Londonderry upset by sixth-seeded Concord

If he had to make the decision over again, Londonderry coach Wayne MacDougall still doesn't know what he would do.

Good luck charm helps Londonderry edge Central

Just like the Red Sox, Londonderry has its own good luck hawk that patrols the field at Lancer Park.

Londonderry win over Salem no small matter

Even though it was a milestone for him, Londonderry coach Wayne MacDougall tried to downplay yesterday's 4-2 victory over two-time defending Class L champion Salem.

Although it was his first win over Salem in 12 years as head coach, MacDougall stressed that "it's only April," and that it'd be much more important later in the season.

Ottaviani Haverhill Invitational Meet

Lawrence's KB Oshodi has been one of Central Catholic's best and brightest track stars. And he has the Raider football program to thank for it.

"In my freshman year, the football coaches wanted to get us to do track," Oshodi explained. "They said it would be good to try and do a lot of different stuff. In the triple jump, in my first year, I was doing better than the varsity guys. I did well and I just continued to improve."

The situation, however, was no laughing matter.
