Bridgewater-Raynham football shows its strength in D2 Round of 16 win

BRIDGEWATER— Throughout nearly the entire fall season, Bridgewater-Raynham football was locked in the No. 2 spot in the MIAA Division 2 Power Rankings , trailing only the division’s back-to-back champion Catholic Memorial . On Thursday, Nov. 5, in the MIAA Division 2 Round of 16 , the No. 2 Trojans (6-2, 2-0 Pioneer Athletic Conference) showed just why that’s the case. B-R cruised to a 48-7 win over No. 15 Waltham (3-6, 1-1 Dual County Foley), putting on full display its strength and versatility on all sides of the ball, as well as its plethora of scoring options, to book the program’s third straight state quarterfinals appearance . “I think it’s great to be adaptable, especially when it comes to winning football games,” Trojans coach Eian Bain said. “You’ve got to be able to do different things, and obviously a quality opponents they want to take away your strengths, so we had to adjust on the fly to make sure we could maximize our matchups.” B-R had touchdowns from three different quarterbacks, as junior Logan Bovill connected with senior wide receiver Logan Tripp for a 24-yard touchdown and pitched a short pass to junior wide receiver Gabe Ocampo for a

St. John’s (Shrewsbury) football cruises past Brockton in MIAA playoffs

SHREWSBURY -- There wasn't a better time or place for Aiden Dagnello to rumble into the end zone for his first career touchdown as a member of the St. John's Shrewsbury football team. The Pioneers put together a scoring party in the first round of the MIAA Division 1 state tournament, taking down Brockton 58-18 on Thursday, Nov. 5. St. John’s spoiled the playoff debut of first-year Brockton head coach Mike Norman Jr. despite a strong start that saw Brockton take an early lead in the first quarter. “We came out and threw the first punch, but we have to continue to ride that high and we haven’t done that,” said Norman Jr. “When you can’t, results like this happen." On the other side, Dagnello didn't just take part in the scoring party on Thursday. He was the life of it. St. John's (Shrewsbury) led Brockton 17-6 with just over seven minutes remaining in the second quarter when the 6-2, 295-pound defensive lineman tipped a pass from Brockton senior quarterback Marcio Semedo and tracked it in the air at the Boxer 40-yard line for an interception return touchdown. “I almost had one last week, but I dropped it,” Dagnello said.
