Shrewsbury girls hockey head coach Frank Panarelli was ecstatic when his program switched leagues to join the vaunted MVC/DCL Large in 2021, knowing how important the challenge was on its way to eventually winning its first Div. 1 state title a couple years later. It’s a similar excitement that Paul Hardy felt when Lincoln-Sudbury moved up from the Small division to join the loaded pack in 2023. That goes for Tommy McGrath, too, when Boston Latin made the same jump last year. It’s no secret how cutthroat the league is; it’s talked about far too much for it to be.…

The New England Patriots are heading into the offseason with their heads held high. Even though they did not come out on top in Super Bowl LX, there are a lot of reasons for optimism surrounding the team as they begin to prepare for the 2026 campaign. One of those reasons was the play of rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams. A third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Williams didn’t play a ton, but when he did find his way onto the field, he frequently found a way to flash his big-play abilities (10 REC, 209 YDS, 3 TD).

This is great news for Red Sox fans! Not just because it’s a chance to watch one of the team’s blossoming stars take the field on a national global stage, but also because it gives Anthony experience in this type of game.

The Warriors led from start to finish, delivering a balanced scoring attack that included nine different players. “Going into this season, we knew we had offense – but our coaches really emphasized defense,” said Brookline senior Nefeli Aga-Kitch (16 points, 10 rebounds, 4 steals), whose grit and tenacity was a trademark of Brookline’s success. “We’ve really worked on the little things in practice. Producing that on the court has been special.” After a…

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs made his first court appearance of the offseason on Friday. The 32-year-old pleaded not guilty to felony strangulation charges brought about after an alleged incident with his personal chef in December. The arraignment for the Dec. 2 incident was originally slated to take place on Jan. 23, but was moved to Feb. 13 due to a “previously scheduled professional commitment.” His plea was the only significant outcome to play out at Friday’s court appearance. The judge scheduled Diggs to next appear for a pretrial hearing on April 1. Diggs’s attorney, Michael Schuster, told…

The budding superstar outfielder will play for Team USA if he passes his physical on Saturday, according to Tim Healey of The Boston Globe. He would serve as the injury replacement for Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll, who recently suffered a broken hamate bone. If all goes well with his physical, Anthony will represent the United States alongside Red Sox reliever Garrett Whitlock. The 21-year-old has apparently had a change of heart after ending his rookie season with an oblique injury.…
