Growing up on Evans Road, 

Chrissy Lebel loved dashing the 

two blocks to Treadwell’s Ice 

Cream and ordering mocha chip. 

Flash forward to today when 

the entrepreneur and professional 

sign maker is busy creating new 

signs for her favorite ice cream 

place. 

“I’m focusing on the ‘diner and 

drive-ins’ era signs,” the Peabody 

resident said. “It’s sentimental 

for me.”

I thoroughly enjoyed your 

article about the improvements 

being made to Crystal Lake. I 

grew up on Johnson St. which 

was a 10 minute walk to the 

lake and it was an important 

part of my young life. 

At that time, there were 

nothing but farms anywhere 

near the lake and the water was 

pristine and teeming with fish. 

People from all over Peabody 

came there to either fish or just 

enjoy nature at its best. The lake 

is partially spring fed and when 

the surface was calm it was 

easy to see the water bubbling 

up from the springs below. 

Around these springs was the 

best fishing. 

One day my boyhood chum, 

Paul Driscoll and I caught over 

50 fish in about two hours, situated 

in a canoe over a spring. 

Of course, we released most of 

them, just keeping the biggest, 

mostly perch. In the winter, the 

frozen lake was extremely popular 

for skating. There were always 

hockey games underway 

with lots of space left for skaters 

of various skills. 

Across from where the shopping 

center is now, a parking 

area was built out into the lake, 

so that fire trucks could fill their 

tanks from the deeper water. 

We never did any swimming 

because there was no beach 

but there was a long sandbar 

down by the outlet into "The 

Dr.'s Pond," where we used to 

wade out to fish. On the side

Crystal Lake memories 

BOSTON 

FENCE 

where Taylor Sreet. goes up the 

hill, there was a tunnel under 

the road, built to allow cows to 

drink at the lake without having 

to cross the road. We camped 

overnight, many times, in the 

woods, across the lake. 

All this happened during 

World War II and most of the 

local men 18 and older were gone 

off to war. My friends and I were 

just a little too young for that war 

but we were just the right age for 

the Korean War. After World War 

II, the building boom hit West 

Peabody like a ton of bricks and 

all that construction, residential 

and commercial, was probably 

somewhat related to the downgrading 

of the lake. 

After the Korean War, I became 

a home builder and I actually 

built a house a short ways 

up Taylor Street so maybe, I, 

unknowingly, contributed to 

the problem. Anyway, it's a 

wonderful thing that the lake 

is being reclaimed. I now 

live in Maine, but I have extremely 

fond memories of West 

Peabody. I'll be there to see the 

lake at the completion of the 

reclamation. 

P.S. Thanks to dear friends, 

and lifelong Peabody residents, 

Russ and Marion Bowden, who 

have seen the light and now live 

in West Peabody, we subscribe 

to the Peabody Weekly News. 

We love it.

with an adjoining door to fellow 

sign maker Ted Kiley’s shop, 

Lebel works with paint and 

wood, with clients including 

Putnam Pantry. She also hand 

letters names onto commercial 

trucks and applies her brush 

and paint to the sides of boats to 

paint the vessel’s name. 

She took a long path to her 

trade. While attending Veterans 

Memorial High School, she 

was interested in art but took 

vocational education courses in 

hairdressing. 

“My mom didn’t think I was 

going to graduate regular high 

school,” she said. 

She cut hair for five years and 

tended bar. She also enrolled in 

the now-closed Butera School 

of Art in Boston, drawing inspiration 

from graffiti for her art. 

“When I got out of school, I 

did layout work on computers. 

It was boring,” she said.

BOSTON — Peabody’s legislative 

delegation zeroed in on 

education as lawmakers pushed 

this month to wrap up discussions 

on state spending. 

State Reps. Ted Speliotis and 

Thomas Walsh secured $100,000 

to help Peabody schools reduce 

kindergarten class sizes to allow 

increased one-on-one attention 

for students. 

Speliotis said they also succeeded 

in pushing for spending 

statewide on advanced placement 

class (AP) tutoring. He 

said Peabody Veterans Memorial 

High School teachers helped 

pioneer AP tutoring with strong 

results. 

“Fewer than 100 students 

were taking AP classes 10 years 

ago and, this year, 24 percent of 

kids at Peabody High are taking 

AP,” Speliotis said. 

The Legislature approved an 

11.5 percent increase in spending 

on AP tutoring. Speliotis 

said the Legislature also increased 

spending on YMCA

Sign painter Chrissy Lebel is a Peabody native whose customers 

include Treadwell’s, her favorite childhood ice cream spot. 

Kiley’s name came up in a 

conversation during one of her 

bartending shifts at the Four 

Winds and she met the Lewis of 

Lynn owner and spent an hour 

talking with Kiley about sign 

making. 

“He said, ‘Do what you like 

to do,’” she said. 

Lebel started sign painting 

in 2011 and moved to Mount 

Vernon Street in Lynn three 

years ago. She said Kiley has 

been a mentor and helping hand 

on jobs she has undertaken. 

“He’s a second set of eyes for 

me on a project,” she said. 

Lebel draws inspiration from 

Lynn architecture and signs that 

have survived the decades. 

She plans to finish the 

Treadwell’s signs by August — 

just in time for another scoop of 

mocha chip. 

Peabody delegation 

zeroes in on education 

programs across the state. 

Walsh said legislators worked 

to ensure that state spending on 

projects financed through bond 

spending include “wayfinding” 

at Centennial Park. He said 

the commercial area needs improved 

signage. 

“One of the difficulties is once 

you come off the highway, you 

don’t know whether to go left or 

right,” Walsh said. 

House Minority Leader 

Bradley H. Jones, Jr. (R-North 

Reading) and state Sen. Brendan 

Crighton (D-Lynn), who 

represents Lynnfield in the Legislature, 

joined forces to bolster 

police training. 

The pair voted to support the 

creation of a new two dollar car 

rental surcharge, which would 

take effect on Jan. 1, 2019. The 

proceeds from this surcharge 

will be used to pay for basic 

training for new police recruits, 

as well as mandatory in-service 

training and specialized training 

for veteran police officers across 

the Commonwealth. 

Legislation outlining the dedicated 

surcharge is on Gov. Baker’s 

desk awaiting his signature. 

“This is a long overdue bill 

that will help support critical 

training programs for police officers 

in Massachusetts,” said 

Jones. “Creating a dedicated revenue 

stream to fund this training 

will also help to ease the financial 

burden on communities like 

Lynnfield that currently have to 

shoulder these costs.” 

The Legislature established a 

new Municipal Police Training 

Fund as part of the criminal justice 

reform bill, which was signed into 

law by the governor on April 13. 

The fund is already authorized to 

receive money from the state’s 

Marijuana Regulation Fund, including 

revenues generated from 

the licensing of marijuana establishments 

and the state tax on recreational 

marijuana sales. 

The car rental surcharge is expected 

to provide the Municipal 

Police Training Fund with an additional 

$8 million in revenues. 

Certain car rentals will be exempt 

from the surcharge, including 

rentals lasting less than 12 

hours and ride-sharing services 

offered through companies like 

Uber and Lyft. 

“Over the years we have heard 

loud and clear from police officers 

and departments that more 

resources are needed for police 

training,” said Crighton, adding, 

“I’m pleased that through this 

dedicated revenue source, we 

can adequately fund the training 

that helps keep both our police 

and communities safe.” 

Baker has until July 28 to 

sign the bill into law.

The inspiration for the 

Peabody Historical Society & 

Museum’s centerpiece summer 

exhibition came to curator 

Kelly Daniell while rummaging 

through a closet. 

The chance exploration in 

one of the eight properties the 

society owns uncovered a collection 

of high school sports 

varsity sweaters and sparked 

the idea of organizing and exhibiting 

“Play Ball: the story of 

sports in Peabody.” 

The exhibit opened in the society’s 

Osborne-Salata House, 

33 Washington St., in May and 

attracted three generations of 

Peabody athletes who swapped 

stories and proudly told tales of 

the big games to appreciative 

children and grandchildren. 

“We asked long-time residents 

to name the athletes we 

should highlight. Talking to 

families was inspiring,” said 

Daniell. 

Filling two rooms in the 

historic house, “Play Ball” 

highlights great 20th century 

wins and epic playfield contests 

in Peabody sports his-

Purpose Comedy Improv 

Troupe at the Northeast Arc’s 

Black Box Theater, 22 Foster 

St., on Saturday, July 28. 

Doors open at 6 p.m. with 

performances from 7-9 p.m. 

The style of Accidentally 

on Purpose is similar to the 

TV show "Whose Line is it 

Anyway?" complete with audience 

interaction. Come with 

suggestions for the group, then 

sit back and watch the laughter 

and madness ensue as the 

troupe puts your suggestions 

to work in hilarious improvisational 

scenes. Audience 

members contribute ideas and 

suggestions to the troupe, and 

(if they desire) can join the 

tory. Uniforms and equipment 

are on display and the exhibit 

also reveals famous athletes 

contemporary residents maybe 

not familiar to all current city 

residents. 

Golfer Jen Webster is featured 

along with fencer Joseph 

E. Pechinsky, a career city firefighter 

and artist who founded 

the Tanner City Fencing Club 

in 1958. 

City greats like John 

Bezemes, who played football 

for the College of the Holy 

Cross and the Philadelphia 

Eagles are highlighted. He 

taught locally for 30 years and 

his career is matched by Arthur 

Adamopoulos’ coaching career 

from 1961 to 1981. 

“Big Bill” Seeglitz is also 

profiled in the exhibit and another 

display delves into the 

high school rivalry between 

Peabody and Charleston, South 

Carolina, including Peabody’s 

threat to boycott a 1921 game in 

the southern city if Joe Luz, who 

Daniell described as a dark-complected 

Portuguese-American, 

was banned from playing. 

Daniell, a Danvers native 

who has been the society’s curator 

for three years, said sports

“There are very few instances

common ground. Sports is one 

of them.” 

Daniell’s research turned up 

a 1862 letter penned by local 

Peabody boys’ baseball players 

challenging women players to 

a game. She also found a photograph 

of the “University of 

Peabody” football players -— 

gridiron stalwarts who aged out

Eastern Bank has donated $100,000 to support a robotic surgery program North Shore 

Medical Center. From left, Dr. David Roberts, Quincy Miller, president, Eastern Bank, Michael

Eastern Bank pledges $100k 

to North Shore Medical Center 

Eastern Bank has provided 

a $100,000 grant to the North 

Shore Medical Center (NSMC) 

to support a robotic surgery 

program. 

A surgical robot is used in 

prostate surgery and other surgical 

disciplines. During the 

operation, a surgeon guided by 

high-definition, 3-D views of 

the surgical site directs robotic 

arms to perform intricate procedures. 

The robot is a remote extension 

of the surgeon’s hands 

and its instrumentation enables 

better access, maneuverability 

and technical precision, NSMC 

said. 

“Creating a robotic surgery 

Love America Tour 

coming to the North Shore 

A group of 160 international 

volunteers is heading to the 

North Shore in August for a nationwide 

tour to spread a message 

of unity and peace. 

The 21-city tour will feature 

multicultural concerts and 

meditation workshops. “Out 

of love for America” was the 

young volunteers’ reply to the 

question of why they were 

coming all this way, renting 

vans and taking to the highways 

for a coast to coast encounter 

with Americans of all 

ages and backgrounds. 

Featured in the music and 

meditation programs will be 

Sahaja Yoga Meditation. 

The Love America Tour is 

sponsored by the nonprofit 

organization Sahaja Yoga 

International, which has been 

offering free community outreach 

programs in more than 

121 countries. 

In the U.S., Sahaja Yoga 

International has partnered with 

program on the North Shore 

will enable us to bring the latest 

surgical technology to our patients,” 

said Dr. Marc S. Rubin, 

chair of surgery at NSMC, in a 

statement. 

In 2018, the Davenport Fund 

donated a $1 million challenge 

grant to launch an additional 

$1 million fund drive to support 

the robotics program. The 

Eastern Bank gift, along with 

other leadership gifts and funds 

raised from the North Shore 

Cancer Walk, will bring NSMC 

closer to its $1 million goal. 

“Robotic surgery’s greatest 

advantages include smaller incisions, 

reduced pain and discomfort, 

and faster recovery for 

patients,” said Rubin. “We are 

excited to offer this new technology 

and improve the surgical 

recovery process.” 

Robert Rivers, CEO of 

Eastern Bank, said since the 

bank’s founding 200 years 

ago, supporting and advocating 

for the North Shore has been 

core to the lender’s vision and 

values. 

“North Shore Medical Center 

is a bedrock in the community 

and we couldn’t be prouder to 

have our philanthropic dollars 

support the latest innovations 

in patient care,” Rivers said in 

a statement. 

the United Nations, UNESCO, 

the National Institutes of 

Health, and Boys & Girls Clubs 

of America. Working with 

HealthCorps for the past 10 

years, thousands of U.S. high 

school students have learned 

how to meditate. 

In 2018 at the annual 

HealthCorps Gala in New York 

City, Dr. Oz and the organization 

honored Sahaja Yoga 

Meditation for positively impacting 

the lives of millions of 

American youth. 

Corporations such as 

Microsoft, Amazon and 

Deloitte have also participated 

in meditation training 

programs for employees and 

managers. 

Jean-Philippe Courtois, president 

of Microsoft International, 

said he appreciated the benefits 

of Sahaja Yoga Meditation. 

“I have been impressed by 

the unsolicited feedback I received 

from Microsoft employees 

and managers who 

took part in the meditation 

training programs,” Courtois 

said in a statement. “They 

all speak of a significant improvement 

in their quality 

of life and well-being, expressing 

gratitude for the 

valuable experience that they 

were offered.” 

The three-week tour arrives 

in Greater Boston on August 

21. The tour will offer free 

programs to local businesses, 

school and public venues 

throughout that time span. If 

you are interested in having a 

class come to you please contact

REDDENING RESPONSE 

The aptly-named condition known as “red man syndrome” is a 

response or hypersensitive reaction to taking the antibiotic “vancomycin,” 

which is prescribed to treat serious infections (including 

those of the bone, blood, and skin). This antibiotic is commonly used 

in intensive care units and often prescribed to patients who are 

allergic to penicillin or cephalosporins. Red man syndrome occurs in 

about 5 percent to 13 percent of patients who receive vancomycin. 

Initial symptoms typically consist of skin reddening of the face, neck, 

and upper torso, followed by itching, burning, fever, and chills. After 

about six days, skin thickens and begins to peel. Administering 

diphenhydramine to a patient before his or her first vancomycin 

infusion can prevent red man syndrome. 

In many cases, a reaction following vancomycin infusion is so mild 

that it may go unnoticed. People may also experience discomfort and 

burning and itching sensations. For more information, please call 

VILLAGE PHARMACY at 781-334-3133, or see us in the Colonial 

Shopping Center. Next to your personal doctor, your pharmacist is 

the most informed about the various medications available and their 

contraindications. 

P.S. While red man syndrome is not life-threatening, it can lead to 

cardiac arrest.

Sweet ideas for zucchini 

By Rosalie Harrington 

After 20 years in the restaurant 

business and having raised 

my four kids into various stages 

of adulthood, I was ready for 

some variety to my life. With 

the support of my son, who had 

invited me to stay in his apartment 

in New York, and my husband, 

who would stay behind 

and keep the restaurant going, 

I spend a few months studying 

acting at the Lee Strasberg 

Theater and Film Institute in 

New York. 

I had recently completed 

shooting 52 shows for the 

fledgling Food Network, and 

really enjoyed it. The network, 

originally known as TVFN, 

was brand new, and I was 

thrilled when they asked me to 

be among their first hosts. My 

old boss from Channel 7, Raysa 

Bonow, who had directed the 

Look program I was on a few 

years earlier, was helping to get 

the Food Network launched, 

and it was great to have a national 

opportunity. All of this 

tickled an acting bug, and since 

my bachelor son said I could 

live with him for a few months 

in his West Village apartment, 

it was an opportunity to be 

grabbed. 

Even now, I’m glad I did. 

The next few months were so 

much fun. My best friend in 

school was Telly Savalas’ niece, 

Aphrodite, and we just clicked. 

I was much older than most 

of the students, and was often 

asked to play roles like aunt, 

mother, or older sister in some 

of the plays. My time with my 

son was wonderful and I did 

learn some techniques to help 

me relax in front of the camera. 

Having the chance to play at 

living in Manhattan was also 

wonderful - though I’d been 

to college, I had done so as a 

commuter, and a city kid, so my 

brief time at Strasberg gave me 

the feeling of being a ‘real’ college 

student. 

My son lived in an amazing 

restaurant neighborhood, and 

he delighted in introducing me 

to some of the best - almost as 

much as I enjoyed the experience. 

One of his favorites was 

Lupa, one of the first of Mario 

Batali’s efforts. It is a tiny trattoria 

in the Village. I made a plan 

to interview Mario for a radio 

piece for a show I was doing 

called “Delicious Encounters.” 

My husband Todd was in town 

for a few days, so the two of us 

went to Lupa at Mario’s invitation 

to interview him during 

the day, before the restaurant 

opened. Mario was caring for 

his 2-year-old, and couldn’t 

have been more charming. He 

took me into the kitchen with a 

“let’s cook something together” 

invitation. In a few minutes 

he rinsed a few cups of chickpeas 

in water, dried them with 

a paper towel and tossed them 

into a pan with olive oil and 

garlic for a quick saute. Next, 

he added a teaspoon of freshly 

chopped rosemary, then a cup 

of chicken broth. With each 

additional ingredient he would 

snap his wrist and send the ingredients 

airborne a few times 

before adding another. Next in 

was a few cups of fresh cooked 

pasta and a heaping handful of 

Pecorino. 

Mario plated the food in the 

dining room and served us some 

delicious wine, then joined us 

for lunch and a great conversation 

about food. It was one of 

the highlights of my New York 

experience. The recent accusations 

of inappropriate behavior 

against him are disappointing, 

of course, but I will always remember 

how cordial and gracious 

he was to us. 

I enjoy the dessert book, 

“Dolce Italiano,” written by 

Gina De Palma, who worked 

at Babbo, another of Mario’s 

restaurants and a favorite of 

ours. Her recipes are easy to 

follow, delicious and fresh 

tasting. I enjoy her olive oil/ 

zucchini cake with lemon glaze 

(with only a few variations I’ve 

made over the years). It is delicious. 

All my gardening friends 

are already supplying me with 

zucchini from their gardens, so 

this is timely to deal with the 

overflow supply. I hope you 

enjoy this cake and some other 

favorite zucchini ideas.

Rosalie’s zucchini olive oil cake with lemon glaze. 

Zucchini ideas 

I prefer the narrow, long thin zucchini. Wash and dry them and cut into half-inch slices on 

the diagonal. 

— Heat a pancake grill and oil it with an olive oil spray. 

Sprinkle a few fresh thyme and or rosemary onto the grill and place the zucchini right on 

top of the herbs. Turn over after a few minutes, careful not to brown too much. Both sides 

should be nicely golden. 

Save for zucchini Parmesan, sandwiches with roasted peppers and soft cheese, or just a nice 

accompaniment as a side dish with meat or fish. 

— Minestrone is delicious with finely chopped vegetables, especially red pepper, celery, carrot, 

summer squash, zucchini. 

Puree a few tomatoes in the food processor after you saute the veggies in a little olive oil and 

garlic, then cover the veggies with the tomatoes and broth. 

Season with salt and pepper, a sprinkle of fresh thyme and add a few cups of green beans the 

last few minutes, for some crunch. Serve with a side of pesto and some grated cheese. 

— For a fresh summer salad that is so easy to make, grate a few zucchini in a bowl. In another 

bowl mix a half cup of olive oil with the juice of half a lemon, a tablespoon of maple syrup, a pinch 

of dijon mustard, salt and pepper and whisk well. 

Toss some of the dressing with grated zucchini. 

Any fresh herb like cilantro, flat leaf parsley, basil is nice chopped with this. Grate some Pecorino 

over the salad at serving time. 

— Zucchini flowers like the ones that I decorated the cake with are stuffed with ricotta and 

then dipped in a flour and beer tempura batter and deep fried. They are considered very special 

in Italy, and at my house. Enjoy the many opportunities that zucchini can provide along 

with the other great seasonal veggies. 

Zucchini Olive Oil Cake 

with Lemon Glaze 

— Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

— Grease a 10-inch bundt pan well with Crisco and then sprinkle with flour, shaking off the excess. 

— Place 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon 

salt in a bowl and whisk together with 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon and 

ginger, set aside. 

— In a mixer bowl, beat 3 eggs with 1¾ cup sugar and 1 cup of olive oil for 3 minutes. 

— Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla, scrape sides of bowl. Beat in dry ingredients on low speed all at once. 

— Add 1 cup of nut pieces and 1 teaspoon chopped candied ginger, stir to mix. 

— Pour into prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes until knife inserted comes out clean. 

— Prepare the glaze while the cake is baking. 

— In a small bowl, whisk 3/4 cup of fresh lemon juice with 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup 

of confectioners sugar. 

— Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes, and then invert onto a wire rack. Brush with glaze when 

cake cools off. Decorate with a few zucchini flowers.

Sports 

Peabody’s Bettencourt pitcher perfect 

By Anne Marie Tobin 

BRISTOL, CT — When it comes to perfect games, it’s getting to be a habit for 

12-year-old Abby Bettencourt. 

All she did was throw her third perfect game in three years (and second of the 

summer season) to lead the Peabody Tanners 12-year-old Softball All-Stars to a 

4-0 win over Maryland state champion Hurlock Sunday at the Little League East 

Regional Tournament at the A. Bartlett Giamatti 

Training Center. 

The Tanners moved on to play Maine (see story 

below) state champion, York Little League, Monday 

morning. 

Bettencourt dominated from start to finish, needing 

only 63 pitches to polish off the game in a little more 

than an hour with the final play coming, fittingly on 

a chopper back to Bettencourt in the circle. 

“She was awesome today,” said Peabody coach 

Mark Bettencourt. “Her drop curve was just deadly. 

It was so amazing because it was the same pitch we 

couldn’t throw yesterday when we had to rely on the 

changeup. You never want to throw that drop curve 

with two strikes because it’s so hard to catch, so usually 

you go with a fastball but when the curve wasn’t 

working early we went to the drop curve and it was 

so good today that we had to throw it, even with two 

strikes.” 

Defense played a huge role in the game and suffice 

it to say that the right side of Peabody’s infield had a 

big hand in the no-no. While Bettencourt struck out 

seven, not a single Hurlock batted ball touched the 

outfield grass. Bettencourt spotted her drop curve 

perfectly, inducing eight ground ball outs in all, all 

to the right side. 

“I have never been a part of a game when not a 

single ball went to the outfield, never,” said Mark 

Bettencourt. 

In Peabody’s opening round 5-0 loss to 

Pennsylvania Saturday, the Tanners struggled to field 

bunts. But Sunday was a horse of a different color. 

Catcher Logan Lomasney may have saved the perfect 

game in the first inning when she bare-handed a bunt 

off the grass on the third base line and fired a perfect 

throw to first to get No. 2 hitter Cassidy Mowbray. 

Bettencourt’s younger sister Lizzie closed out the inning, snagging a tricky foul-ball 

pop-up halfway between first base and the dugout. 

In the second, Bettencourt helped herself with two stellar defensive plays, the first 

when she stabbed a hard hit grounder on the back hand, and the second when she 

fielded another bunt and made a strong throw to Lizzie for the final out of the inning. 

But the defensive star of the game was second baseman Hailey Roach who had 

four putouts and two assists. 

“She had the game of her life,” said Mark Bettencourt. “I thought we were in big 

trouble in the fifth when their No. 4 hitter hit a rocket, a real shot, and I thought, 

there is goes, that’s the one ball to get through, but Hailey handled it with ease. She 

was incredible today. After the first game we made some adjustments because of the 

grass and it paid off.” 

Both teams went down 1-2-3 in the first, but 

Peabody’s bottom half of the order came up clutch 

in the top of the second. 

Avery Grieco led off the inning with a single and 

alertly took second when the ball got loose. Kiley 

Doolin moved her to third with a ground out, then 

Penelope Spack plated Grieco with what turned out 

to be the game-winning run with a grounder back 

to the circle. 

Lizzie Bettencourt and Mia Philbrook, the No. 7 

and No. 8 hitters, kept the inning alive with backto-back 

singles but were stranded when Roach, 

who had Peabody’s only hit in Saturday’s 5-0 loss 

to Pennsylvania, grounded to third. 

Peabody doubled its lead to 2-0 when Abby 

Bettencourt hit a shot to third base, that Hurlock 

third baseman knocked down, but fired wide to 

first with Bettencourt taking second on the errant 

throw. Bettencourt then stole third and kept going 

home when the throw got away from Hurlock. 

“Lizzie and Mia hit the ball hard, but Abby’s 

ball almost killed their third baseman it was hit so 

hard,” said Mark Bettencourt. “I was surprised she 

stayed in the game, to be honest.” 

Peabody added two insurance runs in the top of 

the fifth, and, once again, the bottom of the order 

FILE PHOTO 

Abby Bettencourt struck out seven in her perfect game 

against Maryland in the Little League softball regionals. 

played a big role. 

Marissa Simmons, in for Philbrook, worked a 

leadoff walk, reached second on a wild pitch and 

scored on a towering double to left field by Abby 

Bettencourt. Bettencourt needed only two pitches 

to score. She stole third and then scored on a 

passed ball to make it 4-0. 

“That was a great at-bat from Marissa, she kept fighting off foul balls until she 

finally walked,” said Mark Bettencourt. “Then Abby just crushed that double, especially 

with their left field playing so deep. 

Loss to Maine spells end of the season 

The Peabody Tanners dropped a heartbreaker 

Monday, losing to Maine state champion York 1-0 to 

bring their season to a close. 

The game proved the old adage that timing is everything, 

especially when it comes to sports. 

The only run of the game, wouldn’t have been a run 

last year, or any other year for that matter since Little 

League added softball in 1974. But this year, Little 

League softball added instant replay. 

The decision came back to bite the Tanners after York 

challenged the call of the first base umpire in the third 

inning. He called York’s Carlie Welch out at first on a 

grounder with the bases loaded, seemingly ending the 

inning. But the on-field decision was reversed, gifting 

York with the only run of the game. 

“I kept telling the Little League people, they had 

to choose this year to make that a new rule,” said 

Bettencourt. “It all comes back to playing on grass. 

That would never have been a close play if played on 

a regular dirt field, but we had our opportunities with 

people in scoring position, but their pitcher just threw 

shrapnel. She threw a very heavy ball that exploded.” 

The game was a pitchers’ duel with both pitchers - 

Madison Raymond for York and Abby Bettencourt for 

Peabody - tossing 2-hitters. Raymond was dominant, 

striking out the side three times, finishing with 14, 

while Bettencourt struck out six. 

York’s Emerson Joyce led the bottom of the third inning 

with an infield hit and advanced to second on a 

walk to Bourque. Petrillo got Joyce on a force at third 

on a fielder’s choice. Bettencourt walked MaKayla 

Kortes to load the bases for Welch, who hit a slow 

roller to second, but Welch legged it out with Bourque 

scoring on the play. 

In the fourth Avery Grieco was hit with one out. 

Jessica Steed had the Tanners’ first base hit to move 

Grieco into scoring position, but Raymond caught the 

next batter looking. 

With one out in the fifth, Roach walked and stole 

second. Bettencourt ripped a line-drive single, moving 

Roach to third with Bettencourt taking second on the 

throw, but Raymond got the final two batters on strikes 

to end the threat. 

The Tanners did not come home empty-handed, 

however. The team was awarded the Kevin Holder 

Sportsmanship Award. 

Pennsylvania 5, Peabody 0 

Unless you are playing soccer, you can’t win if you 

can’t score. 

The Tanners took on Pennsylvania state champ 

Tunkhannock Saturday and, while they came up short, 

Mark Bettencourt was nonetheless pleased. 

“Tunkhannock was very good and we are the first 

team to play a full 6-inning game against them,” said 

Bettencourt. “They 10-run ruled every team they have 

played, so we played well.” 

Oddly enough, the fields at the Giamatti complex 

feature grass infields. Peabody learned the hard way 

right away that it’s not easy to defend small ball playing 

on grass. 

Tunkhannock’s first two batters laid down bunts that 

traveled a combined 15 feet, but beat out both for base 

hits and both ended up scoring. 

In the third, Tunkhannock opened with two straight 

hits for the third straight inning. Bettencourt saved a 

run when the next batter hit a ground ball back to her in 

the circle. Bettencourt spied the runner at third going 

home and tossed to Lomasney for the first out of the inning. 

Next up was Erin VanNess, who blooped an RBI 

single over Petrillo into short left to make it a 3-0 game. 

Tunkhannock put the game out of reach with two 

runs in the bottom of the fifth. 

Hannon carried a no-hitter into the top of the sixth. 

Roach, played the role of spoiler, lacing a 1-out single 

up the middle to break up the no-no. The only other 

Tanner to reach base was Lomasney, who walked in the 

first inning.

Tanners test out new offense at 7v7 


DANVERS — If you love 

high school football, then St. 

John’s Prep was the place to 

be Saturday for the annual 

Northeast 7v7 East Regional 

football championship. 

The tournament, formerly 

known as the Swampscott/ 

Lynnfield 7 on 7 Shootout attracted 

40 teams, which not 

only battled each other, but 

battled one downpour after 

another. 

By the time the rain 

stopped late in the afternoon 

Buckingham, Browne and 

Nichols was the last team 

standing, having beaten Milton 

in the championship game. 

The three regional Northeast 

7v7 tournaments are a football 

junkie’s dream with passing 

ruling the day. Forty teams 

competed in Saturday’s daylong 

competition, which features 

eight 40-yard long fields. 

All games are 24 minutes 

of running time. Games are 

played simultaneously with

eight brackets of five teams 

each competing to be one of the 

two teams from each bracket 

to move on to the elimination 

round. 

Among the local teams were 

St. John’s Prep, Lynnfield High, 

Bishop Fenwick High, which 

had hosted the tournament the 

last five years, and Peabody, a 

first-time participant. 

“We are changing our offense 

and are going to throw the ball 

more this year than we have in 

the last five years combined, so 

that’s why we decided to participate,” 

said Peabody head coach 

Mark Bettencourt. “That’s why 

we brought Gino Fedora over 

from Lynnfield. Who knows 

better than he does how to run 

that offense.” 

While Peabody failed to win 

a game, Fedora said the day 

was a success. 

“Absolutely we were pleased 

even though we came out a little 

flat,” said Fedora. “Especially 

considering the fact that it takes 

three years to implement a

• Tuesdays, Wednesdays, 

and Thursdays 9-11 a.m. 

• Ages 7 and up 

• Discount for repeat customers 

and second family members 

brand new spread and we only 

have three weeks to do it. We 

didn’t score a touchdown in our 

first two games and pulled them 

aside and challenged them to 

figure it out and they did, they 

scored three in each of the last 

two games, so that was a good 

showing. 

“Already I can feel the buzz 

as it has been a great summer. 

Now we need to find our identity 

and come together.” 

Four of five Tanner captains 

(Tyler Norman, Abe Kaba, 

Chriss Glass, Jake Souza) competed 

in the East Regional. 

“We usually run the ball, 

but we got a lot of good looks 

passing the ball today,” said 

Souza. “I think we went too 

deep early, but once we figured 

out we needed short passes we 

had success. The goal is to be 

50-50 or 60-40 pass to run this 

year and we have some good 

new players and transfers, like 

quarterback Matt Jandrisevits, 

so we are learning a lot and 

working together as a real 

team.” 

Bishop Fenwick was the only 

local team to advance to the 

Sweet 16. The Crusaders held 

on to beat Andover in game 

four, 21-20, to finish pool play 

2-2 and won their spot in a tiebreaker. 

They defeated Pope 

John 22-12 in the round of 16 

but were eliminated in the quarterfinals 

by eventual champion 

BB&N, 22-15. Fenwick’s 

three captains (captain Tom 

MacDonald could not participate) 

said the future of Fenwick 

football is bright. 

“We had a bad year last year 

but this year’s team has grit and 

heart,” Derek DelVecchio said. 

“Today we didn’t take any crap 

from anyone and that’s why 

I love this group. This tournament 

is always awesome, a 

great team builder.” 

For captain Keegan 

O’Connor, a St. John’s Prep 

transfer, the tournament had a 

homecoming flavor. 

“I live in Andover so it was 

great to beat them and also it 

felt a little like home being back 

here at the Prep,” O’Connor 

said. “Today we got some great 

play from our young players so 

that was good to see. Players 

like Stefano Fabbiano, who 

is only a sophomore, showed 

some good stuff on both sides 

of the ball, so I believe we are 

improving every day.” 

Key to the Crusaders’ campaign 

to get back into the postseason 

playoffs is quarterback 

Cory Bright. Bright has battled 

injuries the past two seasons. 

“I think the only season I have 

had that I was injury free was 

freshman year, but I’m healthy 

and 100 percent, so I definitely 

like our chances and today 

will help us come together as a 

team and bring Fenwick football 

back to where it belongs,” 

Bright said. 

Lynnfield is in its first year 

under new coach Pat Lamusta, 

who succeeded 10-year head 

man Neal Weidman after 

Weidman’s retirement. While 

the Pioneers finished pool 

play 1-3 and did not move on, 

Lamusta liked what he saw, especially 

against BB&N, which 

went on to win the whole thing. 

“I told the team I saw a lot of 

good stuff today and it was nice 

to see progress as the games 

went on,” Lamusta said. “By 

the fourth game, you could see 

the team was really gellin’ and 

the intensity level was right 

up there against some tough 

competition, like BB&N (won 

by BB&N 21-20) in that last 

game. They have at least two 

kids going Division 1 but we 

really held our own. I can see 

so much improvement from the 

Endicott 7v7 and they are much 

more cohesive as a group.” 

Senior Brett Cohee and junior 

Clayton Marengi alternated at 

quarterback. With Lynnfield’s 

all-time leader in touchdown 

passes, Matt Mortellite, off to 

St. Lawrence, the Pioneers’ 

quarterback position is up for 

grabs. 

“All I can say now is that 

there are potential battles for 

positions all over the field,” 

Lamusta said. “It’s going to be 

very competitive.” 

Mortellite spent his summer 

as a volunteer assistant to 

Fedora in Peabody and was 

directing the Tanners’ offense 

Saturday. 

“They did some pretty good 

things and are starting to pick 

up the new offense,” Mortellite 

said. “We didn’t win any 

games, but little by little you 

can see improvement with 

every game, so I think Peabody 

should be ready to go from the 

very start of the season.”

Legionnaires’ season comes to an end 


DANVERS — The No. 4 Middleton- 

Peabody Senior American Legion baseball 

team’s summer season came to an end 

Monday night with a tough 1-0 loss in eight 

innings to top-seeded Andover in the semifinals 

of the District 8 playoffs. 

“We lost on a seeing-eye ground ball 

between first base and second base with a 

runner at third base,” said head coach John 

Kowlaski. 

The team had gotten off to a good start in 

the playoffs, defeating No. 5 Haverhill 3-1 

Saturday night at Essex Tech. 

Middleton-Peabody fell behind 1-0 in 

the first inning, but rallied late, scratching 

out two runs in the bottom of the fifth then 

adding an insurance run in the sixth inning 

to take a 3-1 lead. Middleton-Peabody had 

only six hits, but made the most of them in 

the late innings. 

“In close games, it all comes down to 

doing the small things you need to win,” 

said head coach John Kowalski. “Tonight 

we executed at the end. We got our bunts 

down, we moved runners over and we got a 

couple of very timely hits. Nick (Iannuzzi) 

gave up just that one run on a bleeder 

over the first baseman’s head, then Eddie 

(Campbell) came on and did a nice job.” 

Peabody’s Campbell earned the win, but 

it wasn’t easy. Haverhill had runners at first 

and second with no outs in the top of the 

seventh, but Campbell buckled down to 

strike out Kyle O’Neill then got the next 

two outs on routine ground balls, the first to 

Endicott College commit Cooper Marengi 

of Lynnfield at first (unassisted) and the 

second to shortstop Andrew Manni of 

Masconomet to seal the win. 

“He just throws strikes and that’s how he 

got out of that seventh inning when they had 

runners at first and second,” said Kowalski. 

“His breaking ball was in the strike zone. 

We had Will Garofoli (of Lynnfield) 

warming up, but Eddie is just a battler and 

we knew he could finish the game for us. 

“Their guy (Carpenter) was also throwing 

strikes with his breaking ball and he had us 

off balance for a while there, but the guys 

figured it out and came up with the hits 

when we needed them.” 

With the win, Middleton/Peabody advanced 

to the next round against top-seeded 

Andover Monday night at Andover High 

School. Haverhill’s Nick Skafos led off the 

game with a single, advanced to second on 

Andrew Williams’ sacrifice bunt and got to 

third on a fly ball to center field off the bat 

of O’Neill. Kyle Bellemoro roped a single 

down the third base line to bring Skafos 

home with the first run of the game. 

Haverhill starter Will Carpenter cruised 

through the first four innings, allowing 

only two singles, one in the first inning 

to Marengi and another in the second to 

Peabody’s Jake Irvine, who recently announced 

he 

Malden Catholic’s Nick Iannuzzi started 

for Middleton-Peabody. He settled down 

and gave up and allowed only one single 

and just three baserunners over the next 

three innings. He walked the first two batters 

of the fifth inning, however, and was 

lifted in favor of Campbell who got out of 

the jam with three infield outs. 

Essex Tech’s Chris Masta started the 

fifth inning rally with an infield single. 

Peabody’s Evan Mullen sacrificed Masta 

to second, then Dean College commit Josh 

Cerretani of Peabody ripped an RBI single 

up the middle to bring Masta home to tie 

the game at 1-1. Cerretani stole second 

and kept going to third when the throw to 

second sailed into center field. Masco’s 

Pat Costigan delivered a clutch RBI single 

to bring Cerretani home with the eventual 

game-winning run.

Danvers National eliminates West 


ANDOVER — The Danvers National 12-year-old 

Little League All-Stars turned tables Saturday, coming 

from behind to defeat Peabody West 7-6 in seven innings 

at Deyermond Park to walk off with their first 

sectional title in 42 years, proving the point that, when 

it comes to Little League, you can never have a large 

enough lead. 

West led 5-1 in the Section 4 going into the bottom of 

the fourth and still led 6-2 after the top of the fifth. But 

a Danvers team battled back with two runs in the bottom 

of the fifth and two more in the bottom of the sixth to 

send the game into extras. Danvers won it in the bottom 

of the seventh when third baseman Jakob Hamel ripped 

a 2-out RBI single to bring Jake Semons home from 

third with the game-winning run, punching Danvers’ 

ticket to next weekend’s state finals in Millbury. 

“I guess the magic ran out,” said West manager Steve 

Porcella. “But I am proud of the way they fought. Both 

games against Danvers could have gone either way, 

and I think if we played them 10 times, we would each 

win five, it was that close. When you start the summer 

season, you never know how far you are going to go, 

but the kids, their families really dedicated themselves 

to this so they should be proud.” 

Danvers left the bases loaded in the first after West 

starter Jayce Dooley got out of the jam with a strikeout, 

and also leaving two runners on in the second after 

shortstop Thomas Fabbo made a nice play on a hard 

grounder. 

Fabbo led off the top of the third with a single and 

scored on a home run by Nick Villano. Dooley then 

singled and scored on a bases-loaded walk to John 

Horgan to make it 3-0. 

Danvers answered with a run in its half of the frame, 

but it could have been worse, but for a perfectly-executed 

rundown that cut down Mike Moroney attempting 

to score on Nick Robinson’s RBI single. 

West bumped the lead to 5-1 on Josh Scali’s 2-run 

homer in the top of the fourth, scoring Villano. Danvers 

responded with a run in its half of the inning to cut the 

lead to 5-2. 

In the top of the fifth, Ty Zito singled and got to 

second on an infield hit by Jacob Behn. Two batters 

later, Villano was walked intentionally to load the bases 

for Scali, who added a hit plating Zito to make it 6-2. 

Danvers closed to 6-4 in the bottom of the inning, 

then forced extra innings with two more in the sixth. 

Semons led off the bottom of the seventh with a 

single. Porcella gambled and intentionally walked 

Reardon, putting the game-winning run on second 

base. Moroney lined out to Jacob Behn at second, who 

attempted to double up Reardon at first, but the throw 

got past first, putting Semons on third. Scali intentionally 

walked Owen Gasinowski to set up a force at any 

base, but the plan backfired when Hamel delivered the 

timely hit.

Manager Steve Porcella gives a high five after Josh Scali’s home run against 

Danvers National in Game 1 of the Section 4 tournament. 

ANDOVER — In the first two 

games of the District 4 Tournament the 

Peabody West 12-year-old All-Stars had 

to battle from behind in the late innings. 

Friday night’s game against Billerica at 

Deyermond Park was no different. 

West trailed twice, but walked off 

with win,plating the winning run in the 

bottom of the sixth inning to win 7-6 

when Josh Scali (1-for-3) scored on a 

passed ball with two outs. 

“It looked like they had the chance to 

make a play there,” West manager Steve 

Porcella said of the game-winning run. 

“You have to go there and put your foot 

on the pedal and go for it.” 

“I just knew I had to take the chance 

because it was a tied game with two 

outs,” Scali said. 

West was led by Jayce Dooley (2- 

for-4, 3 RBI) who hit a 3-run homer and 

John Horgan (1-for-1, 2 RBI) who had 

a clutch 2-run double to tie the game in 

fifth. 

Anthony Herbert, who came in to relieve 

starter Nick Villano, pitched the 

final 1 1/3 innings, allowing no hits on 

two strikeouts while hitting one batter. 

“We hadn’t used Anthony much but he 

really came out there and did his job,” 

Porcella said. “He hit his spots, kept the 

hitters off balance and got the job done.” 

Trailing 3-0, West added a run in its 

half of the second when Thomas Fabbo 

drove in a run on a groundout with the 

bases loaded. 

In the third, a walk by Villano and an 

infield single by Scali set the table for 

Dooley, who blasted 3-run homer to give 

West its first lead of the game at 4-3. 

Billerica answered right back with 

three in the fourth to regain the lead, 6-4. 

With two outs and runners at second 

and third for West, Horgan’s 2-run 

double tied things up. 

“I’ve been struggling in those situations,” 

Horgan said. “I was pretty nervous 

but I tried to just breathe and not 

even think about it and it payed off.” 

Tied at 6-6 in the last inning, Scali 

reached on a walk and ended up on third 

on two passed balls before moved to 

second and third on passed balls before 

he sprinted home on another passed ball 

to seal West’s win. 

Woburn 9, West 8 

Despite jumping out to a five-run lead, 

West fell to Woburn in extra innings 

Thursday to fall to 1-1 in pool play. 

“It always hurts to lose but the kids 

keep coming back,” Peabody West manager 

Steve Porcella said. “Baseball is 

a game of plays, you have to make the 

little plays,” Porcella added. “We made a 

lot of little plays today but Woburn made 

a few more and that’s what it came down 

to.” 

Scali (2-for-4, 4 RBI) had two clutch 

bases-loaded doubles, both coming 

Villano, was intentionally walked. 

Dooley (2-for-4, RBI) and Fabbo (1- 

for-3, RBI) each added solo home runs. 

In the first, Dooley hit a solo shot for 

a 1-0 lead. 

Andy Bousquet led off the second with 

a single. An infield error and hit batter 

loaded the bases. Dooley reached on 

an outfield error with two runs coming 

home. Scali hit a 2-run, ground-rule 

double to extend the lead to 5-0. 

Woburn closed to 5-2 in the fifth. 

In the fourth, Fabbo added a solo home 

run to give West a 6-2 lead, but Woburn 

answered with three runs in the fifth to 

close to 6-5. 

Woburn added three more in the sixth 

to lead 8-6. 

Down to its final out, West rallied. A 

walk by Fabbo, single by Dooley and an 

intentional walk to Villano loaded the 

bases for Scali who laced another double 

to tie the game at 8-8. 

After two walks to start the seventh, 

Woburn plated the eventual winning run 

on a passed ball. 

Peabody 6, Danvers National 5 

It was a night of firsts for the Peabody 

West 12-year-old All Stars in the opening 

round of the District 4 Little League 

Tournament July 18. 

West played from behind for the first 

time all season. West trailed 5-3 going 

into the bottom of the sixth inning but 

rallied to score three runs to cap a comefrom-behind 

victory. 

Scali was the man of the hour. With 

Fabbo on second and Dooley at third, he 

ripped a single to bring home the tying 

and game-winning runs. 

But that’s not all Scali did. He 

smashed the first home run of his Little 

League career in the first. He also got the 

job done on the mound, coming on in relief 

to earn the win. 

“Josh has been rock solid, and that was 

the first home run he ever hit,” said Porcella. 

“His home run really sparked us. The kids 

had never been in a position of playing from 

behind but they never gave up.” 

With two outs in the first, Villano 

drilled a first pitch over the center field 

fence to make it 2-1. One pitch later, Scali 

ripped a fast ball over the left field fence. 

Danvers came back with three in the 

second to regain the lead, 4-3. Peabody 

contained the damage thanks to Dooley, 

who moved from the mound to center field 

and promptly threw out a runner at third. 

“The timing was unbelievable,” said 

Porcella. “Jayce had just gone to center 

field and he made a great throw.” 

Villano retired seven straight before 

being lifted for Scali in the fifth. 

After Danvers bumped its lead to 5-3 

in the top of the sixth, Peabody went to 

work. 

With one out, Jacob Behn and Fabbo 

(2-for-3, 2 runs) hit back-to-back singles. 

Dooley (2-for-4, RBI, run) brought Behn 

home with a single, then Villano (2- 

for-2) was intentionally walked (for the 

second time) to load the bases for Scali 

(2-for-4, 3 RBI), who ripped a single to 

bring home Fabbo with the tying run and 

Dooley with the game-winner. 

“We held our breath in the top of the 

sixth inning when it was looking pretty 

hairy, but we knew with the top of our 

order due up in the bottom of the inning 

that we could do some damage,” 

Porcella said. 

Porcella said a big factor in the game was 

West’s defense, especially Fabbo at short. 

“Thomas made some brilliant plays 

tonight to keep us in the game,” he said.
