A pair of Peabody girls senior soccer
captains are doing what they can to raise
awareness of the importance of mental
health.
Amber Kiricoples and Aja Alimonti are
the brains behind Veterans Memorial High
School’s Mental Health America (MHA)
Peabody Go Green Week.
The campaign kicked off last Saturday
on World Mental Health Day with an aggressive
social media blitz.
“We are going to flood Twitter and
Facebook and Instagram with tons of
photos and graphics with green ribbons,
which is the color for mental health,” said
Kiricoples. “I feel like I am seeing, every

Developer promises housing for locals
By Anne Marie Tobin
A developer of a controversial
affordable housing
project on the site of the former
J.B. Thomas Hospital and
Curahealth Boston North Shore
on King Street has announced
that 70 percent of the project’s
affordable units will be reserved
for Peabody residents.
HDG King LLC (HDG), the
owner of 15 King Street, also
pledged to continue reaching
out to the community following
the first public hearing before
the Zoning Board of Appeals
(ZBA) on Oct. 5.
The project, which is located
in a neighborhood zoned for
single- and two-family homes,
calls for the construction of 133
units.
In April, the developer received
40B site approval
for its plans to build King’s
Residences, a 133-unit development
(with one to three
bedrooms) on the 3.2 acre site,
with 34 units being designated
as affordable. HDG next filed
a 40B application, which will
allow it to bypass local zoning
and planning regulations provided
a minimum of 20 percent
of the proposed units is affordable.
The reason the developer
can use 40B is because Peabody
does not meet the 10 percent
threshold of affordable housing
in the city.
Since HDG purchased the
property in December 2017

any attempts to develop the site
have been met with fierce opposition
from area residents and
city leaders, who cite a variety
of concerns including increased
traffic, inadequate parking and
an unwelcome burden on the
school system.
“This project doesn’t add
anything but problems to the
city,” Hochman said. “We
wanted a project that doesn’t

but problems.It’s already a congested
neighborhood and with
the Endicott 40B down the road,
it’s going to be even worse.”
HDG attorney, Jason Panos
of the Peabody-based law firm
of The Panos Law Group, presented
the developer’s proposal
at the Oct. 5 hearing.
In a statement released the
next day, he said HDG wants
“to make it very clear that a lot
of thought has gone into this
project, and we want to ensure
residents that what we are offering
is a quality project that
will bring jobs, revenue and an
affordable place to live all here
in Peabody.”
Panos went on to state that
most of the affordable units “will
be available to teachers, nurses,
police officers, firefighters and
other front line workers along
with folks who grew up here.”
The statement went on to
say that the project will allow
“Peabody to add units to its
affordable housing stock.
Peabody residents will have
more opportunity to stay in
Peabody, shop in Peabody and
be active in the area.”
The ZBA continued the
hearing to Nov. 9.
“We want to hear from residents
and hear their questions
and constructive comments at
the next hearing so that we can
create the best possible development,”
said Panos, adding
that residents are encouraged to
email their questions to info@
kingsresidencespeabody.com.
Councilor-at-Large Anne
Manning Martin said she has
reached out to ZBA members
to share her concerns about the
project and has confidence the
board will make sure residents’
best interests are served.
“Although we have several
40B proposals in the works,
given the experience and independence
of our current ZBA
members, I feel confident that
this is the best place for these
matters to be hashed out,” said
Martin. “40B laws exist to
provide much-needed affordable
housing and are not to be
abused by greedy developers to
threaten neighborhoods.
“The ZBA is an autonomous
nonpartisan board that has
the authority to deny projects
outright or put conditions and
restrictions on them that will
make them manageable should
the board deem the proposal to
be in everyone’s best interest.
I’ve reached out to the ZBA
members with my concerns and
suggest to residents they do the
same; they will be heard.”

4
day, stories detailing multiple
pieces of evidence and research
showing that mental health is
getting worse due to isolation,
fear about COVID-19, fear
about losing jobs, and there is
a rising trend in depression and
substance abuse.
“That’s why we felt we need
to do something to help, because
we feel these things, too.”
Starting Tuesday with the
girls soccer team’s home opener
against Swampscott and concluding
Saturday with the cross
country team’s meet against
Marblehead, five Tanner teams
will come together and do their
best to heighten awareness of
mental illness by accessorizing
their uniforms with all things
green, a color symbolizing the
positive impact that exposure
to green space has on children’s
mental health and well-being.
From green headbands and
pre-wrap to socks adorned with
green tape and captains wearing
green captains’ armbands on
their arms, Peabody athletes
will be trading their Tanner
trademark blue for green.

Even a couple of traditional

are supporting the cause.
“Everyone all week will be
wearing something green, even
Danvers and Beverly, that’s the
plan,” Kiricoples said. “My
family, like so many others,
have struggled with issues like
depression and other mental
illnesses. Aja has seen how this
has impacted me and has seen
it all first-hand, so she came up
with the idea to make it a DECA
(Distributive Education Clubs
of America) project, knowing
how important the issue is, not
just for me, but for everyone.”
Kiricoples is hopeful people
will share their photos and stories
on social media, which she
believes will help young people
open up about their struggles.

was a no-brainer, considering

Health Day.
“We were sitting in Mr. (Lenny)
Brand’s DECA class and it just
dawned on us that this would be
a perfect way to do something
Saturday to reach out to people
our age who are struggling,”
Alimonti said. “We need people to
hear others’ stories so they know
that someone can always be there
for you if we knew these people
cannot escape their own minds.”
Brand, who is co-advisor of
DECA with Courtney Zecha,
believes there are multiple
benefits to be gained from Go
Green Week.
“It’s a powerful subject and
DECA projects always boost
confidence and self-esteem,” he
said. “It takes a lot of courage to
post stories like this and I feel that
this will impact not just Peabody,
but other communities. Aja and
Amber are special people, two
real go-getters, and I feel that
goes far beyond just students.”
Alimonti said the original
plan was to dedicate a single
day to the cause, but expanded
it to a week after reaching out to
Athletic Director Bob Bua.
“He said it was a great idea
and knowing the week had all
home games, encouraged us
to dedicate a whole week,”
Alimonti said. “We thought
last spring that we’d be out
of school for just a couple of
weeks and losing sports was
really hard. Sports is what gets
you out of bed to go to school
and do what you love. We protested
all summer to get a fall
sports season as we needed
some type of normalcy, not just
for the game, but to feel good
about yourself.”
Peabody has had a tremendous
history of success at
DECA, reaching nationals
every year but one over the last
18 years, according to Brand.
While Alimonti is hopeful to
return to nationals in Anaheim
in 2021, her focus is on doing
what she can to help others.
“Amber and I will put everything
into our project so hopefully
we can go far, but the reality
is that’s not as important
when you consider how many
people need help,” she said. “If
we can help just one person,
I’d trade that in any day. All we
care about is putting smiles on
faces.”

Welch School plan is taking shape
By Anne Marie Tobin
The improvement plans for
the Welch Elementary School
are beginning to take shape.
Representatives from project
manager Dore & Whittier
Management Partners and the
architectural firm DiNisco
Design, Inc. appeared before
the Welch School Building
Committee last week to present
an updated progress report.
“When we last left off there
was a good amount of work at
the site still underway and we
wanted to give you an update,”
said DiNisco Design’s Jeff
Oxsalida.
Oxsalida said that the site
survey field work has been
completed and that the geotechnical
engineer has also
been to the site and completed
their field work, which consisted
primarily of broings
and test pits. Wetlands and
riverfront boundaries have
been determined and flagged.
Environmental specialists
have completed their investigation
and sample-taking and
have completed their survey
for asbestos, lead paint and
other hazardous materials inside
and outside the building.
Oxsalida said Phase 1 of the
environmental site assessment
has also been completed.
Ongoing work includes site
survey drafting, final analysis
of the geotechnical lab results
and the final report, as well as
the final compilation of an existing-conditions
report.
The next steps include finalizing
project priorities and
design goals, examination
of the educational program
within the existing structure,
and final determination of
construction phases and swing
spaces.
DiNisco identified four priorities:
repairing deficiencies in
building systems, building-code
compliance, Massachusetts
Architectural Access Board
(MAAB) compliance and
overall project-design goals.
The presentation identified
building deficiencies and proposed
solutions, starting with
the HVAC systems, which
were found to have failing
equipment and control components
that provide partial
cooling only.
“These are primarily window
and residential units and one
rooftop unit only,” Oxsalida
said. “It’s pretty obvious that
the costs of this system are
prohibitive.”
DiNisco recommends a
complete replacement of
the system with a digitally-controlled,
energy-friendly
system that provides complete
cooling in all areas of the
building.
DiNisco also found that the
exterior doors and windows
showed “significant deterioration
to glazing” and were inefficient
and recommended they
be replaced with windows and
doors that have thermal breaks
and insulated glass.
The electrical system is also
subpar with failing components,
including clocks and
the public-address system,
zero spare capacity, inefficient
manually-operated lighting
and an undersized generator.
DiNisco’s solution is replacement
of the entire system,
including a new emergency
generator, new panels, new
voice and data infrastructure,
and new LED lighting and
controls.
Oxsalida estimates that, to
fully comply with building
codes, a new sprinkler
system at a projected cost
of $1.41 million is required.
In terms of MAAB compliance,
Oxsalida estimates expenses
of about $1.29 million
will be required in the form
of bathroom upgrades, new
door hardware, elevator upgrades,
installation of a lift or
ramp to the stage, new classroom
sinks and counters, and
stair handrail and guardrail
modifications.
Several design goals to support
education were identified,
including improved student
and teacher storage and replacement
of markerboards,
tackboards, sound systems,
athletic equipment, flooring
(gym and cafeteria) and stage
lighting. DiNisco also recommends
reconfiguration of select
spaces to better serve the
community; capture under-utilized
space to enhance educational
programs; creation of
space for outdoor learning;
and other interior and exterior
improvements to extend the
life of the building.
Dore & Whittier partner
Mike Burton said “the next
big milestone” is the submission
of a preliminary design
program to the Massachusetts
School Building Authority on
Nov. 23.
“That’s the list of initial
options, including minor
and major renovations, add
renos and new,” Burton said.
“Working-group discussions
will get a little more frequent
and we will be meeting with
DiNisco shortly. There is a lot
of activity that will take place in
the next six weeks.”
“I’m very excited about this
project and know that Dore
& Whittier and DiNisco are
going to do something fabulous
for us,” said Peabody
Mayor Ted Bettencourt, who
is also a member of the school
building committee. “I’m
still worried a little about the
numbers, obviously, and we
are still trying to figure out
our budget for the Welch and
other projects, but I’m also appreciative
to the committee for
keeping the project moving
forward.”
The committee’s next
meeting is Nov. 5 at 9:30 a.m.

South Peabody
spared cell tower
WEEKLYNEWS.NET - 978-532-5880 OCTOBER 15, 2020
BY ANNE MARIE TOBIN
A long six-year battle over
construction of a cell phone
town in a South Peabody residential
neighborhood is over.
The Peabody Municipal
Light Plant (PMLP) announced
Friday it had reached an agreement
with Verizon to install
wireless communication facilities
onto utility poles in
Peabody in lieu of construction
of a large-scale antenna previously
sought by Verizon.
PMLP Manager Charles J.
Orphanos said the agreement
provides for “about a dozen” facilities,
which will be installed
atop PMLP utility poles to mitigate
Verizon’s coverage gap,
adding that the installation will
be conducted by PMLP highvoltage
linemen as a condition
of the agreement.
Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt
said the agreement is “good
news all around for everyone.
“This is big news for South
Peabody and good news for
the city,” said Bettencourt. “We
knew it was coming and we
were very optimistic that it was
going to happen. It’s been a long
winding road, so I am extremely
happy as this is wonderful news
for South Peabody and the city
in general knowing that a large
pole in a family neighborhood
would be extremely destructive
to the quality of life there.
“I am very grateful to the
City Council and the Peabody
Municipal Light Plant for making
this happen. The agreement also
ensures that the neighborhood
will have improved coverage
in some areas that have pockets
with issues, so this will help on
so many levels. I am just grateful
that this area has been protected.”
The agreement is expected to
bring an end to a lawsuit brought
by Verizon against the city after
the City Council denied Verizon’s
request for a special permit. The
city recently filed an appeal to the
Supreme Judicial Court to review
its most recent setback. An appeals
court decision upheld a land
court ruling in favor of Verizon
just two weeks ago that found
the city’s denial of Verizon’s special
permit application to allow
construction of the tower at that
location was in violation of the
Federal Telecommunication Act.
Bettencourt said that appeal
will be withdrawn as a condition
of the agreement, but he
did not yet “know if Verizon
will be filing a motion to dismiss
the case.”
The agreement, in part, addresses
the 2018 Declarative
Order by the FCC, which
opened the door for communication
companies nationwide to
install wireless communication
facilities on utility poles within
the public rights of way.
PMLP Chairman Robert O.
Wheatley said, “As a result of
the Declarative Order, PMLP
needed to develop specifications
and a comprehensive plan that
governs how Verizon and other
carriers will use utility poles in
PMLP’s service area for the new
technology. The fees that PMLP
will collect from Verizon will
offset the costs associated with
the work that PMLP will do to
install the new equipment.”
“It’s a big win for everybody.
Any time you have a long negotiation,
isn’t everybody happy
when it’s over?” said Human
Resources and Community
Director John Maihos.
Orphanos said that negotiations
with Verizon for a settlement
agreement have been ongoing
since 2018, but PMLP was confident
a solution would be found.
“Literally, two Thursdays ago
when the Appeals Court ruled for
Verizon we were on the half-yard
line with a first-and-goal. We had
been massaging it for two years,
but nobody really knew how
close we were to getting it done.”

LYNNFIELD - Harold G. Janakas,
best known to his friends and family
as “Harry J,” passed away peacefully
with his girls by his side on October
9, 2020 after a courageous and
well fought battle with Alzheimer’s
dementia. He was 65 years old.
Born in Beverly on November
30, 1954 he was the son of the

Janakas.
Harry J was a longtime Lynnfield

co-owner of Norman Office Supply in
Gloucester before shifting gears and
turning to a career as an auditor for
the Defense Department and then
working as a procurement agent for
Hanscomb Air Force Base until his
retirement in 2014.
An avid New England sports fan,
Harry J could hardly be recognized
without wearing the baseball hat
of one of the local sports teams.
Though he supported all the local
franchises, the Bruins were his favorite;
as a hockey player himself
and beautiful skater, Bobby Orr
was Harry J’s hero. He also loved
to run and to hike, most especially
enjoying his numerous runs of the
Falmouth Road Race and climbs of
Mount Washington in New Hampshire.
A true outdoorsman, he loved
his yard, vegetable gardening, and
talking about the constellations
while stargazing. Above all, he enjoyed
spending time on his back
deck with family and friends and
listening to The Beatles, of which he
was a lifelong fan.

Sports
It’ll be a four-score for some area
By Mike Alongi
Due to unusual circumstances
that have turned into the norm
this year, student-athletes around
the North Shore have been
forced to adjust their schedules.
These changes have been
made to comply with the 2020-
2021 athletic calendar the
Massachusetts Interscholastic
Athletic Association (MIAA)
created due to the ongoing
COVID-19 pandemic. That
calendar created a new fourth
season for this year, “Fall Sports
II,”, and MIAA subsequently
passed a temporary rule allowing
student-athletes to play a
sport in all four seasons.
And the student-athletes have
taken advantage of it.
Bishop Fenwick stands on
top as the school with the most
four-sport athletes in the area,
with a total of five — all football
players — taking on a new
sport this fall. Steven Woods and
Jason Romans picked up their
clubs and made the golf team,
while Colby Browne, Jacob
Vargus and Troy Irizarry have
all decided to run cross country.
“Since football is the only
sport we’re not playing this fall,
the football players were really
the only ones who had an opportunity
to pick up another sport,”
said Dave Woods, who serves as
Fenwick’s athletic director and
head football coach. “We’re really
happy for the guys and glad
that they’ve decided to expand
their horizons and take advantage
of the opportunity. They’re
definitely turning what could be
a negative into a positive.”
“It’s pretty cool to become
a four-sport athlete, it kind of
puts a silver lining on having the
By Mike Alongi
PEABODY — Despite being
down five starters due to injury
Wednesday evening, the
Bishop Fenwick boys soccer
team stepped up to the challenge
and put together a scrappy 1-0
victory over non-conference foe
Central Catholic at Donaldson
Stadium. It was Jack Andrews
who scored the winning goal for
the Crusaders, scoring on an impressive
back-heel kick with just
two minutes to play in the game.
“It was an incredibly exciting
game and it was a hard-fought
win,” said Fenwick coach Tony
Enos. “Missing five starters is a
tough thing to overcome, and to
athletes this academic year
football season postponed,” said
Steven Woods, Dave’s son, who
also plays basketball in addition
to running outdoor track in the
spring. “I always said that if golf
was in a different season I would
have played it every year, so it’s
really cool to be able to get out
there and compete for the first
time.”
“I’ve always looked up to
multi-sport college athletes, and
I figured this would be a really
cool opportunity to expand my
horizons and see how good I
was at running cross country,”
said Vargus, who also suits up in
football, wrestling and lacrosse
for the Crusaders. “It was extremely
tough at first because I
could barely run a mile, but now
I’m running a 5K in under 22
minutes so I’ve been making a
lot of progress.”
For Irizarry, who initially
planned to focus on developing
in football this fall before deciding
to run cross country, the
changes he discovered his new
sport were a bit stark.
“It was a totally different feel
running cross country because in
the sports I play I’m used to quick
bursts of running and sprinting,
not extended running,” said
Irizarry, who has played football
and basketball for Fenwick
and was planning on playing his
first year of lacrosse last spring
before the season was canceled.
“But things have been going a lot
smoother lately and I actually just
broke my first personal record
last week. It’s been really fun
starting up a new sport, and it’s
a great start to what should be an
exciting year of sports for me.”
St. Mary’s also has a four-sport
athlete this year in sophomore
Jackson Field. Having already
have five freshmen step in and
pick up the slack is a big ask
from me. But the guys really
came through and played well to
get us the win.”
A number of players stepped
up to deliver the victory for
Fenwick, including Andrews,
goalkeeper Liam Foley, Aidan
Dwyer, Tyler Mullen and Ryan
Noci.
“We had so many guys step
into critical positions and make
plays for us,” said Enos. “To see
those guys step up and play the
kinds of games they played, it
was special to watch.”
The game was a scoreless
draw for 78 minutes of game

played football, basketball and
lacrosse as a freshman at St.
Mary’s, Field — whose father
Josh is the boys lacrosse coach
for the Spartans — jumped at the
chance to play golf this fall after
the football season was pushed to
“Fall Sports II.”
“I’ve been playing golf for a
long time now and I’ve really
been looking forward to a chance
to get out there and compete
since we heard there wouldn’t be
any football this fall,” said Field.
When asked out how he’ll
juggle all the responsibilities that
come with being a four-sport
athlete, Field doesn’t seem too
worried.
“I’ve been busy with sports
my whole life, so this really isn’t
anything new,” Field said. “I just
have to take it one sport at a time
and try to be the best I can be
time, until Fenwick earned an
indirect kick in the offensive
zone with two minutes left.
Due to the new rules that deem
corner kicks illegal unless the
ball is first kicked across the
ground, the ball found a few
Fenwick feet before the ball was
launched into the box. Andrews,
in a moment of great awareness,
got his body in position and redirected
the ball off the back of
his heel and into the net for the
game-winning goal.
“It was just a great piece of
awareness by Jack and he really
capitalized,” said Enos.
“That’s something we’ve been
practicing in terms of how to
each day no matter what and just
have fun with it.”
St. Mary’s athletic director Jeff
Newhall is glad that players like
Field get to expand their horizons
by getting out and playing a new
sport.
“I’m a firm believer that kids
should be playing multiple
sports,” said Newhall. “With the
current situation we’re in, I think
this presents a unique opportunity
to not only play in four different
seasons, but in most cases to try
something that they haven’t competed
in before.”
Elsewhere around the North
Shore, other student-athletes are
joining in on the fun.
Lynnfield’s Ava Buonfiglio
decided to take up cross country
once the volleyball season was
delayed to “Fall Sports II,” and
she’ll also play basketball and
play these indirect kicks, and
we really cashed in on that
opportunity.”

PEABODY -- Behind a strong
defensive effort Wednesday
night, the Bishop Fenwick girls
soccer team earned a 2-1 victory
over Central Catholic in
a non-conference matchup at
Donaldson Stadium.
“We came out strong and
we were playing well from the
start,” said Fenwick coach Steve
Flaherty. “We gave up one goal
from a lapse in judgement on the
field but for the most part we
played a really solid game out
there.”
tennis this year.
“Coming into high school I
had a few different options about
what to play, whether it was volleyball
or cross country or whatever,
so it’s been really exciting
to get to experience something
new this fall,” said Buonfiglio.
“It’s honestly harder for me to
go day to day and have nothing
to do than it is for me to juggle
all these sports at the same time,
so it’s really like second nature to
me at this point.”
And this likely won’t be the
end of players deciding to play a
fourth sport this year. Come the
end of February -- when football
and volleyball are slated to start
in the “Fall Sports II” season
— there could be a number of
players who decide to pick up
the pads or get out on the court
for the first time.
Bishop Fenwick boys and girls soccer notch big victories
Katie Dunn had one goal and
one assist for the Crusaders,
while Molly Jenkins scored one
goal and Isabella DelVecchio
had one assist. Lea Bettencourt
played well on the defensive end
and goalkeeper Claudia Keith
was stout in net all game long.
“We had contributions at
all levels (Wednesday),” said
Flaherty. “We got some strong
possessions on offense, we
were solid in the midfield and
we played really well on the
back end. Our goaltending was
also solid and so was our decision-making
outside of the one
bad play where we let up that
goal.”

SALEM — The Peabody
girls soccer team opened the
season with a bang Thursday afternoon,
notching a shutout win
over Northeastern Conference
foe Salem, 6-0, on the road at
McGrath Park.
“First of all, just to be able to
get out here and compete as a
team is great and we’re all very
excited about it,” said Peabody
coach Dennis Desroches.
“We’re obviously a little nervous
because it kind of feels
like any game could be your
last, but we’re happy to be out
here and we’re embracing the
opportunity.”
Amber Kiricoples and
McKayla Fisher led the way for
the Peabody offense, scoring
two goals apiece in the win.
Emily McDonough and Hailey
Baker each scored one goal,
while Hailee Lomasney and
Aja Alimonti each had two assists.
Maddy Scacchi, Megan
Billingsley, Logan Lomasney
and Jordyn Collins also played
well in the victory, while Emma
Bloom and Madison Murphy
split time in goal to earn the
shutout.
“We’ve got a good mix of

some freshmen and sophomores
who are getting some playing

nice to see us come together and
play well in our first game.”
Peabody came out with force
on the offensive end, dominating
time of possession early
and getting a number of scoring
opportunities. The Tanners
got things started early when
Kiricoples netted her first of
the game just four minutes into
the game, then Fisher added her
first of the game a few minutes
later. With a 2-0 lead, Peabody
was off and running.
“We wanted to get on top
early so we could play our style
of game and control the pace,”
said Desroches. “It was really
nice to take control early.”
From there, the Tanners continued
to tack onto the lead.
Baker scored in the second
quarter to make it 3-0 at the
half, then Kiricoples and Fisher
scored goals to push the lead to
5-0. After one last tally from
McDonough, Peabody was able
to cruise to victory.
Despite the strong performance,
the Tanners still found
themselves stumbling over a
few of the new rules put in place
this season due to COVID-19.
“It’s an adjustment period for
sure,” said Desroches. “A lot of
the restrictions go against the
players’ instincts, so it’s tough
to get used to. But everyone has
to deal with it and we’ll continue
to work on it in practice.”

Kyle Joyce paces Peabody
in season-opening win
By Mike Alongi
PEABODY — Kyle Joyce
didn’t waste any time in the
opening game of the season
Friday, scoring four goals to
help lift the Peabody boys
soccer team to a 7-0 win over
Northeastern Conference foe
Salem at Peabody Veterans
Memorial High School.
“We played well and it was
a great way to start off the
season,” said Peabody coach
Stan McKeen. “We moved the
ball well, our defense played
well and it was an all-around
solid game.”
In addition to Joyce’s four
goals, Victor Maciel had two
goals and one assist and Pedro
Vieira scored one goal. Michael
Balke and Kyle Lobao each
had one assist in the win, while
goalie Joey Swanton earned the
shutout in net.
“Kyle had a big game and he’s
a great player,” said McKeen.
“We actually changed up our
formation to a 4-5-1 to leave
him up front alone because he
moves so well and he’s such a
smart player. Then you add guys

like Victor, Pedro and Ramon
(Falcao), and we’ve got a really
solid middle of the field.”
The Tanners came out and
scored right away, getting a
goal from Joyce on a rebound
less than two minutes into the
game. Joyce scored again about
10 minutes later to make it 2-0
Peabody, and he scored his hat
trick goal just before the half to
give the Tanners a 3-0 advantage
at the break.
Joyce started the second half
in similar fashion, scoring just
three minutes into the third
quarter to push the lead to 4-0.
Maciel added his first goal of the
game a few minutes later, then
Vieira scored to effectively put
the game out of reach. Maciel
rounded out the scoring with
a goal at the start of the fourth
quarter.
One thing that was apparent
as the Tanners took the field
for their first game was the
team’s discipline in terms of the
new safety modifications put
into place this year because of
COVID-19.
“We’ve been working a lot
on making sure we abide by
the new rules in practice,” said
McKeen. “We still saw a couple
of mistakes out there with guys
not thinking, but on the whole I
think the guys are doing a good
job out there so far. It’s tough for
a lot of these guys because at this
point in their lives it’s mostly instincts
out there, but we’ve done
a good job working around it to
this point.”
The Tanners are also employing
a first-year goalkeeper
this year in Swanton, a football
player who hasn’t played soccer
since his freshman year. With
inexperience in the net, McKeen
knows he will have to lean on
the strength of his team’s defense
a little more.
“We lost all of our goalies
to graduation, so we actually
have one goalie on the team this
year,” said McKeen. “I’ve got
seven defenders back there, and
they’re interchangeable back
there. We’re really going to be
depending on those guys, especially
(captain) Nick (Sablone)
because he’s a big communicator
on the back end.”
