Cross Country: Boys 4th, Girls Tie for 3rd in the League

By Ben Cao

The boys and girls Cross Country team wrapped up their regular season this past Tuesday with their meets against Stoneham. In what was described as a slippery, wet, rocky race conditions, the boys managed to pull out a win against the Spartans 25-31. The girls ran great races, keeping the meet close, but ended up losing the duel to Stoneham 31-24. With the conclusion of the regular season, the boys and girls team finish the season with a 6-3 record. The boy’s team finishes 4th in the Middlesex League behind Reading, Lexington, and Winchester, while the girls finish in a tie for 3rd with Melrose behind Lexington and Reading. Next Monday, November 2nd, the Cross Country teams head over to Woburn Country Club, where they will gut it out against the entire league at the annual Middlesex League Meet.

Jenna has played exceptional defense all season long. She is constantly breaking up the opponent’s offensive break aways. Her positive attitude is a pleasure to see on the field.

Seniors Lead Boy's Soccer to Victory

Led by the 11 seniors who are a part of the Boy's Varsity Soccer Team, Burlington beat Wakefield last night 2-1. AC Castellucio put in the go ahead goal 4 minutes into the second half, and the Burlington defense maintained the lead to finish out the game. The Devil's defense was lead by Mike Boeri and Trevor Dutton, while being anchored in the net by Juan Aguilar. Tyler Baczewski started the scoring with a chip over the keeper's head off of a pass from Lucas Restivo at the 24th minute mark.

The JV Boys Soccer team took the earlier contest, winning 6-1.

Freshman Volleyball Continues to Impress

by Mark Steinbach, FR
Not enough people are talking about what has been a remarkable story in BHS athletics, this year: the dominance of the girls’ freshmen volleyball team. As of mid-October the freshmen volleyball still has not lost a game, posting an impressive and somewhat surprising record of 7-0.

“We are successful because we communicate well with each other. This allows us to set up plays that win points,” says setter Nadia Eshraghi. “We have good serves that give us aces many times.” The team seems to perform and execute in every important aspect of the sport, serving and setting effectively, while also establishing good communication on the court. With Burlington lacking an organized youth volleyball league for girls and the program being rather new to BHS, this success seems to have come out of nowhere. Is it a surprise? “Yeah, it is a surprise,” says setter Lauren Utley, “but we just keep getting better, so now we expect to win every time we take the court.”

The improvement of this team certainly has to be traced back partly to the coach, Pat Magee. “He’s a great tip-giver,” says Nadia, “He tells us how to improve on certain skill areas and when he sees a problem, he works until it’s fixed.” Says Lauren, “He gives us all equal playing time and that brings us together because no one thinks they’re better than anyone else on the team.”

Overall, the success of this freshmen team is a very good sign for the still young volleyball program at BHS. If this dominance continues, the future looks very bright for the program in the near-future and beyond.
