Midfield, Sr.

Erick Nader, Framingham

The second-year All-Scholastic scored 10 goals and added 10 assists for the 17-1-6 Flyers. A two-time All- New England selection and twice a Bay State All-Star, Nader overcame nagging shoulder injuries to lead his team to the state final.
Sweeper, Sr.

Ryan Pennie, Framingham

Center Midfield, Sr.

Shane Regan, North Quincy

Regan’s 23 goals and 21 assists gave him 101 career points and All-State honors for the second time. The three-time league All-Star has participated in a state Olympic Development Program and is a member of the foreign language honor society.
