The developers of the proposed 

Sagamore Spring senior 

housing development 

have submitted their paperwork 

to get three zoning articles 

on the April Town Meeting 

Warrant. 

If approved by voters, the 

zoning amendments will help 

pave the way for 154 units of 

senior housing at the Sagamore 

Spring Golf Club. The 

18-hole golf course will remain 

on the property. 

The rezoning includes 

changing the east side of the 

property from a residential 

to an elderly housing district, 

allowing a golf course as a 

permitted use in an elderly 

housing district, and increasing 

the maximum number of 

units allowed in an elderly 

housing district from 136 to 

154, according to Ted Regnante, 

the local attorney representing 

the Residences at 

Sagamore Spring project. 

The project is being proposed 

by developer Richard 

Bonvie, president of Mashpee-based 

Bonvie Homes. 

Bonvie has been behind several 

high-end over 55 communities 

across the state, 

including the New England 

Country Club project in Bellingham. 

The planned residences 

will be attached two-bedroom 

townhomes ranging 

from 2,400 to 3,000 square 

feet, built in clusters of duplexes, 

triplexes, and quads, 

with expected listing prices 

from $700,000 to $900,000, 

according to Regnante. 

The Sagamore Spring Golf 

Course has been owned by 

the Luff and Strobel/Thompson 

families since 1929. Richard 

Luff, speaking on behalf 

of the landowners during the 

initial presentation to selectmen, 

said the proposed 

free event and open to the 

public. 

Art-In-Bloom is the signature 

Spring event that 

combines multi-media art 

creations with fresh floral 

First time participants • Boxing gloves with sign-up 

active adult community was 

the most attractive option 

of several he and his family 

considered for the land. 

“Working with Ron and 

his team will ensure the best 

use of the land and allow the 

golf course to remain open to 

the public,” he said. 

Richard Tisei, owner of 

Northrup Associates, is 

working with Bonvie on the 

marketing of the community. 

Tisei said the community 

will provide much needed 

residences for adults 55 and 

over who want to remain in 

Lynnfield as they become 

empty nesters. 

Tisei, Bonvie, and Regnante 

have all noted that 

allowing senior housing will 

have less of an impact on 

the town than allowing single 

family residences, which 

would place a greater burden 

on the schools and other 

town services.

At the April 9 reception, 

attendees will hear brief presentations

Town considers opioid class action suit 

SUIT 

From Page 1 

Commonwealth of Massachusetts,” 

said Dolan. “Communities 

are coming together to 

file a class action suit against 

leading pharmaceutical companies 

that have provided 

opioid-based pharmaceuticals 

to residents of the commonwealth.” 

Last fall, Healey expanded 

an ongoing investigation 

in the marketing and sales 

of opioids to include multiple 

manufacturers of branded 

painkillers and three major 

drug distributors. 

As part of the 39-member 

bipartisan coalition of 

attorneys general, Healey 

was investigating whether 

drug manufacturers sought 

to increase profits by misrepresenting 

the dangers of 

prescription painkillers and 

ignoring the public health 

risks of spiking opioid sales. 

The companies being investigated 

by the attorney 

general include manufacturers 

Purdue Pharma, Endo, 

Janssen Teva, and Allergan 

and distributors Amerisource 

Bergen, Cardinal Health, 

and McKesson. 

“In my previous life (as 

mayor of Melrose) we had 

long discussions about joining 

this litigation,” said Dolan. 

“I will be meeting with town 

solicitor Tom Mullen as well 

as the town administrator of 

Wakefield, Steve Mayo, to discuss 

whether this will be in 

the interest of the citizens of 

Lynnfield and I will be able to 

provide the board with a more 

formal recommendation at its 

next meeting.” 

Last year, town officials 

took steps to address opioid 

and other addition issues 

with the formation of the 

Healthy Lynnfield coalition. 

The group consists of local 

educators, town officials, 

health professionals, and 

clergy working to address 

substance abuse issues. 

Last fall, the White House 

declared the opioid epidemic 

as a public health emergency. 

At the time, Healey 

noted that the declaration 

was made 3-½ years after an 

emergency was declared in 

Massachusetts and that the 

national emergency was woefully 

inadequate to address 

the challenges faced during 

Christina Troisi makes 

Dean’s List at Cornell University 

the epidemic. 

But on Tuesday, the U.S. 

Justice Department stated 

that it had filed a statement 

of interest in a case involving 

hundreds of lawsuits against 

opioid distributors and manufacturers, 

according to the 

Washington Post.

Search is on for new 

Essex Tech superintendent 

By Adam Swift 

Editor 

The search is on for a new 

superintendent for the Essex 

North Shore Agricultural 

and Technical school district. 

William Lupini, the current 

superintendent, is leaving 

in August to lead the 

Hampton, NH school district. 

Essex Technical High 

School serves students from 

17 North Shore districts, including 

Peabody, Lynnfield, 

Swampscott, Nahant, and 

Marblehead. 

“We’ve decided to go with 

the Massachusetts Association 

of School Committees 

(MASC) for assistance with 

the selection process,” said 

Beverley Ann Griffin Dunne, 

Peabody’s representative on 

the Essex Tech school committee. 

“We’re having the 

MASC conduct a survey asking 

for comments from people 

in all 17 member communities.” 

The survey is available on 

the municipal websites of the 

district’s member communities. 

It will close on March 

14, and the Essex Tech school 

Honoring those who 

have made an impact 

committee will tabulate results 

at its March 15 meeting. 

Topics covered in the survey 

include qualities desired 

in a new superintendent and 

the top issues the new superintendent 

will face. 

The goal is to have a new 

superintendent hired in time 

to work with Lupini before 

Lupini heads to New Hampshire, 

said Gary Hathaway, 

Lynnfield’s representative to 

the district school committee. 

“It would definitely be a 

plus for us to get somebody 

with vocational education 

experience, but it would not 

be a disqualifier if they didn’t 

have that experience,” said 

Hathaway. 

For Dunne, the superintendent 

search is a familiar 

process. As a member of the 

Peabody school committee, 

she took part in a multi-year 

search process to replace interim 

superintendent Herb 

Levine. 

“It’s very interesting,” she 

said. “I can see a distinct difference 

in the searches. The 

world of vocational education 

is much smaller with a 

They include a philanthropic 

power couple, an innovator 

who helped sow the 

seeds for artists’ murals to 

sprout in downtown Lynn, 

and an inspirational teen. 

On March 7, from 6-9 p.m. 

at the Lynn Museum, 590 

Washington St., Essex Media 

Group (EMG) introduces and 

honors its 10 Persons of the 

Year. The inaugural event salutes 

inspirational people who 

have improved the quality of 

life within our communities. 

The Persons of the Year 

include Marblehead residents 

and YMCA benefactors 

Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo; 

Swampscott resident and 

Old Neighborhood Foods owner 

Tom Demakes; Beyond Walls 

CEO and founder Al Wilson; 

and Zack Cummings of Saugus, 

who galvanized a community 

fight against cancer even 

while undergoing treatment. 

Nahant resident and former 

Lynn Mayor Tom Costin 

is a Person of the Year for his 

decades of generosity. Revere 

resident Monse Torres-Hood is 

honored for her work empowering 

the Latino community. 

Malden’s Anne D’Urso-Rose 

worked with Malden Reads to 

harness literature’s ability to 

forge community unity. 

In a similar vein, Lynnfield 

for Love focused the 

town’s energies on kindness 

and racial amity; and John 

Pet of the week 

smaller pool of qualified candidates.” 

Dunne and Hathaway 

both said Lupini did a good 

job stabilizing and leading 

the school district. 

“He brought stability to 

Essex Tech,” said Dunne. 

“The other committee members 

I’ve spoken to have all 

mentioned that Lupini is 

leaving the school in a good 

place and made a lot of positive 

changes.” 

In 2004, the state legislature 

approved the merger of 

the North Shore Vocational 

Technical School, Essex Agricultural 

Institute, and the 

Peabody High vocational programs. 

The Essex Technical 

High School opened in 2014. 

Prior to coming to the 

Essex Technical district in 

2015, Lupini served as superintendent 

in Brookline for 

11 years, in Beverly for seven 

years, and in Kutztown, 

Penn. for two years. 

“Dr. Lupini took over at a 

very critical time when the 

three schools merged,” said 

Hathaway. “It was a pretty 

big job, and he did it very 

well.” 

Veneziano of Medford and 

Tom Gould of Peabody are 

honored for translating their 

entrepreneurial skills into 

community-building efforts. 

EMG invites everyone to 

take part in the Person of the 

Year celebration on March 7 

and to help launch an annual 

tradition dedicated to honoring 

people who go above and 

beyond to make their community 

a better place to live in. 

Tickets may be purchased 

by going to itemlive.com or calling

Four-year-old Miss Triss was found high up in a tree 

on a Friday. When she was still there on that following 

Sunday she was rescued using a cherry picker. 

She then came here to be checked out by a vet. We 

scanned for a microchip and did not find one. She 

was held for a few days while we hoped that her family 

would come for her while the lady that initially 

noticed her in the tree hung up posters in the area. 

Miss Triss is a 4-year-old sweet girl. She enjoys being 

petted and receiving attention and is looking for 

a home. If you are interested in meeting to adopt 

Miss Triss, she can be visited at the Northeast Animal 

Shelter located in Salem, MA. Visiting hours are

The media are filled with reports of widespread opioid abuse that has reached 

epidemic proportions. According to a recent study, about 38% of U.S. adults took 

legitimately prescribed opioids in 2015, which is four times the rate of prescribing in 

1999. Perhaps not surprisingly, seniors comprise a sizable number of these prescriptions. 

According to the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services, nearly one-third of 

seniors enrolled in Medicare part D used prescription opioids in 2015. The reason is that 

acetaminophen is relatively ineffective for treating inflammatory conditions such as 

arthritis, while non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen raise the risk for 

gastrointestinal bleeding in elderly patients. So, American Geriatric Society guidelines 

recommend opioids for seniors with life-impairing moderate-to-severe chronic pain. 

It is no secret that as you age, you face greater risk of illness and injury. Seniors are 

more susceptible to injuries that require pain management, such as broken bones and 

chronic pain. Unfortunately, there are not many good options for treating pain in seniors. 

Seemingly benign drugs like ibuprofen or Advil can lead to serious bleeding, while being 

far less effective at treating pain than opioid or synthetic opioid painkillers. For more 

information, please call VILLAGE PHARMACY at 781-334-3133. We are located in the 

Colonial Shopping Center. Open” Mon.-Fri., 9-8; Sat. 9-5; and Sun. and holidays, 

9-1:30. 

HINT: If opioids are the best option for relieving pain, seniors are advised to consult 

with their physicians about taking the lowest possible dose and minimizing any risks 

from taking the drugs.

Motivated Mitchell captures a silver in 1,000 

By Anne Marie Tobin 

BOSTON — Sometimes a 

little bulletin board material can 

go a long way in the motivation 

department. 

Just ask Lynnfield High senior 

Kate Mitchell, a Boston College 

track and cross country commit. 

Early Saturday morning, 

Mitchell was on the team bus on 

her way to compete in the girls 

1,000 meter run at the MIAA 

All-States Championship meet 

at the Reggie Lewis Center in 

Roxbury when she decided to 

listen in to baystaterunning. 

com’s meet preview. 

“I couldn’t believe it when the 

guy doing the preview basically 

wrote me off,” she said. “He said 

I’d stand a much better chance if 

I ran the 600, but basically said I 

was an also-ran in the 1,000 and 

was unlikely to place. My mom 

had heard it, too, and both of us 

were a little surprised, to say the 

least, and it kind of stuck with 

me. It definitely gave me added 

motivation to run a good race 

and prove I could compete.” 

Well, Mitchell did that and 

more. She stuck to her game 

plan, in spite of the blistering 

pace set by winner and Yale 

University bound Samantha 

Friborg (2:49.26) of Lincoln- 

Sudbury, who took control early 

and coasted to a near-seven 

second win over Mitchell, who 

finished second in 2:56.00. 

With one lap to go, Mitchell 

stood in fourth place, but turned 

on the jets to pass every runner in

Lauren Mitchell leads the way in the in the opening leg of the 4x400 

relay in the Massachusetts all-states. 

front of her except Friborg to pick 

up the silver medal. 

“Friborg always goes out fast, I 

mean I overheard her talking before 

the race about her split goals 

and they were just ridiculous,” 

said Mitchell. “She wanted to 

do 2:17 at the 800 mark and was 

talking about 2:40 final, and I 

knew I just had to stick to my 

game plan, but I was surprised 

because I thought that a lot of 

girls would go out fast with her, 

but nobody did, and because I 

wasn’t expecting everyone else to 

be so slow, I kind of got stuck in 

lanes two and three, which isn’t 

ideal.” 

Mitchell said she realized this 

was probably the last lap of her 

high school on the Reggie Lewis 

track, which, at times, had been 

less than kind to her. 

As an upstart freshman three 

years ago, Mitchell went into the 

meet on the heels of a 3:03 1,000 

at the Division 5 meet, only to 

meet disaster at All-States when 

she got tripped up rounding a 

corner and went down. She eventually 

finished a disappointing 

24th (3:17.56). 

Fast forward to this season 

in the final meet of the day, the 

4x400 relay. 

Freshman sister Lauren 

Mitchell ran the opening leg and 

kicked her way on the straightaway 

into second place, but had 

to make her way across the track 

to lane four (losing a few places) 

for a clean handoff to sister 

Ashley. Juliana Passatempo also 

ran a strong leg before handing 

the baton to Kate Mitchell for the 

anchor leg. 

In fifth place, it was nearly deja 

vu for Mitchell. 

“I couldn’t believe that I got 

clipped again,” she said. “It 

Kate Mitchell listened to a video preview by a local running website 

that didn’t seem to regard her very highly for the all-state 1,000. 

Mitchell responded by finishing second. 

wasn’t the same corner, but the 

opposite one, but I didn’t let it get 

to me. It was just blood and sweat 

but no tears, so I was okay.” 

Mitchell shrugged off the injury 

and dialed it up a notch on 

the final lap. 

“I knew had to take risks to 

get out ahead of the other two 

girls into second place and just 

said that if someone caught me I 

would be fine with that as I knew 

I had left it all on that track one 

final time.” 

Lynnfield finished the race a 

shade off its personal best time 

and finished 12th in 4:12.06. 

The Pioneers finished 21st of 

54 teams with eight points. 

Mitchell has a couple of weeks 

off before she and the 4x400 relay 

team head to New York City for 

the 2018 New Balance Indoor 

Nationals March 9-11 at the 

Armory Track and Field Cente. 

Wrestlers have banquet and name new captains 

The Lynnfield/North Reading 

wrestling team wrapped up the 

2017-2018 season Monday night 

with its annual awards banquet at 

the high school. 

The highlight of the banquet, 

as always, was the announcement 

of the captains for next year’s 

team. They are junior Dylan 

Reardon and sophomores Timmy 

Leggett, Stuart Glover and Sean 

McCullough. 

Now in its 14th year as a co-op 

program, the Black and Gold finished 

the dual meet season 9-18- 

1. The team was very young this 

year and regularly filled a lineup 

that included 10 underclassmen 

and/or first or second year varsity 

wrestlers, yet the team showed 

great improvement through the 

season and had several strong finishes 

at major tournaments. 

The team placed four wrestlers 

in the Wakefield Lisitano 

Tournament and Pentucket 

Tournament, six wrestlers at 

the the Cape Ann League/ 

Northeastern Conference 

Championship Tournament and 

12 wrestlers at the Cohasset 

Tournament. 

In the postseason, the Black and 

Gold finished 13th at the Division 

2 North Sectional Tournament 

at Danvers High. Sophomore 

Timothy Leggett (3-2) placed 

third in the 132-pound division, 

while senior captain Anthony 

Wilkinson (2-2) placed fourth 

at 170 pounds. Senior captain 

Andrew DiPietro (2-2) and sophomore 

Sean McCullough (2-2) 

recorded fifth place finishes, with 

DiPietro wrestling at 152 pounds 

and McCullough, who has placed 

in all five tournaments this 

season, wrestling at 182 pounds. 

By virtue of their top-four finishes, 

Wilkinson and Leggett advanced 

to the Division II meet at 

Milton, where each finished 1-2 

and were short of placing. 

Varsity letters were awarded 

to freshmen Jack Bird, Nik 

Marotta, Christian Real-Costa 

and Jack Ross; sophomores 

Stuart Glover, Chris Metrano, 

Leggett (2nd Cohasset, 3rd CAL/ 

NEC, 3rd Sectional), Daniel 

Ryan, Ciovanni Colucciello, 

Eric Benecke, McCullough (2nd 

Wakefield, 2nd Pentucket, 2nd 

Cohasset, 2nd Cal/NEC, 5th 

Sectional), Brandon Ouellette, 

Gerry Callagy, Greg Camier 

(6th Cohasset), Aidan Carucci 

and Steven Kane; junior Dylan 

Reardon; and seniors Josh Bedell 

(6th Wakefield, 4th Pentucket, 

3rd Cohasse1hjuytain Kevin 

Farrelly (4th Pentucket, 2nd 

Cohasset, 4th CAL/NEC). 

McCullough and Wilkinson 

also earned Cape Ann League All 

League recognition. 

Bedell, Benecke, Camier, 

Farrelly, Marotta, and Wilkinson 

received first-year Iron Man 

Awards, while McCullough, 

Colucciello and Ryan were second-year 

Iron Man Award winners 

and DiPietro earned his 

fourth Iron Man award.

Hockey coach Roach steps on familiar ice 


PEABODY — The Peabody/ 

Lynnfield girls hockey team, fresh 

from having completed the best 

season in its history, certainly got 

a dose of postseason reality when 

it found out that it would play St. 

Mary’s last night in the opening 

round of the MIAA Division 1 state 

tournament. 

After all, the Spartans have won 

five state titles, four in Division 

1. They are the fifth seed with a 

15-3-2 record. And they are, like 

Peabody (11-7-2) working on their 

best season since their most recent 

state title in 2013. 

The good news for the Tanners 

is that if anyone knows a thing or 

two about St. Mary’s girls hockey, 

and has the bio to back it up, it’s 

Peabody coach Michelle Roach, a 

former St. Mary’s assistant coach 

and one of the trailblazing female 

hockey pioneers who were there 

when the Spartans’ program began 

in 2001-2002. 

A Lynn native and resident, 

Roach cut her hockey teeth at 

Connery at the age of 10 when she 

started playing in the Lynn Youth 

Hockey program. 

Roach, who had played on the 

boys junior varsity hockey team as 

a freshman and sophomore, made 

the leap to the girls team her junior 

year. 

“They didn’t have a girls’ team, 

so my only choice was to play with 

the boys, so that’s what I did,” said 

Roach. “My father, Bob, was instrumental 

in getting the program 

going. He went to all the meetings 

and ended up coaching as an 

assistant the first four or five years. 

LYNN — Former St. John’s 

Prep standout Justin Foley, 

a Lynnfield resident, will be 

pitching this summer for the the 

North Shore Navigators. Foley, 

a junior at Bates College, will 

toe the Fraser Field rubber for 

the first time with the Futures 

Collegiate Baseball League club 

this summer. 

“You can never have enough 

pitching on a summer roster, and 

we’re excited to welcome Justin 

and Deven to the ballclub,” 

General Manager Bill Terlecky 

said. “Justin is a local product 

who has past experience in our 

league.” 

Foley made 19 appearances 

over his first two seasons at Bates 

College, where he was a teammate 

of three-year Navigator, 

former FCBL All-Star reliever,

When the school finally voted to 

start a girls team, there were about 

12 or 13 of us who played on the 

team my junior year when it was 

club. There were only four or five 

of us who had ever skated before, 

let alone play hockey, and everyone 

else was brand new. I didn’t come 

off the ice much, needless to say. 

We just were a bunch of girls who 

wanted to play hockey. We had a 

few forwards and a couple D who 

had played before and a coach 

(Todd Langlis) who really believed 

in us.” 

The following year in the 

Spartans’ first season as a varsity 

program, Roach served as captain 

and led the team in scoring, earning 

Eastern Mass all-star honors, CCL 

all-league honors and all-scholastic 

honors. She led the Spartans to their 

first-ever state tournament, scoring 

three goals in the Spartans’ first 

round 9-6 loss to Watertown. 

Roach also served as captain of 

the Spartans’ cross country and outdoor 

track teams. 

Roach moved on to play three 

years on the women’s team at St. 

Michael’s College, becoming the 

first of many accomplished St. 

Mary’s alums to play collegiate 

hockey. She hung up her skates 

prior to her senior year when concussions 

and pneumonia cut her career 

short. 

Playing career, that is. 

In 2009-2011, she was back at her 

alma mater as an assistant coach. 

“It was an incredible run, and to 

be a part of those teams that had a 

100-game unbeaten streak was just 

the best,” she said. “I still remember 

when the streak was broken, it was 

and fellow St. John’s grad Rob 

DiFranco as a freshman. The 

Lynnfield native went 3-1 with 

a 5.00 ERA in eight outings, including 

two starts, for the Bobcats 

last year, striking out 20 batters 

while walking just seven over 27 

innings of work. As a freshman, 

Foley posted an 0-2 record in 11 

appearances with an ERA of 4.29 

in 21 innings of work, striking out 

19 and walking eight. 

Foley, who was ESPN Boston’s 

Mr. Baseball recipient as a Prep 

senior, is no stranger to the FCBL 

as he helped the Nashua Silver 

Knights to their first of two consecutive 

championships in 2016. 

Foley was the second St. John’s 

Prep player in three years to receive

Coach Michelle Roach talks things over with captain Sarah Buckley during a recent game. 

overtime against Hingham in the 

2011 quarterfinals. We had won our 

third straight state championship my 

first year, then won again in 2013. 

It was great working for Frank 

(Pagliuca) and I think I learned so 

much from him. 

“It was incredible to be on the 

ground floor of the program, then return 

to see the program’s growth as 

well as be a part of it. It far surpassed 

anything I had imagined when I put 

on the first jersey at 16 years old – 

we built something really cool that 

has made such a huge impact in 

Massachusetts girls’ hockey.” 

Fast forward to the summer of 

2015 when Roach was hired as the 

new coach of a fledgling Peabody/ 

Lynnfield girls hockey team. She 

inherited a team that won just four 

games the year before. That first 

year, the team set a program record 

with six wins, then last year, 

Foley finished his Prep career 

having never lost a varsity decision. 

He finished with a career 

record of 14-0. He had a breakout 

season as a senior, posting a record 

of 11-0 and ERA of 0.94. In 

72 innings, he struck out 62 and 

walked just 12 batters, helping 

the top-seeded Eagles reach 

the Super 8 final for the second 

straight year. He opened the tournament 

by throwing the first nohitter 

in Super 8 history, leading 

the Eagles to a 1-0 win over defending 

champion Newton North. 

He finished the tournament with a 

2-0 record and set a Super 8 tournament 

record for most strikeouts 

with 22. His efforts earned 

Foley Catholic Conference MVP 

honors and he was also named 

to the Boston Globe and Boston 

Herald All-Scholastic and 

Massachusetts All-State team. 

the team qualified for the Division 

1 tournament for the first time in 

program history with a regular 

season record of 9-8-3 before losing 

in the preliminary round round to 

Arlington, 5-1. 

Roach was hoping this could be 

the year Peabody breaks though to 

get its first-ever tournament win. 

“We play a tough regular-season 

schedule,” she said. 

Actually, Roach, a member of the 

St. Mary’s Varsity Club, was in both 

lockerrooms for last Wednesday’s 

game She was in the visiting lockerroom 

and her picture was in the 

home room. 

“Frank has a tradition of putting 

pictures of all of his players who 

go on to play college hockey on the 

wall of the home locker room, so 

that’s why my picture, as the first 

player in St. Mary’s history to play 

in college, is on that wall. I think it 

Foley’s athletic achievements 

extend beyond baseball. For the 

past three years, he has been the 

Bobcats’ starting punter. Last fall he 

averaged 36.1 yards per punt in nine 

games. As a sophomore in 2016, 

he broke the Bates single season 

record for most punts in week six, 

finishing with 81 punts in all while 

averaging 37.9 yards per punt. His 

efforts earned him Second Team 

All-NESCAC honors. 

Freshman year, Foley averaged 

37.2 yards per punt. He

is so ironic, when you think of all the 

teams we could have played, it’s St. 

Mary’s where I was there when it all 

started.” 

Under Roach, the Peabody/ 

Lynnfield program has grown by 

leaps and bounds. 

The Tanners set program records 

for most wins (11), most 

games above .500 (four), fewest 

games needed to clinch a tournament 

spot (17), and most times 

qualified for the tournament (2). 

Sophomore Sammie Mirasolo set a 

single-season scoring record with 41 

points and became the first Tanner to 

win a league (Northeastern Hockey 

League) MVP award. 

The Tanners also set a program 

record for the their highest tournament 

seed (25th) and finished with 

a program-best record. 

Ex-St. John’s Prep pitcher Foley signs with Navs 

was named NESCAC Special 

Teams Player of the Week on 

Nov. 1, 2015, after the Bobcats’ 

10-9 win over Colby College. He 

punted the ball nine times, seven 

of which pinned the Mules inside 

their 20, averaging 38.3 yards per 

punt for the game. 

The Navigators will be announcing 

more additions to the 

roster in the coming weeks and 

months in preparation for the 

2018 season, which begins on 

May 31.

Things keep getting better for girls track 

ROUNDUP 


Things just keep better and better 

for the Lynnfield girls track team. 

Sunday morning at the East Coast 

Invitational at the Reggie Lewis 

Center, the sprint medley relay team 

of Ashley Mitchell (400), Lauren 

Mitchell (200), Juliana Passatempo 

(200) and Kate Mitchell (800) 

qualified for the the New Balance 

Indoor Nationals that will be held 

March 9-11 at the Armory Track 

and Field Center in New York City. 

Ashley Mitchell finished third in 

the 400 (1:03.48), while Lauren 

Mitchell, running the first 200 of 

her young career, finished ninth 

(29.10) and Passatempo finished 

10th (29.17). 

“I didn’t have to run because 

they converted my 1,000 time to a 

2:14 equivalent in the 800, so once 

Lauren, Ashley and Juliana posted 

their times, those combined with 

mine were enough for us to qualify 

as a team,” said Kate Mitchell. “I 

am so excited for my sisters to have 

the experience of running nationals, 

and for Juliana, it is just a perfect reward 

for her after deciding to give 

up basketball and run track this 

season. It is so rewarding to have 

qualified, but after that once we get 

there and compete, it’s all about enjoying 

the experience and having 

some fun.” 

Senior captain Nick Kinnon also 

competed in the meet. He finished 

third in the boys 200 in 23.08 and 

just missed the qualifying mark of 

21.44. 

BOYS HOCKEY 

The Lynnfield boys hockey team 

wrapped up the regular season 

Friday afternoon with a solid 3-3 

tie against Medfield at Sgt. Pirelli 

Veterans Rink in Franklin. Senior 

captain Tyler Murphy led the offense 

with three power play goals. 

The Pioneers finished the year 

12-5-3 and earned the No. 3 seed in 

the Division 3 North Tournament, 

which began last night with a game 

against No. 14 Wilmington (11-9) 

at Ryan Rink in Watertown (results 

too late to print). 

After a scoreless first period, 

Lynnfield jumped out to a 2-0 lead 

midway through the second period. 

Medfield cut the deficit to 2-1 with 

a goal with 6:48 to go in the period, 

then added two goals in a span of 

less than a minute in the third to lead 

3-2. With 4:27 to go, Murphy netted 

the equalizer (from Jaret Simpson). 

Senior captain Joey Mack notched 

two assists, while George DeRoche 

and senior captain Cooper Marengi 

had one assist each. 

The Pioneers’ 12 wins are the 

most in the 6-year tenure of head 

coach Jon Gardner, who has led the 

Pioneers to three straight tourney appearances. 

The Pioneers are hoping 

to improve on last season when they 

upset Winthrop in the first round, 

4-0, only to be eliminated in the 

quarterfinals by Saugus, 5-2. 

Lynnfield 3, Gloucester 1 

At Talbot Rink Feb. 21, the 

Pioneers again were strong on the 

power play with two power play 

tallies. Marengi staked the Pioneers 

to a 1-0 lead with a power play goal 

with about four minutes left in the 

first period. DeRoche and Mack 

picked up assists. Gloucester got on 

the board less than a minute later, to 

send the team into intermission tied 

at 1-1. 

After a scoreless second period, 

the Pioneers put the game out of 

reach with two goals in the third 

period, the first Murphy on a power 

play at 14:00 (from DeRoche and 

Mack), and the second by DeRoche 

at 2:49 (from Marengi and Murphy).

the score was tied 2-2 with 12 minutes 

left to go in the game, but the 

Sachems scored three straight goals 

in a span of a little more than three 

minutes to put the Pioneers in a 5-2 

hole. 

DeRoche led the offense with a 

goal and an assist, while Mack and 

Simpson also scored.

Seventh graders win third straight hockey title 

The Lynnfield Middle School seventh 

grade hockey team captured their third 

consecutive middle school title Saturday 

night at Phillips Andover, defeating 

Newburyport in the championship game, 

4-0. 

Dan McSweeney earned the shutout in 

net, turning away everything the Clippers 

threw at him, while offensively, it was 

a total team effort with four Pioneers 

scoring goals. 

Lucas Cook got things started in 

the first period. He fired a low, hard 

shot from the point that deflected off a 

Newburyport skate into the net to give 

the Pioneers the early lead. Minutes 

later, Drew Damiani made a nifty move 

along the boards to slip past a couple of 

Clipper defenders and then blasted a shot 

that beat the Newburyport goalie to make 

it 2-0. 

Nick Heaslip then made it 3-0 in the 

second period. He made a strong end to 

end rush and finished with a laser through 

the goalie’s legs. In the third Nick Lucich 

put the game out of reach when he roofed 

a shot top shelf just under the crossbar to 

make it 4-0. 

Head coach Sean Powers credited 

the team’s victory to the strong forechecking 

and backchecking from the 

forwards from start to finish. “They 

never let Newburyport get any rhythm 

offensively,” said Powers. “This is the 

third middle school title that this crew 

of players has won since they started 

playing middle school hockey together in 

the fifth grade and that is how they won 

all three championship games. They are 

a fun group of kids to coach.”

PVMHS student assists in saving life 

A Peabody High School senior 

in the medical assistant 

program has first-hand experience 

in the importance of CPR 

training. 

Nicole Venuti and her fellow 

medical assistant students 

recently wrote a letter 

to Governor Charlie Baker 

requiring all high school seniors 

to have CPR and AED 

training as a graduation requirement. 

The action was 

inspired by senior medical 

assistant student Franklin 

Marcelino, who did his senior 

research project on the importance 

of cardiopulmonary 

resuscitation. 

Earlier this year, Venuti put 

her CPR experience to lifesaving 

use. 

On Jan. 13, Venuti was finishing 

up her shift as a cashier 

at Market Basket when 

she and a co-worker, James 

Dean, heard a scream from 

the back of the store. They 

found a person who was not 

breathing and had no pulse 

on the floor. 

Venuti sprung into action 

and performed “hands only” 

CPR while the other employee 

called 911 until there was 

a pulse. At that time, the Middleton 

ambulance arrived and 

took over care of the person. 

Venuti said her medical training 

from Peabody High gave 

her the knowledge to jump in 

and help. 

“It was my first instinct to 

help,” she said. 

Venuti and Marcelino 

both said CPR certification 

and AED training as a high 

school requirement for graduation 

should be viewed as 

a “no-brainer.” “Education is 

key to survival,” Marcelino 

said. “You never know when 

these skills will be used, but 

you want to have them just in 

case it is your loved one.”
