If you can shoot 3-pointers and defend at a high level, you’ll likely have a long and productive career in the NBA. Those two skills have never been more in demand. Every single team in the league shot more than 30 3-pointers per game this past season. Only one team did that 10 years ago in the 2014-15 season. Shooting the 3-pointer and defending it are critical to success in 2025. The Boston Celtics have used this formula to great success in the three seasons that Joe Mazzulla has been head coach, including a 2024 NBA championship. The C’s led the…

WORCESTER – Ahead of Saturday’s Div. 2 softball state final, Silver Lake head coach Tony Pina was quoted suggesting that for as much as his group needed to beat Massachusetts Gatorade Player of the Year Alyx Rossi, third-seeded Bedford needed to beat ace Delaney Moquin – and his money was on Moquin. With a two-run home run in the first inning and a sensational gem from the circle, Moquin (complete-game shutout, four hits, three walks, 12 strikeouts) showed why, anchoring the No. 1 Lakers to a 4-0 win at Worcester State in an all-time pitchers’ duel for their first state…

The Boston Bruins wasted zero time signing Victor Soderstrom. The B’s agreed to a one-year, two-way deal with the young defenseman on Saturday, just one day after acquiring his rights from the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for a seventh-round pick and defenseman Ryan Mast. Soderstrom, 24, was a restricted free agent prior to signing the deal. The Arizona Coyotes originally selected him No. 11 overall in the 2019 NHL Draft, moving him up and down between the NHL and AHL across his four seasons with the club. Soderstrom decided to head back home to Sweden last season to play for Brynas…
On a Friday the 13th night on the farm, the affiliates were a very spooky 0-4 on the day – and most by a Red Sox special, losing by one run. Let’s get right into it! Worcester: L, 3-4 (F/10) (BOX SCORE) Following a pretty decent outing from Jose DeLeon, who went five innings allowing just two runs, the WooSox were in pretty good shape in Lehigh Valley (Phillies AAA). You might even think they might pull off an extra-inning win after getting just four hits in the first nine innings of the game, but that should have been an…
After obtaining the rights to Swedish defenseman Victor Soderstrom on Friday, the Bruins inked the blueliner to a one-year, two-way deal that carries an NHL cap hit of $775,000 on Saturday. Originally the 11th overall pick of the Arizona Coyotes in 2019, Soderstrom was obtained from the Chicago Blackhawks for defenseman Ryan Mast and a 2025 seventh round pick. Soderstrom had never played for the Blackhawk organization, which had picked him up from Arizona/Utah when they took on the Shea Weber contract. In 53 games with Arizona over parts of four NHL seasons, Soderstrom posted 1-10-11 totals. In 170 career…
MEDFORD — It all came down to the last play. Trailing by a point, the South had one last chance of winning the Shriners All-Star Football Classic. After the South took over on downs at its own 39 with seven seconds left, Mike Galligan of North Quincy completed a pass to Maximilian Gamble of Bellingham, who got out of bounds at midfield with two seconds left. On the final play, Galligan threw deep and Woburn’s Caeden Davis picked off the pass, sealing the 7-6 victory for the North on Friday at Hormel Stadium. “We kind of thought it would be…
The Boston Red Sox took the first game of the weekend series over the New York Yankees by a score of 2-1. The Red Sox have now won three of the first four games in the season series and are playing their best baseball of the season. The impetus for the victory was Garrett Crochet’s 8 1/3, one-run performance. Crochet was dominant for the majority of the game. He made one mistake over the course of 107 pitches. That one mistake was put onto Landsdowne Street to tie the game in the ninth inning. While Crochet didn’t record the win,…
