The Panthers were back in the MIAA Division 1 state playoffs, a trip they have made each full season since 2019.

Catholic Memorial starts title defense with win over Cambridge Rindge & Latin

WEST ROXBURY — The Catholic Memorial Knights entered round one of the MIAA Division II state tournament with a couple of things on their mind. First, as the top-seed, the Knights are the clear favorites to win the D-II state championship for the third year in a row. Secondly, Catholic Memorial came into the postseason on a two-game losing streak, an anomaly when it comes to the John DiBiaso era in West Roxbury.

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.
