seed in the Div. 1 State Tournament.

“We are focused on bigger things so we are going to try and carry some momentum into the playoffs,” Nardone said. “We’re going to try to play our best now that the playoffs are here.”

St. John’s Prep’s dominance throughout the game was impressive. It was coming off a statement win over rival Catholic Memorial but showed no signs of a letdown. Starting running back Dylan Aliberti was out with a lower body injury. Senior lineman Wells Gillet was also sidelined.

Defensively, the visitors were relentless. Highlighted by defensive end Mason McSweeney and linebacker John Dorggitis, the Prep held BC High to 54 yards of offense in the first half.

Deacon Robillard, meanwhile, connected with Gael Garcia for a seven-yard touchdown pass late in the opening quarter to put SJP up 7-0. They stretched the lead when an errant BC High snap went through the end zone for a safety to make it 9-0. With Aliberti sidelined, St. Pierre turned to Jeff Quigley. The junior back made an instant impact taking a handoff inside for a 34-yard touchdown and a 16-0 advantage.

“I thought we played tough and the defense was outstanding but I would like to see a more complete effort from our offense,” St. John’s Prep coach Brian St. Pierre said. “(BC High) could not run the football. They tried but that was not going to happen.”

Nardone proved useful in short yardage situations. The senior quarterback picked up a key first down on the first scoring drive, had a three-yard touchdown run in the third to make it 27-0, and then supplied the final score of the game with a 12-yard touchdown pass to Will Kent.

Junior Yussef Oulalite headed the ball in off a deflection to boost the Dragons over Boston International 3-2 at Madison Park High Saturday morning.

“We worked on set pieces for like an hour yesterday,” said Dragons coach Patrick Mudie about the late tally. Defending, we gave up the first one of the game, but a lot of repetitions and we have a lot of quality guys.”

“It’s crazy,” Oulalite said about winning his second straight BCL title. “We’ve gone through a lot of hard times this season and a lot of ups and downs. We lost to (Boston International) two times and it feels amazing to beat them today.”

The tally came in stoppage time and was the second goal of the second half as senior Santiago Vanegas also connected on a header in the 57th minute.

The first half was dominated by Boston International (16-2) as they delivered seven shots on goal, including a tally for junior Ruben Barros off a corner in the ninth minute.

Latin Academy (13-5) netted the equalizer on their first real scoring opportunity in the 26th minute as sophomore Giovanni Waterman netted one home to make it a 1-1 contest.

The Lions ended up taking back the lead in the 38th as sophomore Jerry Registe hit a strike from 25 yards out to make it 2-1 at the half.

Senior Santiago Gutierrez came up huge in net with eight of his 12 saves in the first half as he weathered the storm from the Lions in the first 20 minutes.

“It was a challenging season and it definitely wasn’t easy,” said the BCL Most Valuable Player. “Being able to come out and perform well is always the best feeling because you know it isn’t just for yourself, but for your team.”

In the Boston City League girls’ soccer championship, a strong defense and potent offense led by a hat trick for junior Lucy Osowiecki was more than enough in a 5-0 victory for Latin Academy over East Boston. It is the second straight BCL title for the Dragons.

“It’s been an honor coaching these girls,” said Latin Academy coach Phi Nguyen. “These girls have done most of the hard work. There’s still more. There’s playoffs. Overall, I am loving it.”

Osowiecki got the scoring started as she netted a penalty kick in the fourth minute to put Latin Academy (11-3-3) in the driver’s seat 1-0 over East Boston (12-4-1).

Osowiecki added another in the 26th minute as she dribbled down the length of the field and booted it in from about 15 yards out across to the other side of the goal.

“It’s nice,” Osowiecki said about winning the BCL title for the second straight year. “It’s exhilarating”

Senior Lilah Fleischer added a tally in the 33rd minute as Latin Academy led 3-0 at the half.

Osowiecki added her third tally after eluding a couple of defenders just outside the box in the 46th minute. Mariana Vanegas finished off the scoring with a tally in the 57th minute.

“We have so many attacking weapons,” Nguyen said. “Everyone is an attacking weapon on the team.”

In net, eighth grader Madelyn Andrade needed just four saves as the defense came up big for the Dragons. Ella Curran ended up winning Most Valuable Player.

On the final drive of Saturday’s game with Tabor Academy, Lawrence Academy coach Jason Swepson took the advice of his offensive line.

Instead of breaking a late tie with a field goal, the Spartans went for a touchdown, and got it, to earn a 28-21 win between two Independent School League unbeatens.

With the win, Lawrence Academy stays perfect with a 6-0 record, while Tabor drops to 5-1. Both are in good position to make a NEPSAC bowl game.

That final drive started at the Lawrence 35-yard line with 3:23 to go. Lawrence had been mounting long drives all game.

“Perfect amount (of time), because we have a kicker (Rollin Hughes),” Swepson said. “We’ve just got to get in field-goal range. We got into field-goal range, and then the o-line said, ‘We want to score a touchdown.’ I was playing for a field goal. O-line said, ‘Hell no, let’s score a touchdown.’ Credit to them.”

The 10-play drive featured eight runs, capped by a 2-yarder from Jordan Johnson, who finished with 59 yards on 12 carries. Quarterback Michael Landolfi added 67 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries. He also completed 16 of 22 passes for 159 yards.

“He’s one of the better players I’ve ever been around, and I’ve been around some great ones, with Matt Ryan, Russell Wilson, Hasselbeck,” Swepson said. “You go right down the line, and this kid is with them with composure, leadership skills. Bottom line is he’s a winner. Colleges need to recognize that. He’s a winner.”

“There could have been a minute left, I feel confident in my guys that we can go down there and score,” Landolfi said. “The o-line played really well. This was like a turning point for them. Tabor Academy, that’s a completely different team from last year. Oh, my goodness! They’re really well coached. They’re a really good team. They’ll be good. But, yeah, full confidence in my guys. There could be 30 seconds on the clock, I’ll feel comfortable. The way we can burn the clock, that really helped, too.”

After Johnson’s touchdown, Tabor only had 11 seconds to answer, and the Spartans stopped the final drive.

Lawrence opened the game with a 14-play drive that ended in a 32-yard field goal from Hughes.

Tabor answered with the sensational Hugo Djeumeni on a 55-yard touchdown run. Djeumeni finished with 137 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries.

Landolfi ran in a 4-yarder and a two-point conversion late in the second quarter, but Tabor answered. Quarterback Timothy Bengston scored from a yard out just before the half after a perfect hook and ladder to receiver Kaiden Drinkwater and Djeumeni netted 39 yards as the Seawolves took a 14-11 lead.

Another Hughes field goal, again from 32 yards out, tied it up in the third quarter. After the Lawrence defense made a stop, Darnell Cicero-Bronson rumbled for a 22-yard touchdown over the left end.

Djeumeni struck again, this time from five yards out with 3:29 left, but that was too much time for Lawrence.

Jake Kennedy ran for two touchdowns and returned an interception for another, combining with two rushing touchdowns apiece from Max Dresens and Michael Caulfield as Wayland (6-2) ran all over Newton South in a 53-13 Dual County League win. … Senior Cooper Tarantino racked up 76 yards and a score on nine carries, adding 59 yards and a touchdown through the air for Lincoln-Sudbury (7-1) in a 36-14 win over Westford Academy (5-3).

Luiz Barbosa ran for one score and Jack Lombardo threw for another as Medford (5-3) defeated Lynn English 18-9 in the Greater Boston League. … Abass Atoui rushed for 150 yards and three scores as Revere (2-6) blanked Malden, 27-0.

Ronan O’Connell threw for one score and ran for another as Winchester (7-1) defeated Lexington 28-6 in the Middlesex Liberty. … In the Freedom Division, Connor Brophy found pay-dirt four times for Melrose (6-2) in a 41-28 victory over Wilmington (4-4). … Anthony Gerrior completed 11-of-22 passes for 228 yards and two touchdowns as Burlington (5-3) defeated Watertown, 35-7. Ryan Brooks caught six passes for 167 yards and both scores. … Kevin Gilmartin ran for a touchdown and also caught a TD pass as Stoneham (5-3) beat Wakefield, 22-6.

Stu Burnham ran for 101 yards and a touchdown as Old Colony (7-1) defeated South Shore 12-0 in the Mayflower Athletic Conference.

Dillon Chapman rushed for a pair of scores as Monomoy (3-5) defeated St. John Paul 20-14 in the Cape and Islands.

Zach Wolinski scored three times as North Andover (5-2) defeated Tewksbury 43-20 in the Merrimack Valley Conference.

Peabody looked like it was going to cruise to an unbeaten regular season and a Northeastern Conference Lynch Division title when it led Salem 20-0 early in the fourth quarter.

Then like a tidal wave, the Witches erupted for 26 fourth-quarter points. But it was the final two that escaped them which were the difference. Devante Ozuna was stopped half a yard short on a two-point conversion attempt with no time left, giving Peabody a 27-26 win over their longtime rivals.

“I don’t know how many times Peabody and Salem have played over the years but that has to be one of the best football games contested between these two teams,” Peabody coach Mark Bettencourt said. “That is a very good football team over there in Salem.”

There was no indication a frantic finish was on tap when Reymi Andino returned a fumble for a touchdown on the second play of the fourth quarter to give the Tanners (8-0) a three-touchdown lead.

That’s when the Witches’ (6-2) high-flying offense caught fire. Salem needed only three plays after the fumble return to get on the board as Corey Grimes (17-of-31, 248 yards, 3 TD) hit Quinn Rocco Ryan for a 30 yard score to make it 20-7.

After a three and out by Peabody on the next series, the Witches kept right on coming. Grimes and company needed only 90 seconds to march 66 yards and cut the gap to 20-14 as Ozuna caught a pass along the right sideline and took it 37 yards for a score with 6:51 to go.

“Corey is everything we thought he’d be and 25 times more. He is a warrior,” Bettencourt said.

Desperately in need of something to stem Salem’s momentum, Peabody tried to bully its way to the first downs that would kill the clock. But a false start and two runs were followed by a pick six from Grimes, who took Salem’s third interception of Luke Maglione 34 yards to tie the game after a missed extra point.

With the Salem crowd in a frenzy, the Tanners tried to drive for a potential winning score as the clock ticked down. Jaden Roman, however, had other ideas as he broke free for a 59-yard score to give Peabody back the lead with 2:38 left.

Salem tried to answer one more time as Ozuna hit Grimes for 34 on a reverse pass to get the drive going. The Witches reached the Peabody 2 before a holding penalty and an incompletion left four seconds on the clock and the ball at the 12.

On the final play, Grimes threw up a prayer that a leaping Julian Ortiz answered with a spectacular catch that set up the dramatic conversion attempt.

“We knew that coach (Matt) Bouchard was going to go for two there. I would have done the same thing. Our guys just made a great play on a great player,” Bettencourt said.

The senior running back dashed for 273 yards and had four total touchdowns, leading the Middleboro Sachems (6-2) to a South Shore League victory over Abington (6-2).

“I’ve been grinding at practice,” Sotonwa said. “After that, I just bring it out here and show the talent.”

The Sachems marched into Green Wave territory on the first drive of the game but Abington was able to get a stop on fourth-and-one to neutralize the opportunity. The Green Wave were quickly forced to punt, but got another fourth down stop on the ensuing drive

The Green Wave would then march down the field, via several long runs from the trio of Ryan Simonetti, Ryan Solimini and Nazir Paulding. Facing a fourth-and-four near the goal line, a Michael Riley pass was tipped and intercepted by Sachems defensve back Andrew Falk.

“(The interception) completely shifted the momentum,” Middleboro quarterback Nate Goodine said. “We were driving on offense and then we would have that one play that caused us to lose yards and we wouldn’t recover. That interception changed our morale and from there on we were able to keep our foot on their throat and not let up.”

Two plays later, Sotonwa took it 73 yards for the game’s first touchdown.

“The birthday boy decided to run for a big game,” Sachems’ coach Patrick Kingman said.” He carried the load and we have been waiting for that all year.”

The Green Wave would have a three-and-out on the next drive, and the Sachems would respond with a lengthy drive that ended with a four-yard touchdown from Goodine to Sotonwa that brought the first half to a close.

Chasing 12 and starting with the ball, the Green Wave needed to get something going. The team did just that, marching down the field and finishing the job via a four-yard run from Solimini.

This momentum didn’t last for long as Middleboro charged down the field and Sotonwa scored his second rushing touchdown via an 11-yard run.

This brought the game to the fourth quarter, and a muffed punt from Abington gave the Sachems the ball once again. One play later, Sotonwa had his fourth total touchdown.

A Nate Goodine touchdown would round out the scoring, giving the Sachems a dominant league victory.

“Our biggest thing that we did is not give up any big plays,” Kingman said. “Big, over the top plays. We’ve given up big, third down plays in the past and didn’t do that today. We kept them behind the chains. How can you not be happy about that?”

But the Scarlet Hawks still have a healthy Nick Araujo, and that can be plenty.

Behind another monster effort from Araujo and a smothering defense, Milford rolled to a 24-0 win over Franklin on Friday night.

Milford (7-1) projects as a high seed in the D3 playoffs. Franklin falls to 5-3.

“It’s obvious, we’re down some kids right now,” Milford coach Dale Olson said. “Lost a couple kids for the year, starters. Hopefully, we’ll get one back if we make a little run. Nick’s a heck of a player. We gave him 16 touches in the first half, only gave him one that was on purpose in the second half. Defense was lights out tonight. Not too often that an (coach) Eian Bain Franklin team gets shut out, so I’m really proud of our kids tonight.”

Araujo had 165 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries. He was also 3-for-3 on extra points, and drilled a 39-yard field goal. He missed a later one from 46, but it was an otherwise flawless performance from the senior who can do a little bit of everything.

“A lot of dudes stepped up,” Araujo said. “We have a sophomore starting at outside ‘backer (Joey McGee), and he had a huge pick to turn things around in the third (quarter).”

Anthony Maietta had two interceptions for Milford, which scored on its first possession and never looked back. Quarterback Jack Buckley threw for 76 yards and rushed for another 52.

It took only five plays for Milford to drive 60 yards and score on the game’s first possession. Araujo blasted right up the middle for a 41-yard touchdown, and Milford held a 7-0 lead just 1:28 into the contest.

Early in the second quarter, Buckley kept it for a 1-yard touchdown, and the Scarlet Hawks held a 14-0 lead with 8:20 left in the half. At the end of a 13-play drive, Araujo hit his 39-yard field goal, and Milford went into the break with a 17-0 lead. After McGee’s pick and 35-yard return, Araujo scored from a yard out to help complete the scoring.

Franklin’s Andrew Fraulo rushed for 55 yards for the visitors.

“There’s going to be no letdown between Milford and Franklin, I can promise you that,” Olson said on the possibility of a letdown following the KP loss. “This dates back a long time. Like I said, I’m just proud of our kids. It’s a good way to get ready for the playoffs. We’ll wait until Sunday, Monday, whenever they tell us who we’re playing. We’ll be ready for the Division 3 playoffs, that’s for sure.”

Thanks to short field positions and a couple timely turnovers, the Crimson Tide outscored Lynn Classical 34-6 in the second half en route to a 43-12 victory over the Rams at Everett Memorial Stadium on Friday night.

“We played together,” said Everett coach Justin Flores about the strong second half. “The defense played well all game and the offense finally started to play well together.”

To start the third, both offenses were stuck in a rut. With Lynn Classical (5-3) backed up in their own end zone, Everett (7-1) forced a short punt to start their second drive of the half at the Rams’ 12.

Three plays later, Boston College-commit Christian Zamor rushed it in from two yards out to make it a 16-6 Crimson Tide lead.

“I looked at him in the eyes and I told him that we are going to get on his back a little bit,” Flores said about what he said to Zamor at the half. “He delivered as he always does.”

The defense forced a fourth-down turnover and the offense once again got on the board. Two plays later junior Carlos Rodrigues hit senior Domenic Papa for a 49-yard catch-and-score as Everett made it 23-6 after three.

After a Javon Clayborn 2-yard rushing score cut the deficit to 23-12, Zamor got in on the action again as he took it 31 yards to the house after a pick for sophomore Joao Barreiros to make it a 30-12 contest.

Zamor added a 20-yard pick-six with just over three minutes left to put the game away 43-12.

“We started off slow (in the) first half and we came out in the second half and started to play as a team,” said Zamor about the three picks as a team. “I am only able to make those plays when my guys are in their positions to make their plays. We came out and did what we had to do.”

In the first half, Everett opened up with a fury as just three plays in and with 1:13 taken off the clock junior Manny Santiago put the Crimson Tide up 7-0 with a rushing score from one yard. He also added a rushing score from eight yards out in the fourth to make it 37-12. He finished with 13 carries for 52 yards and two scores as the starting back.

Lynn Classical responded with an 11-play, 80-yard drive as Brian Vaughan kept it from a one-yard score. The two-point rush was no good so the Rams trailed 7-6 after one.

The defenses for both teams took it from there in the second as Everett senior Jayden Prophete had a pick on the next Rams’ drive. Everett then turned the ball over on downs on the ensuing drive at the Lynn Classical 2.

The Rams three plays later were called for an intentional grounding in the end zone, which gave Everett a safety to make it a 9-6 lead for the Crimson Tide.

Lynn Classical got the ball back after a defensive stop and drove it into the Everett red zone before a holding penalty and a sack for Zamor eventually forced a turnover on downs to basically end the half.

The Lady Cardinals grabbed their first championship since 2001 as Kiara Tejada (nine kills, two aces) and senior captain Barbara Wilson, who pretty much matched Tejada, had 10 kills, two aces and two digs in the win.

Tejada’s play outside was critical, finding spots in the short game and taking advantage of the Lady Cougars’ defense in the fourth and final game. The sophomore hitter came alive with four of her six kills just as Snowden crept back into things and only trailed by one, 16-15, looking to tie the series 2-2.

But Tejada and two aces from Naisha Marte sealed things up for Madison Park as it pulled away with a 24-17 lead enroute to the third win for the match victory and created the on-court frenzy for the Cardinals faithful.

“Coach just told me what to do, and I just started tipping but when I saw that the set was right, that’s when I started to kill (the ball),” said Tejada. “(Wilson) has really improved since day one with her hitting and is really a leader. To me, I aspire to be like her and hit just like her.”

Wilson, while a senior, is also only in her second year playing volleyball and was credited with the Most Outstanding Player of the Game for the Boston City League championships. Head coach William Harvey credited his young roster for pulling together the surprising victory.

“So, people do not realize that (Tejada) is only a sophomore and both of them are picking up the game really quickly,” said Harvey. “This whole season has been a slow swing, so it just came on at the right time so hopefully it’s going to be with them for the rest of their high school careers.”

In game two, Lady Cougars head coach Kim Molle called a timeout down three points with a sideout to the Lady Cardinals. Molle isn’t sure what clicked but Snowden didn’t make things easy for Madison Park and rattled off six of the final seven points to tie things 1-1 before inconsistent defense and untimely mistakes doomed the Lady Cougars the next two sets.

Playing from behind is usually a strength for Snowden, especially at the net, but Molle felt the pressure of the event may have been a factor.

“I think that we weren’t responding in the defensive way like we could have,” said Molle. “They were doing a lot of shorts and we weren’t picking up the shorts as much as we usually do, and it was just that both teams were equally as good as each other.

“Usually, we come from behind pretty well so I think it was just a lot of pressure, a lot of fanfare for them, and I think they got nervous ultimately and just couldn’t bring that back up. They had the heart, but they just couldn’t make it happen.”

The third and fourth games were tied midway through, but Madison Park was too strong on the outside and in the middle as setter Reishmell Tejada Arias had a game-high 18 assists while Emily Ramirez De Jesus added 16 digs and four aces for the Lady Cardinals. Both are also only second-year players for Harvey.

“I let (Tejada) know after the second set that Snowden was going to pick on her and the only way to stop that is to pick on them,” said Harvey. “Start picking your spots and tip, tip, tip – and when you get that chance – swing.”

On Friday, the Essex Superior Court denied Bishop Fenwick’s request for a preliminary injunction that would have temporarily nullified the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association’s (MIAA) postseason ban on the school for the 2023-24 athletic year. The ban will remain in place, leaving the Peabody school on the sidelines for the state tournaments.

While the decision is not overly surprising to many athletic and school administrators, it was not without deliberation. The Crusaders, represented by attorney Leo Fama, appeared before Justice Janice Howe of the Essex Superior Court on Monday afternoon in Lawrence. It took over three days for Howe to announce her decision.

“The MIAA is a voluntary member organization,” Howe wrote in her disposition. “For it to be effective in carrying out its purposes, its member schools agree to comply with MIAA rules.”

Bishop Fenwick received the first ever postseason ‘death penalty’ by the state’s athletic association for misleading multiple committees, most notably the Eligibility Appeal Board (EAB), on fifth-year waivers and then failure to take accountability. The lack of accountability is in opposition of MIAA Handbook rule 87.6. Much of the blame has resides with the school’s president Thomas Nunan. Fenwick received notice on June 8, but the information was made not available to the Fenwick student body or the public until July 21.

The Crusaders’ legal team tried to make the case that the MIAA’s punishment enforced ‘irreparable harm’ on its student-athletes. Howe, however, argued that the risk of irreparable harm actually weighed in favor of the MIAA.

“If there are no sanctions for violating the rules, the MIAA’s authority over its members is significantly diminished,” Howe wrote. “While the court does not want to discount the importance of participating in extracurricular activities, including athletics, for the student-participants, one must not forget that such participation is a privilege not a right.”

The MIAA’s statement included a hope of continuing to work with Bishop Fenwick going forward.

“The responsibility of accountability with each member school rests with each member school rests with each school’s leadership team,” an MIAA statement read. “In making decisions at the school level, the policies and procedures set forth by the member-driven Association must be followed. We are hopeful this decision allows everyone to move forward, and we welcome the opportunity to continue to work with Bishop Fenwick, a valued member of our Association.”

Nunan, the school’s president, expressed disappointment in the ruling in a statement and has yet to decide on how it will proceed.

“We have invested significant time and resources in advocating for our student-athletes and our Fenwick community,” Nunan wrote. “We will be discussing our options in the coming days.”

At a parent town hall on July 24, Nunan said the school would explore leaving the MIAA.
