2007-08 highlight reel
All this week we're bringing you video highlights from the Globe's 2008 All-Scholastic Award banquet that was held Sunday afternoon at the Quincy Marriott. The event featured New England Patriots tight end Ben Watson as the keynote speaker, while former Athletes of the Year Brian Morrissey of Winchester and Meredith Frank of Westwood were the student speakers.
You'll find the links to all three speeches at the bottom of this entry. In the video embedded below, you'll find our 2007-08 highlight reel that aired at the start of the ceremony. Congrats to all of this year's All-Scholastics.
We'll have much more video throughout the week. Here's the tentative plan:
- Monday: Ben Watson's speech
- Tuesday: Brian Morrissey's speech
- Wednesday: Meredith Frank's speech
- Thursday: 2007-08 highlight reel
- Friday: Athlete of the Year presentations

This blogger might want to review your comment before posting it.
Look for updates from:
- Bob Holmes: A Reading resident (Go Rockets!) and Boston College graduate, Holmes is the Boston Globe High School Sports Editor. We remind you now that his weekly picks are often made in jest so everyone just calm down when he picks against Everett for 11 straight weeks.
- Mike Carraggi: An Everett native (Go Tide!), Mike attends Eastern Nazarene college and is entering his second year with the Globe. He'll focus on Division 1 this fall, which means he'll spend a lot of time in his hometown, which Forsberg thinks is cool because the Tide have that Fried Dough cart.
- Emily Wright: A Hyannis native (Go Barnstable Red Raiders!), Emily is a senior at Emerson College and has been with the Globe since the end of July. She'll cover Division 1A and will be the first intern we've trusted to navigate her way to Dennis-Yarmouth or any other school on the Cape.
- Mike Grossi: A Lexington native (Go Minutemen!), Mike attends Northeastern and has been with the Globe for two months. He'll cover Division 2 and 2A and unsuccessfully lobbied to include Lexington in the preseason Top 20.
- Jonathan Raymond: A native of Benicia, Calif. (a suburb of San Francisco), Jonathan attends Northeastern and has been working at the Globe since the end of June. He will be focusing on Division 3 and is likely woefully underprepared for covering a game in a foot of snow.
- David Carty: A native of West Bridgewater (Go Wildcats!), David is a senior at Emerson College and has been working at the Globe for a year. He'll cover Divisions 3A and 4 because, "small school ball is in my blood."
- The bench: You'll also catch updates from our regional contributors, including Globe North's Julian Benbow and South's Monique Walker. Correspondent Brendan Hall will have updates from the Globe West coverage area and will often try to sneak in Central Mass. news.
When will the All-Scholastic "Athlete of the Year presentations" video be put up? I was unable to watch my son receive his POY award as I was recovering from surgery.
Forsberg's response:
Unfortunately, the individual POY awards will not be posted (there's simply too many). Only the winners of our overall Athletes of the Year will be posted (which should come later this summer).
