City Council wants to bulldoze construction hours<br />

By Adam Swift<br />

Editor<br />

In an effort to curb excessive noise late<br />

at night and on the weekends, the City<br />

Council is looking to take action on construction<br />

hours.<br />

At the council’s recent industrial and<br />

community development meeting, Ward 1<br />

Councilor Jon Turco proposed a uniform<br />

set of construction operation hours for the<br />

city.<br />

“The purpose of this discussion is to<br />

have one set of hours of operation in the<br />

city ordinance, rather than the several set<br />

forth by several city boards,” said Turco.<br />

Turco proposed construction hours of<br />

Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 6<br />

p.m., Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and<br />

no construction on Sundays or holidays.<br />

The Torigian Senior Center<br />

is the most visible monument<br />

to the city’s commitment to<br />

senior citizens.<br />

But in joining the AARP<br />

Network of Age-Friendly<br />

Communities, Peabody is<br />

continuing to create environments<br />

that promote healthy<br />

and active aging and a good<br />

quality of life for older residents.<br />

Last week, appropriately<br />

enough during the Council on<br />

Aging’s Spring Fling at the<br />

Senior Center, there was a<br />

special ceremony welcoming<br />

Peabody to the Network of<br />

Age-Friendly Communities.<br />

Peabody is only the 10th community<br />

in the state to join the<br />

network, which is an affiliate<br />

of the World Health Organization<br />

global network.<br />

“Over the next five years,<br />

the city will work with partners<br />

to assess its age friendliness,<br />

and then create and<br />

implement a three-year-action<br />

plan,” stated Christopher<br />

think of the times we are in<br />

today,” said Dick St. Pierre, president<br />

of the Peabody Historical<br />

Society. “The sacrifices they<br />

made reminds us of the ideals we<br />

have as Americans.”<br />

The morning ceremony also<br />

included a wreath laying at the<br />

Ryder, chief of staff to Mayor<br />

Edward A. Bettencourt Jr.<br />

In addition to the Torigian<br />

Senior Center being the envy<br />

of the region, Ryder noted<br />

that it offers a multitude of<br />

senior services from transportation<br />

and meals to social<br />

services and adult day health.<br />

“We also hold special<br />

events geared toward seniors<br />

like the summer concert<br />

series and Senior Day<br />

at Brooksby Farm, among<br />

others,” Ryder said. “It seems<br />

only fitting that a city that so<br />

values its seniors be a member<br />

of the Global Network of<br />

Age-Friendly Communities.”<br />

Mark Festa, state director<br />

of the AARP, agreed with Ryder<br />

that the Torigian Senior<br />

Center is a jewel for the region’s<br />

senior citizens.<br />

“But much more than the<br />

physical building is the people<br />

who run it,” said Festa.<br />

“(Council on Aging Director<br />

Carolyn Wynn), have you ever<br />

seen her without a smile on<br />

her face? I don’t think so, and<br />

more importantly, that infectious<br />

enthusiasm reflects the<br />

respect the city has for its seniors.”<br />

In the entire country, there<br />

are only 165 Age-Friendly<br />

Communities, Festa said.<br />

“That shows that you are<br />

really on the forefront,” he<br />

said.<br />

Patriot pride in Peabody<br />

monument and a salute from the<br />

members of the Danvers Alarm<br />

List.<br />

“I often reflect on the fact that<br />

there are so many times when our<br />

nation has been tested and our<br />

people have been tested,” said<br />

Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt<br />

Jr. “The sacrifice, bravery, and<br />

strength that so many shared have<br />

made the city and the nation what<br />

it is today.”<br />

Rev. Dr. Bert White of the<br />

Danvers Alarm List Company,<br />

said his group and others like it<br />

help keep history alive.<br />

“The Danvers Alarm List follows<br />

the memory of these saints<br />

and how they fought for our<br />

safety and our freedom,” White<br />

said.<br />

Levine to stay on one more year as<br />

Peabody superintendent<br />

Before<br />

Get your car looking<br />

great this Spring!<br />

After<br />

Interim Superintendent<br />

Herb Levine will likely serve<br />

one more year as the head of<br />

the school district.<br />

The search for a new superintendent<br />

came to a temporary<br />

end last week, when the Peabody<br />

School Committee voted<br />

to request a waiver from the<br />

state’s Department of Education<br />

allowing Levine to stay<br />

on for another year because of<br />

a critical shortage of qualified<br />

superintendent candidates.<br />

The vote means Debra<br />

Ruggiero, the principal of<br />

Lynn’s Harrington School<br />

and the last finalist standing<br />

in the committee’s superintendent<br />

search, will not be<br />

offered the Peabody position.<br />

Committee members<br />

praised Ruggiero, but the<br />

members were united in saying<br />

they were disappointed<br />

there were no candidates<br />

brought forward with the kind<br />

of central office experience they<br />

believe Peabody needs. The two<br />

other finalists, John Oteri and<br />

Arthur Unobskey, were offered<br />

the top school jobs in Malden<br />

and Wayland, respectively, and<br />

withdrew from consideration<br />

in Peabody.<br />

“I think the three finalists<br />

we had were excellent people, I<br />

just think they lacked the district<br />

experience,” said School<br />

Committee member Tom Rossignoll.<br />

“We want somebody<br />

with district experience, and<br />

that was not offered to us.”<br />

Several committee members<br />

also said they believed<br />

the search process, which was<br />

overseen by the Massachusetts<br />

Association of School<br />

Committees, started a little<br />

too late this year to bring in<br />

enough qualified candidates.<br />

“I think one of the problems<br />

with starting a little late is that<br />

candidates were scooped up<br />

quickly,” said School Committee<br />

member Brandi Carpenter.<br />

“If we’re going to do it again,<br />

we need to start earlier and we<br />

need to think outside the box.”<br />

Carpenter also said she felt<br />

Ruggiero was an excellent candidate,<br />

but that she and the other<br />

finalists lacked the budget<br />

and contract negotiation skills<br />

needed in such a large district.<br />

“I too, although it was not<br />

the fault of the candidates,<br />

was disappointed in the pool,”<br />

said committee member Jarrod<br />

Hochman. “This is a quasi-urban<br />

community with over<br />

6,000 students, over 1,000 employees,<br />

and a $72 million budget.<br />

We had candidates who did<br />

not have experience with collective<br />

bargaining, and not one<br />

candidate had experience formulating<br />

a budget beyond the<br />

building or department level.”<br />

Committee members noted<br />

that the process next year<br />

should wrap up by March, rather<br />

than April, in an effort to get<br />

a jump on the best candidates.<br />

For Levine, the 2017-18<br />

school year will be his third<br />

year in a row as interim superintendent<br />

in Peabody. The<br />

former Salem school chief was<br />

also the interim superintendent<br />

in Peabody during the<br />

2011-12 school year.<br />

Levine said he is willing to<br />

stay on in the interim position<br />

for another year, but that he<br />

was drawing a line in the sand.<br />

“I’m not going to work beyond<br />

that; I’m going to be 70<br />

years old,” he said. “I’m proud<br />

to have the privilege to steer<br />

the ship for one more year.”<br />

Turco. “(Talarico) would be<br />

able to approve that, and if he<br />

does, I’d like to see notification to<br />

the ward councilor.”<br />

Councilor-at-Large Thomas<br />

Walsh agreed that there should<br />

be more leeway given to private<br />

residents to work on their homes.<br />

“My concern is that there are<br />

homeowners who work Monday<br />

through Friday who do their own<br />

home improvement work on the<br />

weekends,” said Walsh. “They<br />

should be allowed to work on<br />

Sunday if they are going to replace<br />

a window or something else.<br />

Giving leeway to the building inspector<br />

is the way to go.”<br />

Ward 6 Councilor Barry Sinewitz<br />

went a step further, stating he doesn’t<br />

weekends should apply to private<br />

homeowners at all.<br />

“We’re talking about commercial<br />

construction in commercial<br />

districts and commercial construction<br />

in residential districts,”<br />

said Sinewitz. He said he also has<br />

concerns about commercial construction<br />

outdoors on Saturdays.<br />

Sinewitz also noted that any<br />

change in construction hours of operation<br />

would constitute a zoning<br />

change and would need to go before<br />

the Planning Board and to a public<br />

hearing.<br />

Turco said he would work with<br />

Talarico in the coming weeks on<br />

exact language for the hours of operation<br />

ordinance and bring it back<br />

before the City Council later this<br />

month.<br />

MORE POWER TO YOU<br />

If your mobility is severely restricted, you might want to think about<br />

getting a “power wheelchair” to increase your independence without<br />

sapping your energy. You can select the right type of wheelchair in consultation<br />

with a physical therapist or physiatrist (doctor specializing in rehabilitation),<br />

who can make recommendations about leg/arm rests and other options<br />

based on your strength and ability. If you expect to use the power wheelchair<br />

outdoors as well as indoors, you should look for a model with high ground<br />

clearance. Also check for turning radius and light weight (if it needs to be<br />

lifted into an automobile). Give careful consideration to battery power and<br />

range, as well. Most wheelchair batteries last for 15-20 miles between<br />

charges.<br />

At VILLAGE PHARMACY, we carry a wide range of durable medical<br />

equipment for rent or purchase. Let us assist you with your home medical<br />

needs to ensure a better quality of living. While we typically have plenty of<br />

rental inventory in stock, it is best to call ahead and reserve the needed<br />

equipment. For more information, please call 781-334-3133. We are located<br />

in the Colonial Shopping Center.<br />

HINT: Since a power wheelchair is usually reimbursed by Medicare only<br />

once every five years, it is important to initially select the correct size and<br />

model.<br />

Sports<br />

D’Angelo is perfect in win over Revere<br />

By Anne Marie Tobin<br />

PEABODY — What a week it has been for the Peabody<br />

High baseball team.<br />

The Tanners opened the season with wins against two<br />

teams (St. John’s Prep and Danvers) that had humiliated<br />

them last year, then defeated Saugus Thursday in their<br />

home opener.<br />

That was nothing compared to what happened Saturday.<br />

Alex D’Angelo, making his first-ever appearance in a<br />

varsity game, did the unthinkable. The junior threw the<br />

rarest game of all, a perfect game. He faced 21 batters and<br />

retired 21 batters in the Tanners’ 6-0 win over Revere at<br />

Bezemes Field Saturday morning.<br />

The game was a pitchers’ duel until the sixth inning<br />

when Peabody scored five runs to cap the win.<br />

Defensively, D’Angelo had a little help from his friends.<br />

“Everyone had my back, my teammates just got behind<br />

me and let me pitch the way I wanted to pitch,” D’Angelo<br />

said. “I was locating my fastball and kept everything low,<br />

but when I didn’t, they just hit pop ups and my teammates<br />

made big plays for me.”<br />

In the top of the fourth inning, Chris Gillen and Jake<br />

Doherty saved a hit with a bang-bang play on a grounder<br />

to third. Gillen fielded the ball, but his throw was a bit off<br />

the mark on the home plate side of the first base bag.<br />

“Doherty made a circus play, taking the throw and was<br />

pulled off the bag, but he reached back and tagged the guy<br />

to get the out,” Peabody coach Mark Bettencourt said. “It<br />

was just a great play.”<br />

In the top of the sixth inning, it was right fielder Nick<br />

Palma’s turn to play hero.<br />

“Not only did he have a great day at the plate, going<br />

three-for-three with two RBI, he made an incredible<br />

diving, shoestring catch to keep the no-hitter and perfect<br />

game alive,” said Bettencourt. “That was another really<br />

big play that stood out.”<br />

Ultimately, however, it was D’Angelo who got the job<br />

done, but it was nerve wracking to say the least.<br />

With two outs in the top of the final inning, he threw three<br />

straight balls to the 21st batter he faced, third baseman Matt<br />

Cravotta.<br />

“Things had been really quiet on the bench, nobody<br />

was saying anything and everybody was just leaving<br />

Alex alone as you always do when a no-hitter, let alone<br />

a perfect game is on the line,” said Bettencourt. “When<br />

the count was 3-0, we all thought, ‘oh no, oh no,’ we<br />

Peabody High grad DiSciullo mixing it up very well<br />

By Anne Marie Tobin<br />

2006 Peabody High school graduate Rico DiSciullo, a 5-9 featherweight<br />

at 145 pounds, returned to the cage for his ninth professional Mixed Martial<br />

Arts (MMA) Classic Entertainment 43 (CES 43) against Philadelphia’s<br />

Matt Lozano Saturday night at North Shore Music Theatre in Beverly.<br />

DiSciullo, who lives in Peabody, defeated Lozano in a unanimous<br />

decision.<br />

DiSciullo, who trains under the Sityodtong Boston banner, now holds<br />

an impressive record of 7-1, with the only loss coming in a “no-contest”<br />

bout.<br />

DiSciullo was anxious to bounce back from the first loss of his MMA<br />

career and expects to have many supporters rooting him on at the fight.<br />

The fight will also be streamed live on FloCambat.com.<br />

“This is the biggest fight of my career,” Rico says. “I (couldn’t) wait<br />

to get back in the cage and put on a show for everyone. This is what I live<br />

for,” said DiSciullo.<br />

“This (was) a make-or-break fight for me, in a way, because I need to<br />

get back in the win column. I want to show everyone that my loss was a<br />

fluke and get back on track to a CES title shot and an eventual opportunity<br />

in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Octagon.”<br />

DiSciullo got hooked on fighting shortly after graduating from Peabody<br />

High School.<br />

One day, he went out for a jog. While running past Sityodtong Boston<br />

he heard bells and people punching bags inside the building. He began<br />

training almost immediately and hasn’t looked back.<br />

DiSciullo says MMA has changed his life for the better. He hopes to<br />

someday fight in the UFC (like his childhood friend, Charles Rosa, also<br />

of Peabody), but he continues to work a day job doing industrial cleaning.<br />

“I have a lot of big goals in MMA. I have a lot of people supporting me,<br />

so I can’t let them down.”<br />

Saturday night in Beverly, he did not.<br />

Alex D’Angelo, in his first-ever varsity game, mowed ‘em<br />

down at Bezemes Diamond this past Saturday, throwing a<br />

perfect game against Revere.<br />

couldn’t believe it.”<br />

D’Angelo buckled down and threw a strike. His next<br />

pitch was not a strike, but it was fouled off to bring the<br />

count to 3-2 and set the stage.<br />

“I had thrown the three straight balls, and had to recollect<br />

myself,” said D’Angelo. “He leaves the 3-0 pitch, the<br />

strike, then I threw him a high pitch and he swings at it. It<br />

would have been a ball, so he kind of saved me there. That<br />

3-0 pitch was probably the toughest pitch I had ever made,<br />

then had to do it all over again.<br />

“All I remember about the last pitch was running the<br />

ball toward first for an underhand toss to Jake, and all I<br />

Rico DiSciullo is now 7-1 in Mixed Martial Arts competition.<br />

could see was this big gigantic smile on his face, he really<br />

lit up as he was catching that ball.”<br />

D’Angelo said he wasn’t nervous, but felt a sense of<br />

anxiety, especially after the long sixth inning.<br />

“I was really pacing, not in a nervous way, but I was must<br />

anxious to get back out there,” he said. “I remember thinking,<br />

why are we scoring so many runs, I wished it was still a 1-0<br />

game so I could finish, but no one was talking to me, they<br />

were whispering with each other so I knew they knew.<br />

To put it all in perspective, in 140 years of Major League<br />

Baseball in more than 210,000 games, only 23 pitchers<br />

have thrown a perfect game, and nobody has ever done it<br />

more than once.<br />

In Peabody, however, perfection isn’t as rare as you might<br />

think.<br />

On April 29, 2014, softball pitcher Shelbi Wilson, now<br />

a sophomore on the Wheaton College softball team, faced<br />

(and retired) all 21 Gloucester batters in a 9-0 Tanners’<br />

win in an outing for the ages, the only perfect game coach<br />

Butch Melanaphy had witnessed in his tenure.<br />

“Nobody realized what she had done and that includes<br />

Shelbi,” said Melanaphy with a laugh. “They were all<br />

in shock when they found out at the end of the game.<br />

Watching the way she pitched today was truly unbelievable.”<br />

Wilson struck out eight, and received some help<br />

from an airtight defense.<br />

D’Angelo finished with only five strikeouts, but like<br />

Wilson, was aided by a perfect defensive effort to pull<br />

off the incredible feat. Bettencourt said it was a total team<br />

effort with every fielder on the team except one, center<br />

fielder Jake Zeuli, making a putout.<br />

“To be honest, we were planning to split the game,”<br />

Bettencourt said. “We hoped to get four innings from Alex<br />

and have Will Diezemann finish up. What was really impressive<br />

was that Alex had only five strikeouts so we had<br />

to make 16 plays in the field for outs.”<br />

While perfect games are rare, Bettencourt knows a<br />

thing or two about them, having witnessed two in the last<br />

two years, the first one tossed by his 9-year old daughter<br />

Abigail two years ago in the semifinals of the state Little<br />

League state championship softball tournament.<br />

“That game against Assabet Valley was the only other<br />

perfect game that I have ever been witness to as a coach or<br />

player,” he said.<br />

When asked what he thinks his next start will be like,<br />

D’Angelo said, “I don’t know, but it can only go downhill<br />

compared to a perfect game.”<br />

Girls tennis marks Patriots day with a win<br />

By Anne Marie Tobin<br />

PEABODY — The Peabody<br />

girls tennis team celebrated<br />

Patriots’ Day by picking up its<br />

first win of the season, defeating<br />

visiting Malden 3-2 at Peabody<br />

High.<br />

Shaelyn Kelley and Angela<br />

Ferrer picked up the Tanners’ first<br />

point of the match with a 6-3, 6-1<br />

win over previously undefeated<br />

Hong-Li Zheng and Tiffany Yu.<br />

“I think they were a little<br />

shaken up as they had not lost<br />

a set all season,” Malden coach<br />

Cheryl Camassa said. “It was<br />

a different level of competition<br />

that they had not seen before, so I<br />

think they didn’t know what him<br />

them.”<br />

Malden’s Nikita Puri and Astha<br />

Lama turned tables at second doubles,<br />

defeating Lindsey Kauroyen<br />

and April Horvath 6-0, 6-2 to<br />

level the match at 1-1.<br />

The second and third singles<br />

matches were shaping up to<br />

be anyone’s guess. Peabody’s<br />

Laura Franca was up a set in the<br />

third singles match over Saeko<br />

Yonetani after winning the first<br />

set easily, 6-4. Meanwhile at<br />

second singles, Isabella Valencia<br />

was down a set after losing the<br />

first set 6-4 to Emily Zou.<br />

Valencia led 4-3 after a service<br />

break, but Zou broke back to tie<br />

the match at 4-4. Zou won the<br />

final two games to close out the<br />

set and put Malden on top 2-1.<br />

“Isabella is a very cerebral<br />

player, she’s a very smart girl<br />

in the top four of her class, and<br />

I think she may been letting little<br />

things bother her today, like the<br />

wind and the slow pace of play,”<br />

Peabody coach Lorraine Benoit<br />

said. “She needs to focus on just<br />

closing out the match.”<br />

Simultaneously, Franca and<br />

Yonetani were also locked in a<br />

4-4 tie. Yonetani won the last<br />

two games, the first with a service<br />

break, to force a decisive<br />

third set.<br />

Meanwhile in the first singles<br />

match, Brooke Hodas defeated<br />

Sam Tso by injury default to tie<br />

the match at 2-2.<br />

Tso won the first set in a tiebreaker,<br />

7-6 (9-7).<br />

The first set was back-andforth.<br />

Hodas led 5-4, but Tso<br />

broke serve to tie the match at<br />

five all, then held to take a 6-5<br />

lead. Hodas held serve to send<br />

the match into a tiebreaker.<br />

Neither player led by more than<br />

a point in the tiebreaker.<br />

Tied a 7-7, Hodas double<br />

faulted, then played Tso’s second<br />

serve long to give Tso the set, 7-6.<br />

In the second set, Hodas<br />

jumped out to a 4-2 lead before<br />

Tso was forced to retire from the<br />

match with an injury.<br />

With the score knotted at 2-2,<br />

the only match left on the court<br />

was the winner-take-all third singles<br />

match between Yonetani and<br />

Franca. Franca secured the match<br />

for Peabody with a 6-1 win. The<br />

win was the second straight at<br />

third singles for Franca, who was<br />

Peabody’s only winner in a 4-1<br />

loss to Danvers last Thursday.<br />

“It was great, we all watched<br />

Laura’s match as she was the last<br />

one standing and the match depended<br />

on her,” Peabody coach<br />

Lorraine Benoit said,<br />

“Players need to get used to<br />

being under the gun, and she<br />

came through for us today.<br />

“I think after winning the first<br />

set, she got a little leery in the<br />

second set and started playing<br />

too cautiously, just poking at the<br />

ball instead of stroking it,” Benoit<br />

said.<br />

“She wasn’t trusting her basic<br />

skills, but after talking about it<br />

between sets, she reverted back to<br />

the way she played in the first set.<br />

That’s her second win of the<br />

season and she played very well.<br />

She moved well and you can see<br />

she just wants to win so badly,<br />

and she has really earned that<br />

third singles spot.”<br />

Tanners’ pitchers are proving to be stingy<br />

By Anne Marie Tobin<br />

PEABODY — Let’s just say this<br />

year’s Peabody baseball team is on<br />

to something special. In particular,<br />

the pitching has been outstanding to<br />

date, allowing just four runs in five<br />

games, only two of them earned.<br />

Last week, the Tanners picked up<br />

four more wins to run their record to<br />

5-0.<br />

Malden was the latest victim,<br />

falling 9-0 on Monday at Bezemes<br />

Field. Patrick Maguire (5 innings)<br />

and Will Diezemann (2 innings)<br />

combined for two-hit shutout, while<br />

third baseman Chris Gillen provided<br />

the offensive fireworks. Gillen was<br />

3-for-4 with five RBI, while first<br />

baseman Jake Doherty also had a<br />

big day with two hits, two RBI, two<br />

stolen bases and scored two runs.<br />

Juniors Alex D’Angelo and<br />

Joe Gilmartin made their varsity<br />

pitching debuts this week, D’Angelo<br />

on Saturday against Revere and<br />

Gilmartin Friday against Saugus.<br />

All they did was deliver two complete<br />

games with Gilmartin allowing<br />

just one hit and, drum roll please,<br />

D’Angelo tossing a perfect game<br />

(see story, page 9).<br />

On April 12, it was Maguire and<br />

Zeuli who combined for a 6-1 win<br />

over Danvers at Twi Field. The win<br />

was the 200th Peabody career win<br />

for head coach Mark Bettencourt.<br />

Bettencourt, in his 12th year with<br />

Peabody, has 10 NEC/GBL conference<br />

titles to his credit during<br />

his tenure. The victory brings his<br />

coaching total to 297, which included<br />

his time as a coach at UMass<br />

Boston from 1998-2004.<br />

“We are pounding the strike zone<br />

and playing great defense, they come<br />

hand in hand,” Bettencourt said.<br />

“We’re pitching and playing well<br />

right now, let’s see if it continues.”<br />

Peabody 7, Saugus 2<br />

Against Saugus, Gilmartin struck<br />

out nine Saugus batters en route to a<br />

7-2 win for Peabody over the visiting<br />

Sachems at Bezemes Diamond.<br />

Bettencourt said the most impressive<br />

part of Gilmartin’s winning effort<br />

was his ability to stay ahead of<br />

batters in the count.<br />

“We preached before the game<br />

about trying to get an early lead to let<br />

him (Gilmartin) breathe a little bit,”<br />

Bettencourt said. “We wanted to<br />

let him enjoy the moment. The big<br />

thing today was he was ahead of 22<br />

out of 27 hitters. First pitch strikes,<br />

that puts batters in a position where<br />

they have to guess on the second<br />

pitch.”<br />

The lone blemish of Gilmartin’s<br />

performance was a 2-RBI triple<br />

that he allowed to Saugus’ Pat<br />

MacDonald, which brought home<br />

Nick Dascoli and Steve Ruggiero.<br />

Dascoli reached base on an infield<br />

throwing error and Ruggiero followed<br />

with a walk. By then the<br />

Tanners were already leading comfortably,<br />

7-2, but Bettencourt still<br />

made a visit to the mound to check<br />

on his starting pitcher.<br />

How did Gilmartin respond? The<br />

sophomore struck out the final three<br />

batters of the game, all looking, to<br />

put an exclamation point on his first<br />

varsity victory.<br />

“That makes you feel pretty good<br />

as a coach when you make a trip to<br />

the mound and you get results like<br />

that,” Bettencourt joked.<br />

Bettencourt added, “He<br />

(Gilmartin) wasn’t walking people.<br />

he threw strikes and our defense<br />

made some pretty nice plays behind<br />

him.”<br />

The Tanners took an early 2-0<br />

lead in the bottom of the first.<br />

Anthony Iannuzzi’s RBI double<br />

scored the first run of the game to<br />

make it 1-0 Peabody. Iannuzzi then<br />

came around to score, three batters<br />

later, on a balk committed by<br />

Saugus starter Todd Tringale.<br />

Peabody added three more in the<br />

bottom of the third.<br />

Nick Palma led off the frame<br />

with a double to right-center. Chris<br />

Gillen followed suit with a double<br />

of his own, scoring Palma to put<br />

Peabody ahead, 3-0. Jake Zeuli<br />

kept the rally alive with a single. As<br />

Zeuli attempted to steal second base,<br />

a throwing error brought Gillen<br />

home for a 4-0 edge. After another<br />

bad Saugus throw on an infield<br />

grounder, the Sachems found themselves<br />

down 5-0.<br />

Peabody added a pair of runs in the<br />

bottom of the sixth when Gilmartin<br />

doubled to score Jake Doherty and<br />

Eric DeMayo, giving the Tanners a<br />

7-0 lead before Saugus scored twice<br />

in the seventh.<br />

The Tanners have shown a business-like<br />

mentality as they aim to<br />

reach the state tournament. That approach<br />

has impressed Bettencourt.<br />

“That’s the attitude we’re trying<br />

to take,” Bettencourt said. “We want<br />

to win our league and our Memorial<br />

Day tournament, but we’re also<br />

looking to move past that. Those are<br />

goals we’ve always had but we’re<br />

trying to make them part of what<br />

we expect, not what we’re shooting<br />

for. Our biggest focus is on playing<br />

in June.”<br />

Peabody 6, Danvers 1<br />

The April 12 game between<br />

Peabody and Danvers came down<br />

PHOTO | SPENSER HASAK<br />

Will Diezemann closed for the Tanners in their victory over Malden<br />

Monday.<br />

to one thing; timely hitting. The<br />

Tanners got it, but the Falcons, who<br />

stranded 12 runners on the basepaths,<br />

did not.<br />

Toss in a sloppy first inning (in<br />

pouring rain) in which Danvers<br />

pitching issued four straight walks,<br />

and it all added up to a 6-1 Peabody<br />

win, who improved to 2-0.<br />

“It was a good win for us, we got<br />

great pitching again from (Jake)<br />

Zeuli and Maguire and clutch hitting<br />

from Jake Doherty and Zeuli,” said<br />

Peabody coach Mark Bettencourt.<br />

“We took advantage of the chances<br />

we had for the most part and we<br />

made some big plays when we<br />

needed them. They beat us last year,<br />

so it was great to get this win early<br />

in the season knowing we don’t play<br />

them again.”<br />

The game started innocently<br />

enough for Danvers starting pitcher<br />

Zach Dillon, who got Peabody<br />

leadoff batter Jake Gustin on a routine<br />

ground ball back to the mound.<br />

After that, Dillon struggled to<br />

find the plate. He walked left fielder<br />

Anthony Iannuzzi, right fielder<br />

Palma and third baseman Gillen to<br />

load the bases for Peabody starter,<br />

Zeuli. Zeuli also walked, bringing<br />

home Iannuzzi with the first run of<br />

the game.<br />

Doherty followed with a single,<br />

bringing home Palma and Gillen to<br />

make it a 3-0 game.<br />

Danvers certainly had its chances<br />

to get back in the game over the<br />

first three innings, but some solid<br />

defense bailed out Zeuli when<br />

he needed it most The Falcons<br />

had runners at first and third with<br />

two outs in the first, but Zeuli got<br />

catcher Nick Raimo on a grounder<br />

to Gillen at third to end the inning.<br />

In the second, they again had runners<br />

at first and third but got out of<br />

the jam with a Zeuli to Gustin to<br />

Doherty double play. In the third,<br />

Dillon singled, got to second on a<br />

wild pitch, but was thrown out at<br />

third by centerfielder Jake Irvine as<br />

he attempted to advance on a single<br />

by center fielder Jordan DeDonato.<br />

Both teams were in a charitable<br />

mood in the fifth inning. Peabody<br />

scratched out a run in the top of the<br />

inning without benefit of a hit on a<br />

botched pickoff play and throwing<br />

error allowing Zeuli, who walked<br />

to leadoff the inning, to score and<br />

bump the Tanners’ lead to 4-0.<br />

In the bottom of the inning, two<br />

walks sandwiched around an infield<br />

error loaded, and the Falcons were<br />

in business with only one out.<br />

Maguire came on to relieve Zeuli,<br />

and got DeDonato on a fly ball to<br />

Zeuli in center field. He walked in<br />

a run, then got left fielder Max Paul<br />

on a grounder back to the mound to<br />

get out of the inning.<br />

“We had our chances but we just<br />

could not get the hits we needed<br />

when we had runners in scoring<br />

position,” Danvers coach Fred Day<br />

said. “We get the walk in the fifth,<br />

then they make an error and we get<br />

another walk, but all game long it<br />

seemed when we did have chances,<br />

the best we could do was get a weak<br />

ground ball. I know it’s been tough<br />

not being outside much, but it’s the<br />

same for everybody.”<br />

Clutch hitting in the top of sixth<br />

hitting provided some breathing<br />

room for the Tanners. Iannuzzi<br />

blasted a double to center field and<br />

reached third on a fielder’s choice by<br />

Gillen. With two outs, Zeuli drove<br />

a double to right-center, scoring<br />

Iannuzzi from third and Gillen all<br />

the way from first.<br />

“We are so happy to have Jake<br />

Zeuli swinging the bat the way he is,<br />

as we did not expect that from him<br />

at all,” Bettencourt said. “Tonight,<br />

it came down to a couple of big hits,<br />

the one from Jake at the end of the<br />

game, and Doherty’s in the first, and<br />

the pitching was solid from Jake and<br />

Pat just as it was in our win against<br />

St. John’s Prep. It helped to get<br />

those three runs in the first.”<br />

Bettencourt said that this year,<br />

the expectations are higher for the<br />

Tanners.<br />

“Last year was pretty much an<br />

abomination, and these seniors who<br />

were a part of that do not want to<br />

end that way again.<br />

“The other day when we beat the<br />

Prep, we did not act like we won the<br />

World Series, we acted like we expected<br />

to win the game, and that’s<br />

the big difference we are hoping for<br />

this year.”<br />

Zeuli scattered seven hits in 4.1<br />

innings and was tagged for one unearned<br />

run, while Maguire gave up<br />

just two hits and a walk in 2.2 innings<br />

of relief.

Girls lacrosse team splits two games<br />

By Anne Marie Tobin<br />

PEABODY — The Peabody girls lacrosse<br />

team split two games last week<br />

to improve to 3-1. Saturday, the Tanners<br />

came through with a solid 10-5 win against<br />

Merrimack Valley Conference powerhouse<br />

Dracut, which trailed from start to<br />

finish.<br />

Earlier in the week, the Tanners fell<br />

from the ranks of the undefeated with a<br />

15-12 loss at Beverly on April 11.<br />

Against Dracut, Peabody jumped out to a<br />

6-2 lead at halftime. The Tanners bumped<br />

the lead to six at 8-2 with two quick goals<br />

in the first five minutes of the second half.<br />

After Dracut cut the lead to five at the<br />

18:44 mark, senior captains Lauren Wolff<br />

and Chloe Gizzi restored order with a pair<br />

of goals. Wolff, in a great individual effort,<br />

scored an unassisted goal with 9:23 to<br />

play. Four minutes later, the duo scored<br />

what have been one of the prettiest (and<br />

most unselfish) goals of the game. Wolff<br />

was fouled and awarded a free position<br />

shot from about 20 feet out. She dished to<br />

a wide open Gizzi on the left, who fired a<br />

laser, just under the crossbar on the right to<br />

bump Peabody’s lead to 10-3.<br />

“This was a very competitive game<br />

against a team from a very tough conference,”<br />

Peabody coach Dennis Desroches<br />

said. “They were coming off games<br />

against two powerhouse teams in Catholic<br />

Central and North Andover, so we knew<br />

they were tested and ready.<br />

“They played a full 50 min and never<br />

quit. We dropped the ball a lot but fortunately<br />

we got out to that early lead.”<br />

Desroches said Peabody needs to be<br />

more efficient with the ball and finish their<br />

opportunities.<br />

“We missed a bunch of shots we should<br />

have had, but give Dracut credit they were<br />

able to stick around and came up with<br />

some loose balls.”<br />

This year’s Tanners are getting great<br />

contributions from a few freshmen, who<br />

Desroches said have adapted to the offensive<br />

scheme, as well as a strong senior<br />

group of seasoned veterans.<br />

“We have a relatively new offense, but<br />

the three freshmen (Colleen Crotty, Olivia<br />

Kiricoples and Abigail Ryder) are getting<br />

better and better every practice and game<br />

and they are learning.”<br />

Crotty is averaging five points per game<br />

and Kiricoples is averaging slightly more<br />

than four.<br />

“Olivia had two goals today, so that was<br />

very good,” said Desroches. “And Abigail<br />

Ryder worked her way into a starting role<br />

at practice and by her game performances.<br />

She’s only a freshman, but has shown she<br />

belongs out there.”<br />

A big factor in the Dracut win was strong<br />

play by goalie and senior captain Gianna<br />

Denisco.<br />

“She had 11 saves today, but was big in<br />

the second half especially, when Dracut<br />

started to really put more pressure on us<br />

with their offense.<br />

“We are getting contributions from our<br />

younger kids and have good senior leadership,<br />

and that’s a great mix to have on any<br />

team,” Desroches said. “Today we were<br />

missing a couple of starters, so any time<br />

you can get a win when you are missing<br />

starters, is a good thing.<br />

Desroches also said that Alyssa<br />

Shashaty, Ali Demeo, Kelly Crotty and<br />

Carla Patania played well defensively.<br />

Wolff finished with a game-high five<br />

goals, while Gizzi scored three goals and<br />

also had one assist. Senior captain Kirsten<br />

Bradley scored one goal, while Patania and<br />

Ryder notched one assist each.<br />

The Beverly game was a back-and-forth<br />

affair, until the Panthers scored the final<br />

three goals of the game to hold off the<br />

Tanners. The game had numerous lead<br />

changes and was tied at 10-10 at halftime<br />

after Beverly scored two empty net free<br />

position shots when Denisco was called for<br />

a foul and sent to the sidelines.<br />

Wolff notched four goals for Peabody<br />

(2-1), including one on a free position<br />

shot that knotted the score at 12-12 late.<br />

Bradley and Colleen Crotty each scored<br />

two, Kiricoples logged a hat trick and an<br />

assist, Kelly Crotty scored once Patania<br />

logged an assist for Peabody.<br />

Peabody’s next game is Tuesday at home<br />

against Northeastern Conference opponent<br />

Peabody boys lacrosse squad is still struggling<br />

By Harold Rivera<br />

and Anne Marie Tobin<br />

PEABODY — It’s been a<br />

tough couple of weeks for the<br />

Peabody boys lacrosse, which is<br />

still in search of its first win of<br />

the season. The Tanners came<br />

close at Danvers April 12, but let<br />

a four-goal lead slip away in the<br />

second half, losing the game 9-8.<br />

“We were up 6-3 at halftime<br />

and then 7-3 early in the second,<br />

but blew it,” O’Donnell said.<br />

“We had the chance we were<br />

looking for at the end with 22 seconds<br />

left. Steven (Ell) was open<br />

and got the shot he wanted, but<br />

their goalie (Bruno Abbatessa)<br />

deflected it off his shoulder.”<br />

Two days later at home on<br />

Saturday, the Tanners took it on<br />

the chin again, this time at the<br />

hands of visiting Chelmsford,<br />

which scored early and often in a<br />

13-1 rout.<br />

Peabody played shorthanded<br />

much of the game, thanks to nine<br />

penalties. Colby Therrien scored<br />

the Tanners’ lone goal.<br />

“Our throwing and catching<br />

basic skills are getting better, but<br />

we still lack game experience.<br />

“Today, we had huge problems<br />

clearing the ball and we were a<br />

little better in the second half with<br />

better offensive chances, but it will<br />

come although frustration is setting<br />

in.” O’Donnell said freshman<br />

Nick Pattarelli played well.<br />

Tanners’ netminder Jake De-<br />

Stefano was outstanding, making<br />

19 saves. O’Donnell also singled<br />

out John Najjar for a strong game<br />

on the defensive end.<br />

“Chelmsford is a quality team<br />

and a top tier team in Division<br />

1 with three players who are<br />

committed to Division 1 college<br />

teams,” O’Donnell said. “They’re<br />

5-0 and they beat Billerica earlier<br />

in the season for the first time in<br />

20 years, so they are very solid.”<br />

Against Danvers, the Tanners<br />

controlled the first half and led<br />

6-3 at halftime. The second half,<br />

however, was a different story.<br />

“We were up 6-3 at halftime<br />

and then 7-3 early in the second,<br />

but blew it,” O’Donnell said.<br />

“We had the chance we were<br />

looking for at the end with 22 seconds<br />

left. Steven (Ell) was open<br />

and got the shot he wanted, but<br />

their goalie (Bruno Abbatessa)<br />

deflected it off his shoulder.”<br />

Ell led all scorers with six goals<br />

and also had an assist, while Mason<br />

Zeuli had a goal and two assists.<br />

Ryan Vinagro also had a big day<br />

with four assists, while Connor<br />

McCarron had a goal and two assists.<br />

DeStefano made 19 saves.<br />

The Tanners also lost a tough<br />

one to Marblehead, 13-4, at Piper<br />

Field April 11.<br />

The Magicians controlled the<br />

flow of the game from the start,<br />

testing DeStefano with multiple<br />

shots. Marblehead’s efforts on offense<br />

were rewarded two minutes<br />

in when Drew Cioffi fired a shot<br />

into the net. Two minutes later,<br />

Luke Anderson added a goal to<br />

pad the lead at 2-0.<br />

With 4:50 left in the opening<br />

quarter, Sam Cioffi netted a goal<br />

to make it a 3-0 Marblehead advantage.<br />

It stayed at 3-0 until the<br />

final minute of the quarter, when<br />

Anderson scored again for a 4-0<br />

lead at the end of one.<br />

“We wanted to set the tone,<br />

set the pace,” Marblehead coach<br />

John Wilkens said. “I thought the<br />

guys did a good job tonight. We<br />

were really patient on offense, we<br />

did a really good job playing with<br />

our feet on defense.”<br />

The Magicians kept their feet<br />

on the gas in the second quarter.<br />

With 8:11 remaining in the<br />

quarter, Sam Cioffi scored his<br />

second goal of the night and the<br />

Tanners were facing a seven-goal<br />

deficit.<br />

“Every time we made a mistake,<br />

Marblehead capitalized,”<br />

O’Donnell said. “They capitalized<br />

on every mistake we made.<br />

We talk about that in practice and<br />

before games, limiting our mistakes<br />

and unforced errors. That<br />

can change the game.”<br />

Colby Therrien finally got the<br />

Tanners on the board with 4:40<br />

left in the period, slimming the<br />

deficit to 7-1. The Magicians fired<br />

back with two goals netted by<br />

Drew Cioffi, giving Marblehead<br />

a comfortable 9-1 edge at the half.<br />

“We’ve been working with<br />

the guys to not panic and show a<br />

little poise,” Wilkens said. “That<br />

showed tonight so that’s a good<br />

step forward.”<br />

Marblehead’s Harry Craig<br />

scored twice in the opening minutes<br />

of the third quarter to open<br />

up a double-digit lead at 11-1.<br />

Connor McCarron found the back<br />

of the net for the Tanners’ second<br />

goal of the night, but Marblehead<br />

added one more to stay ahead,<br />

12-2, at the end of three.<br />

Peabody added a pair of late<br />

scores in the fourth quarter from<br />

Ell and Patterelli but, by then, the<br />

game was out of reach.<br />

The Tanners received a strong<br />

performance from DeStefano,<br />

who finished with 15 saves.<br />

“He (DeStefano) had a great<br />

game,” Wilkens said. “He’s a<br />

terrific goalie and he made some<br />

outstanding saves.”<br />

“He’s going to have to be that<br />

way for us,” O’Donnell said of<br />

his netminder. “In the two games<br />

we’ve played this year, the ball<br />

has been in the defensive end for<br />

the majority of the time. You<br />

can’t get offense going if you<br />

can’t get the ball out of your own<br />

end, and we need to be able to<br />

clear the ball better than we have<br />

done this year. We need to control<br />

the ball more on offense and<br />

cut down on the unforced errors.”<br />

Peabody’s next game is this<br />

morning (Thursday) at Natick at<br />

11 a.m. After that, the Tanners<br />

will venture out of state for their<br />

annual college road trip game.<br />

This year’s game will be played<br />

Fenwick girls tennis tests<br />

itself against Lynnfield<br />

By Anne Marie Tobin<br />

LYNNFIELD — The Lynnfield girls<br />

tennis team improved to 2-0 Thursday with<br />

a 5-0 sweep over visiting Bishop Fenwick.<br />

Fenwick took plenty of positives from<br />

the match.<br />

“In past years we haven’t played teams<br />

like this very often, so having a challenge<br />

like this is a good experience,” said Fenwick<br />

coach Paula Hannon. “The Catholic<br />

Conference just isn’t nearly as strong as the<br />

Cape Ann League, so exposing the girls to<br />

that higher level will help us when it comes<br />

time for the tournament.”<br />

Lynnfield rolled out an all-senior lineup.<br />

Lynnfield senior captains Camie Foley<br />

and Katie Nevils staked the Pioneers to a<br />

quick 2-0 lead. Foley, who had bumped<br />

off Nevils earlier in the week in a challenge<br />

match, defeated junior Taylor Botthof at<br />

second singles, 6-0, 6-3, while Nevils defeated<br />

freshman Brenna Waldinger in the<br />

third singles match, 6-0, 6-2.<br />

Strout and Mucci secured the match with<br />

a 6-3, 6-3 win over Fenwick sophomores<br />

Tiana Iuliano and Niamh Walsh at second<br />

doubles.<br />

Pioneer senior captain Katie Nugent<br />

and senior Allison Carey made it 4-0 with<br />

a 7-5, 6-1 win over Fenwick senior captain<br />

Patricia Jabonillo and junior Abby<br />

Graumann.<br />

The match was tied at 5-5 in the first set.<br />

Nugent and Carey rallied to win the next<br />

two games and their momentum carried<br />

over into the second set.<br />

“It was a hard match, but a good match<br />

until they won those last two games in the<br />

first set,” Jabonillo.”<br />

The last match was first singles, with senior<br />

captain Sarah Mezini against Fenwick<br />

junior captain Kerry Kircher. Both had<br />

played first singles since arriving at their<br />

respective schools as freshmen.<br />

Kircher may have lost the match, 6-0,<br />

6-1, but she took a lead over the hard-hitting<br />

lefthander.<br />

“I was very surprised to lead the second<br />

set 1-0,” Kircher said. “I came into the<br />

match just trying to play the best tennis I<br />

can and maybe go for points and I was little<br />

nervous in the beginning until I realized the<br />

pressure wasn’t on me.<br />

“Sarah is an amazing player and I<br />

knew her style from playing with her at<br />

Northeast,” Kircher said. “It was a good experience<br />

for me to play a player of Sarah’s<br />

caliber. What got me in the beginning<br />

was her serve. Her second serve is just as<br />

good as her first serve, plus the ball spins<br />

a lot with her being a lefty, and I ended up<br />

having a couple of whiffs out there, but<br />

even so, it’s a good loss that will help me<br />

Vieira puts the hammer down<br />

Patricia Jabonillo, left, and Kerry<br />

Kircher are Fenwick’s girls tennis captains.<br />

be a stronger player in future matches.”<br />

Mezini said Kircher had her number in a<br />

couple of games.<br />

“She really had me running around a<br />

little out there at the start of the second set,”<br />

said Mezini.<br />

For Hannon, playing Lynnfield is just<br />

one part of Fenwick’s plan to reach the<br />

next level.<br />

Hannon said that Kircher’s match wasn’t<br />

the only good loss Thursday.<br />

“Our goal is to win a tournament match<br />

this year and the only way to do that is to<br />

player as tough a non-league schedule as<br />

we can,” said Hannon. “Our non-league<br />

matches will push us and make us better.<br />

That’s what you saw today from pretty<br />

much everybody. Kircher was playing<br />

fearlessly, knowing that she had nothing to<br />

lose and everything to gain.”<br />

Hannon said the team redefined its<br />

strategy this year to focus more on<br />

conditioning.<br />

Hannon feels the strength of the team is<br />

in doubles, especially the first doubles team<br />

of Jabonillo and Graumann, but Fenwick<br />

also has experienced players in singles<br />

along with some promising young players.<br />

“They are a veteran team who works<br />

very well together,” Hannon said.<br />

Hannon said the surprise of the season<br />

has been the play of Waldinger.<br />

“She is a serious player and plays in the<br />

offseason at Bass River,” said Hannon.<br />

“She is very young and is still learning, but<br />

she has potential.”<br />

Hannon hinted that her strategy of<br />

loading the schedule with tough matches<br />

has its risks.<br />

“Hopefully our strategy works and we<br />

win enough matches to get to the tournament<br />

and get that win,” she said. “If we get<br />

one, then the goal becomes to get two, then<br />

go from there, one step at a time.”<br />
