2019 HS season

They are definitely a solid team and are well organized, but I was surprised to see them lose against Wayland this past weekend who are not very strong

First half was more or less even, but Bedford absolutely dominated the entirety of the second, with wave after wave of penetration deep into the Wayland end, doing everything but getting the equalizer. They finally broke through late, but in a cruel twist, Wayland, which had barely crossed midfield in the half, then capitalized on a rebound off a free kick to net the winner.

Weymouth Heldon for 1-0 win over Braintree. Braintree keeper made error before half or would have been a tie. Two even teams. Very slight advantage Weymouth at home.

Even teams? What on earth game were you watching? Did Braintree even have a shot on goal? Nothing that I can remember. Weymouths keeper only touched the ball kn the occasional goal kick. The game was much closer than it ever should’ve been.

Terrible goal to give up by the keeper but he also made 6-7 excellent saves of break seats, headers from in tight, and other chances. Gave could’ve easily been 5-0 at halftime.

I would review your eye sight and perspective about watching soccer the next time to go and watch a game.

I don’t recall Braintree having a quality shot on net. If Weymouth had someone that could hit the side of a barn it would have been 7 or 8 to nothing.

Medway defeated Dedham 5-0. It was reported Dedham with a 5-0 win, which is incorrect.

Lol Braintree. 4-1 L vs. Xaverian. Enough is enough with the Braintree talk.

1. St Johns Prep
2. Lincoln-Sudbury
3. Framingham
4. Lexington
5. Nauset
6. Bedford
7. Needham
8. Weymouth
9. North Andover

18. Hingham
19. Silver Lake
20. Medway
21. BC High
22. Winchester
23. Norwell
24. Wellesley
25. Medford

Just outside: Xaverian, Pembroke, A-B, revere, New Bedford, Franklin, Watertown, Reading, Beverly, Norton, Duxbury, Rockland

Breaking down the list: Top 8 team are on a Tier of their own. D1 North will be fun to watch come tournament time.

9-25 are all possible interchangeable depending on who can put together a run during the 2nd half of the season and who struggles down the stretch. I expect Wellesley to drop out with a tough second half of the season. Silver lake and Hingham will pad their win totals but neither have a impressive win yet. OA and Milford are the class of the Hock and will give Nauset a good challenge in the D2 south.

Teams who could move into the top 25 soon, next 4 who will be in over the next week or so. Rockland ( haven’t really played anyone impactful) Watertown, reading, and Beverly

Ultimately, the champion will come from D1 North. Framingham and Lexington are top teams. Haven't seen SJP or LS yet. The south has little to offer. Weymouth looks to be best but really not so strong.

So unfortunately as we’ve seen in the past it’s not always the best team that wins eastern mass. I expect the North to be a blood bath so it’s possible by the time they get to the EMASS finals they could be pretty beat up compared to a Weymouth, Brockton, or Needham who are likely favorites out of the south.

Prep at Needham tonite will be telling. Haven't seen Needham but my take on Prep is that they are good but definitely beatable by a good team that doesn't give away goals.

I think Needham got a week off at the right time after getting thumped by Lexington 4-1 last Saturday. After knowing and seeing St Johns play a few times, I expect them win 2-1 over Needham tonight.

Why is Brockton so high? By my table, they lost to Scituate, Xaverian, and BC High.

It's absolutely terrible that North and South always play in the semi

On a great second half, Framingham rolled over Somerville 3-1. Only shot of second half was the goal from Somerville on the last play of the game
