Cameron is a Rotary Club hero<br />
By SAM MinTon<br />
The city's Rotary Club has named Sharon Cameron<br />
as its local hero.<br />
This honor was given to Cameron as part of the Rotary<br />
District 7930’s “Celebration of Heroes” on Nov.<br />
11 at the Danversport Yacht Club. Each Rotary Club<br />
in the district was invited to nominate a hero, which in<br />
this case was someone who has made a difference in<br />
their community.<br />
Cameron was unanimously selected by the club for<br />
her undeniably tireless work and continuing efforts to<br />
keep the city safe for its residents, workers, and visitors<br />
during the COVID-19 pandemic.<br />
“I am honestly speechless," said Cameron. "This is<br />
such an incredible honor and I truly appreciate your<br />
recognizing our work during the pandemic. I view this<br />
recognition as rightfully belonging to my whole team,<br />
and we are so honored to have our work recognized.”<br />
Cameron has been in public health for 32 years. She<br />
was attracted to public health because of the variety of<br />
ways public health is part of people’s lives.<br />
“Our team at the Peabody Health Department has<br />
worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic and I am<br />
extremely proud of their professionalism, knowledge,<br />
and compassion,” she added.<br />
The Rotary District 7930’s Celebration of Heroes<br />
benefits the Rotary Foundation, which in turn funds the<br />
charitable acts of the organization locally, throughout<br />
the country, and across the globe.<br />
Newbury Street developers to<br />
wait out ZBA’s safe harbor<br />
By AlenA KuzuB<br />
A developer at 128 Newbury St. intends<br />
to continue engaging with the<br />
abutters despite the Zoning Board of<br />
Appeals’ decision to assert a “safe<br />
harbor” stipulation and deny a Chapter<br />
40B comprehensive permit on Nov. 1.<br />
“We are willing to try to walk through<br />
other aspects of an approval process<br />
and to continue to meet with neighbors<br />
so that, when we feel our application<br />
would be reconsidered, we would be in<br />
a position to have completed much of<br />
that review,” said local Attorney John<br />
Kielty, who represents the developer<br />
Trammell Crow Company, and its subsidiary<br />
Maple Multi-Family Land SE,<br />

YMCA<br />
half-marathon<br />
is on Nov. 20<br />
By Anne MArie ToBin<br />
The annual Torigian Family Livestrong<br />
at the Y half marathon and 5K road race<br />
will be held on Saturday, Nov. 20.<br />
Race proceeds are dedicated to<br />
Livestrong, a Y program for cancer<br />
survivors.<br />
“This test of running endurance is perfect<br />
for experienced runners and those<br />
looking to complete their first half marathon,”<br />
said YMCA of Metro North Senior<br />
Director of Marketing Sandy St. Louis.<br />
St. Louis said the 5K race has been added<br />
for “runners and walkers looking to enjoy<br />
a fun morning and help support cancer<br />
survivors in our 12-week Livestrong<br />
program.”<br />
The Livestrong program focuses on<br />
physical activity and social connections<br />
that have been proven to help decrease<br />
fatigue after cancer treatment, as well as<br />
increase energy and overall quality of life.<br />
Survivors participate in free, customized<br />
exercise regimens prepared by certified<br />
fitness instructors that cater to survivors’<br />
individual needs.<br />
“Our instructors are trained in cancer<br />
survivorship, post-rehabilitation exercise,<br />
and supportive cancer care,” St. Louis<br />
said, adding that survivors and their families<br />
receive a membership at the YMCA<br />

Winona Street and Route 1 that<br />
had been cleared of vegetation and<br />
stood empty for 15 years.<br />
The developer proposed to<br />
build three four-story buildings<br />
clustered near the back of the lot<br />
with 220 studio, one-, two-, and<br />
three-bedroom units. Amenities<br />
would include recreation space,<br />
public workstations with Wi-Fi, an<br />
outdoor pool and grill stations, fitness<br />
center, clubhouse lounges and<br />
meeting spaces, gaming areas, and<br />
wet bars. The project is estimated<br />
to cost $65 million.<br />
Kielty represented the developer<br />
at the ZBA meeting on Nov. 1. He<br />
said that they have been working<br />
with the Engineering Department<br />
of the city, have filed an inquiry<br />
with the Conservation Commission<br />
to determine whether they have<br />
any jurisdiction over the parcel,<br />
and have submitted a Request for<br />
Determination of Applicability<br />
which determines whether the<br />
Wetlands Protection Act applies to<br />
a proposed site.<br />
Kielty also said that they have<br />
been engaged with abutters for<br />
months, in particular with neighbors<br />
from Cardigan Road, whom<br />
they notified about the filings and<br />
the ZBA meeting. Kielty expected<br />
that during the meeting the developer<br />
and ZBA would schedule further<br />
peer-review sessions. The developers<br />
said they were willing to<br />
accommodate the ZBA schedule,<br />
recognizing the upcoming holiday<br />
season.<br />
However, the discussion of the<br />
project did not take a long time.<br />
Daniel Sencabaugh, ZBA’s secretary,<br />
said that Peabody has already<br />
met a requirement of 10 percent<br />
affordable housing units, including<br />
subsidized-housing inventory,<br />
according to a letter dated April<br />
29, 2021 from the Department<br />
of Housing and Community<br />
Development to Mayor Edward<br />
A. Bettencourt Jr., about the city’s<br />
Housing Production Plan for<br />
March 2021-March 2022.<br />
Sencabaugh made a motion to<br />
assert “safe harbor”, a tool that allows<br />
ZBAs to deny a comprehensive<br />
permit if the statutory minima<br />
for affordable housing has been<br />
met. The board voted unanimously<br />
to support the motion.<br />
In case of safe harbor, according<br />
to the law, the Housing Appeals<br />
Committee cannot overturn the<br />
ZBA’s decision.<br />
Sencabaugh told the Weekly<br />
News that he was not interested in<br />
providing any further commentary<br />
about the decision.<br />
Because of the current single-family<br />
zoning for the premises,<br />
the developer needs to be utilizing<br />
Chapter 40B to be able to propose<br />
a project of a greater density, said<br />
Kielty. If they were to try to turn<br />
this project into 100 percent market-rate<br />
units, they would need<br />
to apply for a zone change. At<br />
this point, Trammell Crow has<br />
not pursued that, Kielty said. The<br />
company would not be interested<br />
in building single-family homes at<br />
128 Newbury St. because it is not<br />
the focus of their business.<br />
Over a period of months, Kielty<br />
said, the developer has demonstrated<br />
its willingness to accommodate<br />
abutters’ suggestions by<br />
reducing the number of units in the<br />
project, moving buildings further<br />
away from property lines toward<br />
Route 1, increasing the density of<br />
the landscaping on bordering areas,<br />
and discussing road access.<br />
“My client, Trammell Crow,<br />
has a national reputation of doing<br />
what they said they would do in a<br />
manner they suggested they would<br />
do it. They have worked hard to be<br />
aware of the concern of neighbors,”<br />
Kielty said. “We’ve found that the<br />
neighbors have been responsive to<br />
our desire to meet with them and<br />
have been forthcoming with questions,<br />
inquiries, and suggestions<br />
about access, fire access, et cetera.”<br />
He said that they’ve seen the<br />
impact of unfettered runoff from<br />
the property and they have a plan<br />
for drainage that will need to be<br />
reviewed by the Department of<br />
Public Services and whomever the<br />
neighbors would choose for a peer<br />
review.<br />
Ward 5 Councilor Joel Saslaw,<br />
who organized meetings between<br />
the developer and the community<br />
in the past, said that many abutters<br />
and surrounding neighbors would<br />
like to see the site developed after<br />
it’s been in shambles for close to<br />
two decades. Although some abutters<br />
on Cardigan Road are not 100<br />
percent in favor, they understand<br />
that this developer has really tried<br />
to work with them, Saslaw said.<br />
One of the main achievements of<br />
the negotiations with the developer<br />
was the modifications to the access<br />
to Winona Street. There won’t be<br />
a Winona Street entrance or exit at<br />
all, Saslaw said.<br />
“I think it is a good project,” said<br />
Saslaw. “The developer has been<br />
totally transparent both with the<br />
city and with the neighbors.”<br />

half-marathon/<br />
Library hosts Poe-themed ballet<br />
By HannaH CHadwiCk<br />
The Peabody Institute Library<br />
held a screening of the<br />
New England Ballet Theatre<br />
on Monday where they showed<br />
their performance The Myth and<br />
Madness of Edgar Allen Poe via<br />
projection in the Sutton Room.<br />
One of the performance directors,<br />
who was also a lead<br />
dancer in the ballet, was at the<br />
Library to answer questions<br />
and introduce the performance.<br />
The performance was virtually<br />
due to COVID-19 guidelines in<br />
place and was free and open to<br />
the public.<br />
“I’ve been in touch with New<br />
England Ballet Theatre almost<br />
since they started as a company,"<br />
said Senior Adult Service and<br />
Public Programming Librarian<br />
Gabriela Toth. "They performed<br />
across the street at the Black<br />
Box Theatre. I saw the flyer and<br />
I had just been wanting to bring<br />
dance to the library since I started<br />
here."<br />
The show that was shown<br />
at PIL was choreographed by<br />
Christopher Fleming. Fleming<br />
was a member of the New York<br />
City Ballet, where he danced<br />
principal roles in performances<br />
and has toured internationally.<br />
Fleming's choreography career<br />
has received a fellowship from<br />
the National Choreographic Institute<br />
under the direction of Barbara<br />
Weissburgerm, the founder<br />
of the Pennsylvania Ballet.<br />
The New England Ballet<br />
Theatre is mainly located in<br />
Hartford, Connecticut, but travels<br />
to many theatres in the region<br />
for performances.<br />
Fleming's show, The Myth<br />
and Madness of Edgar Allen<br />
Poe, tells the story of famous<br />
writer Edgar Allen Poe and his<br />
descent into madness and expounds<br />
upon the death and desertion<br />
within Poe’s biography.<br />
Poe was abandoned by his father<br />
and disowned by his foster<br />
father, which resulted in relying<br />
on the women in his life.<br />
Disease was a common<br />
theme in Poe's life, and it took<br />
the many lives of people he<br />
cared about. With these deaths,<br />
Poe’s mind became twisted and<br />
full of demons. This was shown<br />
in many of Poe’s writings, leaving<br />
readers the imagination of<br />
what darkness was in his mind.<br />
Fleming's aim was to transport<br />
his life from the pages to the ballet<br />
stage.<br />
This event was sponsored by<br />
The Peabody Institute Library<br />
Foundation and the McCarthy<br />
Family Foundation. The Mc-<br />
Carthy Family Foundation was<br />
established in 1956 and focuses<br />
on the arts, education, food,<br />
health, and housing and shelter<br />
programs.<br />
For those who missed out<br />
on this event, the virtual performance<br />
is available to watch until<br />
Nov. 14 at 11:59 p.m. Tickets<br />
can be purchased on the New<br />
England Ballet Theatre website<br />
for $45 and will have unlimited<br />
access to viewing until Nov. 14.<br />
The Peabody Library Institute<br />
Library will also be hosting<br />
many different events throughout<br />
the month of November.<br />

Housing stability new focus in the city<br />
By Anne MArie ToBin<br />
The North Shore HOME<br />
Consortium (NSHC), an organization<br />
of 30 local communities,<br />
will be holding four public<br />
meetings to seek suggestions for<br />
the best uses for new HOME<br />
funding that has been awarded<br />
through the American Rescue<br />
Plan Act.<br />
Peabody Community Development’s<br />
North Shore HOME<br />
Consortium liaison Kevin Hurley<br />
said this year’s grant, which<br />
in prior years ranged between<br />
$2.2 to $2.3 million, has been increased<br />
to $7.4 million and will<br />
be used for homelessness assistance<br />
and support.<br />
“This is a new wrinkle this<br />
year, in that the grant will service<br />
homeless and formerly homeless<br />
people and those who are in unstable<br />
housing,” Hurley said.<br />
“It’s a little harder to do because<br />
you need a large variety of resources<br />
and there is that NIMBY<br />
(not in my backyard) element as<br />
well, but it’s great to see a substantial<br />
increase in funding.”<br />
The three in-person meetings<br />
will be held in Haverhill on<br />
Tuesday, Nov. 16 at 11 a.m. at<br />
The Haverhill Public Library’s<br />
Milhendler Room, 99 Main St.;<br />
in Peabody on Wednesday, Nov.<br />
17 at 12 p.m. at the Torigian Senior<br />
Center/ Peabody Council on<br />
Aging, 75R Central St.; and in<br />
Gloucester on Thursday, Nov. 18<br />
at 11 a.m. at the Sawyer Free Library,<br />
Friend Room, 2 Dale Ave.<br />
A Zoom meeting will be held on<br />
Thursday, Dec. 2.<br />
Following the conclusion<br />
of the community meetings, a<br />
draft plan will be created and<br />
made available for public comment<br />
through a series of public<br />
hearings that will be held to obtain<br />
feedback on the document.<br />
Comments from the public hearings<br />
will then be incorporated<br />
into a final draft of the plan,<br />
which will then be submitted to<br />
the U.S. Department of Housing<br />
and Urban Development<br />
(HUD); the housing department<br />
has a 30-day comment period,<br />
Hurley said.<br />
“It will take some time to<br />
gather feedback and incorporate<br />
it into a draft and we also expect<br />
to have feedback via email and<br />
regular mail,” Hurley said, adding<br />
he hopes to have a final plan<br />
in place sometime in January.<br />
Under the plan, eligible recipients<br />
include homeless people;<br />
people at risk of homelessness;<br />
people fleeing or attempting<br />
to flee domestic violence, sexual<br />
assault, stalking or human<br />
trafficking; people for whom<br />
housing assistance or supportive<br />
services would prevent homelessness<br />
or who are at the greatest<br />
risk of housing instability;<br />
and homeless veterans and their<br />
families.<br />
Eligible uses include tenantbased<br />
rental assistance, the<br />
development and support of<br />
affordable housing, support services,<br />
and the development of<br />
non-congregate shelter, which<br />
may later be converted to permanent<br />
affordable housing and<br />
emergency shelter units.<br />
Peabody is the lead community,<br />
functioning as a liaison<br />
between HUD and the other 29<br />
member communities.<br />
Hurley said the program has<br />
been around for more than 25<br />
years. Funding in past years has<br />
been used to develop more housing<br />
opportunities. He said that<br />
since the program started, more<br />
than $50 million has been used<br />
to create new housing.<br />
Citizens, interested parties,<br />
representatives from the consortium’s<br />
communities, and<br />
nonprofit providers are urged to<br />
participate. Written comments<br />
are also encouraged, and may be<br />
submitted no later than Friday,<br />
Dec. 3 by mail to Lisa Greene,<br />
grants manager, NSHC, The Department<br />
of Community Development<br />
and Planning, City Hall,<br />

build a school by hand-making<br />
bricks and hauling them up a<br />

Fenwick blows<br />
out Maynard to<br />
open playoff run<br />
FOOTBALL FOOTBALL PLAYOFFS<br />
By Sam Minton<br />
PEABODY — The No. 3<br />
Bishop Fenwick football team<br />
took care of business against<br />
the No. 14 Maynard Tigers<br />
Friday night, advancing to the<br />
Division 5 quarterfinals with<br />
a 49-14 win at Donaldson<br />
Stadium.<br />
It was a banner night for senior<br />
quarterback Steven Woods<br />
and senior receiver Jason<br />
Romans. Woods completed 10<br />
of his 13 passes for more than<br />
250 yards and six touchdowns.<br />
Romans had a combined four<br />
touchdowns and more than 100<br />
yards receiving.<br />
Fenwick coach David Woods<br />
was pleased with the performances<br />
he got from his two<br />
seniors.<br />
“Jason (Romans) is a tough<br />
kid to cover,” he said. “He is<br />
a special athlete for sure and<br />
Steven (Woods) is having fun<br />
playing quarterback. He did<br />
throw a couple of perfect balls<br />
(tonight).”<br />
The Crusaders’ defense came<br />
to play as well, forcing a threeand-out<br />
on Maynard’s opening<br />
drive. Woods’ offense started<br />
the drive on its 44 with about<br />
10 minutes left in the opening<br />
quarter.<br />
Fenwick quickly moved<br />
down the field, driving 56 yards<br />
in less than two minutes. This<br />
was mostly done through the<br />
air, with Woods throwing for 36<br />
yards in the opening drive. The<br />
Crusaders’ success culminated<br />
in a six-yard touchdown pass to<br />
Romans, giving Fenwick a 7-0<br />
lead after a successful pointafter<br />
attempt from Romans.<br />
Fenwick’s defense continued<br />
to stonewall Maynard, forcing a<br />
punt with a little more than four<br />
minutes left in the first quarter.<br />

The Northeastern Conference<br />
has announced its 2021 girls<br />
soccer all-stars and awards, and<br />
first-year Peabody head coach<br />
Andrew Douglass took home<br />
some hardware after he was<br />
named NEC Co-Coach of the<br />
Year along with Masconomet’s<br />
Alison Lecesse.<br />
Douglass had a great first<br />
season with the Tanners, helping<br />
to lead the girls to a 7-5-4 record<br />
(6-5-2 in the NEC) and a No.<br />
The Crusaders blocked a punt<br />
and regained possession on<br />
their opponent’s 45-yard-line.<br />
Woods continued to dominate<br />
in the air, finding Mike<br />
Zaimi in the end zone from<br />
eight yards out. The senior<br />
quarterback ended the first<br />
half completing five of his six<br />
passes for 71 yards and two<br />
touchdowns. After another<br />
successful PAT from Romans,<br />
Fenwick had a 14-0 lead.<br />
The night continued to get<br />
worse for Maynard as it mishandled<br />
the ensuing kick return<br />
with the Crusaders gaining<br />
possession in the red zone with<br />
48 seconds left in the opening<br />
quarter. This time, the Tigers’<br />
defense stopped Fenwick dead<br />
in its tracks and forced a turnover<br />
on downs with 11 minutes<br />
left in the second quarter.<br />
Maynard came up empy on<br />
the ensuing drive, as senior<br />
quarterback Connor Capone<br />
was picked off by Luke<br />
Connolly, and the Crusaders<br />
taking over on their opponent’s<br />
43-yard-line.<br />
With 7:56 left in the half,<br />
Woods unleashed a 40-yard<br />
bomb to senior Chris Faraca,<br />
who scampered into the end<br />
zone. Romans turned a mishandled<br />
snap into a two-point<br />
conversion, giving Fenwick a<br />
22-0 lead.<br />
The Tigers took the ensuing<br />
kickoff to their 30-yard-line and<br />
finally wore down Fenwick’s<br />
defense with a drive that lasted<br />
more than six minutes, with<br />
Maynard marching 70 yards<br />
down the field. Capone kept the<br />
drive with a four-yard touchdown<br />
pass to Patrick Andrews.<br />
Abraao Alencar converted the<br />
PAT to shorten the deficit to<br />
22-7 with two minutes left in<br />
the second quarter.<br />
Fenwick started its next drive<br />
on the 30-yard-line but quickly<br />

Bishop Fenwick’s Chris Faraca had one touchdown reception in a win over Maynard Friday<br />
night in the Division 5 playoffs.<br />
found the end zone with Faraca<br />
maneuvering his way through<br />
the Tigers defense for a 74-yard<br />
touchdown catch. Another successful<br />
PAT gave the Crusaders<br />
a 29-7 lead, which they took<br />
into halftime.<br />
While Maynard head football<br />
coach Nick Pileeki described<br />
his offense as ground and<br />
pound, the team did quite well<br />
through the air.<br />
“He (Capone) gets better<br />
every week,” said the coach.<br />
“He is learning to read coverages<br />
a little bit better, but he<br />
is putting the ball for the most<br />
part in the right place.”<br />
Douglass named NEC girls soccer Co-Coach of the Year<br />
23 seed in the Division 1 state<br />
tournament.<br />
Taking home NEC Player of<br />
the Year honors was Danvers<br />
senior Arianna Bezanson,<br />
who also won the award the<br />
last time it was given in 2019.<br />
Bezanson had a stellar season<br />
for the Dunn Division champion<br />
Falcons, scoring 20 goals<br />
and adding nine assists. She<br />
was also named the Moynihan<br />
Lumber Student-Athlete of the<br />
Month for September.<br />
Bezanson also had two teammates<br />
join her on the NEC<br />
All-Conference Team in senior<br />
Gabby Chisholm and sophomore<br />
Georgia Prouty.<br />
The rest of the NEC All-<br />
Conference Team was made up<br />
of Peabody senior Emma Bloom,<br />
Peabody senior McKayla<br />
Fisher, Swampscott senior<br />
Maddie Hudson, Swampscott<br />
sophomore Victoria Quagrello,<br />
Marblehead senior Ella Kramer,<br />
Masconomet senior Elena<br />
Lindonen, Masconomet junior<br />
Taylor Bovardi, Beverly<br />
It didn’t take long for Woods<br />
and the Crusaders offense to<br />
get going in the second half as<br />
the senior quarterback threw<br />
a 65-yard touchdown pass to<br />
Romans on the first play on<br />
the opening drive of the third<br />
quarter. The PAT from Romans<br />
was good and Bishop Fenwick<br />
had a 36-7 lead with more than<br />
11 minutes left in the third<br />
quarter.<br />
With the Crusaders having a<br />
sizable lead, Troy Irizarry got a<br />
heavy dose of carries. Romans<br />
polished off the drive with<br />
a touchdown reception and<br />
converted the PAT to give the<br />
senior Kayleigh Crowell and<br />
Gloucester senior Darcy Muller.<br />
The NEC All-Star Team was<br />
split between the two divisions,<br />
which were renamed the Dunn<br />
Division and Lynch Division<br />
earlier this year.<br />
The Dunn Division All-Stars<br />
included Emily McDonough and<br />
Samantha Simmons (Peabody);<br />
Sophie DiGrande and Lilian<br />
Gosselin (Swampscott); Reese<br />
Pszenny, Eliana Anderson and<br />
Emily Goddard (Danvers);<br />
Lauren Boughner and Kendall<br />
Crusaders a 43-7 lead with just<br />
over four minutes left in the<br />
quarter. Romans kept Fenwick<br />
scoring with a pick-six to give<br />
Bishop Fenwick a 49-7 lead.<br />
Maynard made the scoreline<br />
look a little better as Capone<br />
threw a 23-yard touchdown<br />
pass to Mateo Arellano with<br />
four minutes left in the game.<br />
Alencar converted the PAT to<br />
make it a 49-14 final.<br />
Bishop Fenwick (7-2) will<br />
take on No. 11 Hudson in the<br />
Division 5 quarterfinal round<br />
next Friday.<br />
Skulley (Masconomet); and<br />
Claire Brean (Beverly).<br />
On the other side, the<br />

Peabody sets<br />
records in big win<br />
over Wakefield<br />
FOOTBALL<br />
By Mike Alongi<br />
WAKEFIELD — The<br />
Peabody football team must<br />
have been harboring some<br />
anger after not making it into<br />
the MIAA state playoffs, and<br />
the Tanners took it out on<br />
Wakefield Friday night on the<br />
road with a 42-19 win over<br />
the Warriors in a non-playoff<br />
game.<br />
“It was really just a wellplayed<br />
game for us in all three<br />
phases,” said Peabody coach<br />
Mark Bettencourt. “Wakefield<br />
came out and really tried to<br />
stop the run against us, and that<br />
opened up a lot of opportunities<br />
in the passing game that we<br />
took advantage of.”<br />
It was a record-setting night<br />
on multiple fronts, as quarterback<br />
Shea Lynch continued<br />
possibly the best season in<br />
Peabody quarterback history<br />
by completing 22-of-26 passes<br />
for 373 yards and four touchdowns.<br />
Lynch has already set<br />
Tanner new records for passing<br />
yards and passing touchdowns<br />
in a single season.<br />
But all you really need to<br />
know is that Bettencourt sees<br />
the junior in the same light<br />
as Peabody greats like Doug<br />
Santos, Jake Doherty and Eric<br />
DeMayo in terms of his leadership,<br />
work ethic and sheer<br />
ability on the football field.<br />
“It’s not very often that you<br />
get a player of Shea’s caliber,”<br />
said Bettencourt. “He’s the<br />
hardest worker out there every<br />
day in practice, and he’s a true<br />
leader in every sense of the<br />
word. His work ethic is through<br />
the roof, he knows the offense<br />
like the back of his hand, and<br />
he’s really taken a huge step<br />
forward this year.”<br />
Lynch’s receivers benefitted<br />
big-time Friday night, with Eli<br />
Batista leading the way after<br />
notching 162 receiving yards<br />
and three touchdowns. He also<br />
added an interception on the<br />
defensive side -- his sixth of<br />
the season.<br />
Only a sophomore, Batista<br />
has exploded onto the scene for<br />
the Tanners by making an impact<br />
in all three phases of the<br />
game.<br />
“It’s kind of crazy that<br />
he’s only a sophomore,” said<br />
Bettencourt. “When we moved<br />
him to safety earlier this year,<br />
he really just found a home.<br />
Then when you add in his four<br />
or five touchdown receptions<br />
and his five or six interceptions,<br />
he’s truly been one of our<br />
most impactful players.”<br />
Senior Jovante Dailey added<br />
eight receptions for 131 yards,<br />
while junior Danny Barrett<br />
caught his program record-setting<br />
ninth touchdown reception<br />
of the season in the win. Senior<br />
linebacker Michael Perez also<br />
had a big game on the defensive<br />
side of the ball, while junior<br />
Colin Ridley returned a<br />
kick for a touchdown.<br />
Things couldn’t have gotten<br />
off to a better start for the<br />
Tanners, as Ridley took the<br />
opening kickoff 90 yards to the<br />

Kristina Cardello had 30 digs for Peabody in a win over Quincy in the Division 1 tournament<br />
Round of 32 last Thursday.<br />
Peabody outlasts Quincy in<br />
Division 1 Round of 32<br />
VOLLEYBALL PLAYOFFS<br />
By Mike Alongi<br />
PEABODY — In one of its<br />
most back-and-forth matches<br />
of the entire season, the No.<br />
15 Peabody volleyball team<br />
outlasted No. 19 Quincy by a<br />
score of 3-1 in the Division 1<br />
North tournament Round of 32<br />
Thursday evening at Peabody<br />
Veterans Memorial High<br />
School. The Tanners won by<br />
set scores of 25-21, 25-21, 22-<br />
25, 25-18.<br />
“It was a great match, and<br />
Quincy really played hard and<br />
pushed us the whole time,” said<br />
Peabody coach Lisa Keene,<br />
who was named NEC Coach<br />
of the Year earlier this week.<br />
“I’m just proud of the girls for<br />
how they continue to fight and<br />
how they really finished it off<br />
once they got the chance in that<br />
fourth set.”<br />
Isabel Bettencourt had a<br />
big game for the Tanners with<br />
13 kills and five aces, while<br />
Lauryn Mendonca notched a<br />
season-high six blocks. Sarah<br />
Broughton had 18 service<br />
points and six kills, while Abby<br />
Bettencourt had 26 assists and<br />
four kills. Kristina Cardello<br />
had a massive game in the back<br />
with 30 digs, while Maddie<br />
Castro had a season-high six<br />
kills.<br />
“Everyone played so well and<br />
played their role so perfectly it<br />
was a great team effort,” said<br />
Keene. “Lauren was pumped<br />
up to play in a game like this<br />
and she really did well at the<br />
net, Bo (Isabel) did a great job<br />
in all facets, Abby was a great<br />
facilitator and Krissy had a<br />
great game on the back line.”<br />
The Tanners got off to a slow<br />
start in the opening set, falling<br />
behind an inspired Quincy<br />
squad 10-4 in the opening minutes.<br />
But Peabody eventually<br />
was able to right the ship, and<br />
the Tanners rallied all the way<br />
back to tie the score at 14-14.<br />
Peabody took the lead there<br />
and never gave it up, surviving<br />
a late Quincy rally to win the<br />
set 25-21.<br />
Peabody flipped the script<br />
on Quincy in the second set,<br />
sprinting out to an early lead<br />
before stretching that lead to<br />
14-4. Although Quincy battled<br />
all the way back to get within<br />
three, the Tanners were able to<br />
hold onto the lead and coast to<br />
the 25-21 victory.<br />
The Presidents got back<br />
on track a bit in the third set,<br />
keeping Peabody off balance<br />
for the majority of the frame.<br />
Quincy eventually stretched the<br />
lead to 18-11, and despite a late<br />
Tanners rally the Presidents<br />
were able to take the 25-22 set<br />
win to keep the match alive.<br />
The majority of the fourth<br />
set was a back-and-forth affair,<br />
with nine ties and 10 lead<br />
changes throughout. But, with<br />
the score tied 16-16, Peabody<br />
went on a run at the perfect<br />
time and outscored Quincy<br />
9-2 to win the set and take the<br />
match.<br />
Peabody (16-4) now moves<br />
on to the Div. 1 Round of 16,<br />
where the Tanners will face<br />
off against either No. 3 North<br />
Andover or No. 30 Taunton at a<br />
date and time to be determined.<br />
“It’ll be a tough battle either<br />
way, but we face North<br />
Andover in the first game of the<br />
season and we’ve grown a lot<br />
since then,” said Keene. “I’m<br />
sure they’ve grown up a lot too<br />
and I’m sure it’s going to be a<br />
great game no matter who we<br />
go up against. We just need to<br />
play a game and continue to<br />
work together.”
