Wanted: Player Diaries
We're dusting off our Player Diaries blog for the fall season and we're looking for athletes who might be interested in chronicling their seasons on Boston.com.
Last fall, Mansfield football standout Mike McPherson and Ursuline volleyball All-Scholastic Caitlin Burchill kept us updated on their exciting seasons. Now we want you to tell us all about your fall season.
Interested? Drop us an email with your name, sport you play, and a brief bio about yourself. Remember, you don't have to be the team superstar. Heck, if you're the stats keeper and you want to tell the world about how your team is doing, we want you, too.
We'll pick a handful of our favorites to handle the Player Diaries this fall. Hey, it doesn't look bad on a college resume, either.
EMISCA dedication
The Eastern Massachusetts Interscholastic Swim Coaches Academy will dedicate the Massachusetts Swim Coaches Hall of Fame Wednesday, Aug. 27 at the Milford High School Pool with the unveiling of the State Coaches Hall of Fame at 7:30 p.m.
Established in 1981, the Massachusetts Swim Coaches Hall of Fame honors the finest coaches in Massachusetts's history of swimming and diving, and a similar display is on exhibit in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. at the International Swimming Hall of Fame. The exhibit in Milford will include the Jack McDonald Memorial Award, Massachusetts state records,
along with photos depicting the people and events that helped shape interscholastic swimming in Massachusetts.
