Bombs away for Pioneers<br />

FILE PHOTOS<br />

The Lynnfield baseball team caught home-run fever last week, blasting four home runs over a 3-game stretch. Fernando Gonzalez, left, started the party<br />

with a grand slam in a 6-2 win over Ipswich at home May 2, then Dan Jameson, center, hit a solo shot in an 8-2 win at Manchester-Essex Thursday. Cooper<br />

Marengi got in on the fun Friday night, smashing two 2-run bombs against host Malden in the Pioneers’ 15-4 win.<br />

Girls tennis team rolls to fifth straight win<br />

By Anne Marie Tobin<br />

The Lynnfield girls tennis team<br />

(7-1) rolled to its fifth straight win<br />

Monday, defeating Ipswich 5-0 at<br />

the middle school.<br />

Emma Rocco and Grace Sokol<br />

won their first varsity match,<br />

taking the second doubles match,<br />

6-0, 6-2. Celeste Joly won her<br />

first career singles match with a<br />

6-0, 7-5 win at third singles.<br />

Alexa Vittiglio bumped up to<br />

first singles and won, 6-0, 6-0,<br />

while Emma Gallucci bumped up<br />

to second singles and won, 6-0,<br />

6-1.<br />

Makayla Maffeo and Clare Yang<br />

picked up the Pioneers’ final point,<br />

winning at first doubles 6-2, 6-3.<br />

“We moved kids up and into<br />

matches that they normally don’t<br />

play, so it was nice for them to<br />

hang in there and have the opportunity<br />

to contribute,” said<br />

Lynnfield coach Craig Stone.<br />

Lynnfield 4, Rockport 1<br />

At Rockport Thursday, the<br />

Pioneers battled through rainy<br />

conditions and swept the singles<br />

matches to seal the victory. The<br />

match was delayed for an hour<br />

and a half so the teams played abbreviated<br />

matches to get the match<br />

in before any more rain could fall.<br />

Elena Moisidis paired with Joly<br />

at first doubles and won her first<br />

varsity match, 4-0, 4-1.<br />

Megan Nevils got off to a slow<br />

start but rallied to come from behind<br />

to take the first singles match<br />

1-4, 4-1 (7-0), while Bella Ferreira<br />

won at second singles, 4-2, 5-3.<br />

Gillian Skelley took the third<br />

singles match, 4-0, 4-1, while<br />

Christina Albano and Nina Dunn<br />

dropped a close one at second<br />

doubles, 4-5, 1-4.<br />

“Megan rebounded into form<br />

and dominated the second set<br />

as well as the tie-breaker,” said<br />

Stone. “Ferreira bumped up to<br />

second singles and was up to<br />

the challenge. She is rapidly becoming<br />

one of the best retrievers<br />

in the game.<br />

“Our team showed its depth<br />

and balance, playing without three<br />

starters, and still came away with<br />

a win.”<br />
