Walpole Drowns the Raiders

Junior wide receiver Craig Hanley runs the ball upfield.
On Thursday September 16 the Walpole Rebels took to the gridiron again under downpours and this time their opponent was the Raiders of Wellesley. Wellesley came into the game 1-0 and were confident that this would be the year that they would finally be able to top the Rebels. Walpole was determined to put an end to their hopes as they played their first game under the brand new lights.
The first quarter was highlighted by a 60 yard bomb from senior quarterback Troy Salvatore to wide receiver Dave Conroy for a touchdown. The extra-point was no good and the score going into the second quarter was Walpole on top 6-0. Senior quarterback and Captain Adam Farina went down mid-way through the second quarter after he suffered a serious leg injury that required him being taken off in an ambulance. The Rebels responded with another Salvatore to Conroy hook-up, this time for 44 yards, and another touchdown. Walpole chose to go for two and got the points after a quarterback keeper by Salvatore. Walpole was up 15-0 going into halftime.
The Rebels came out for the second half and continued their dominance. Late in the third quarter, sophomore defensive end David Driscoll picked up the ball after a blocked punt and returned it 14 yards for a touchdown. After a missed extra-point, Walpole was in the lead 20-0. The fourth quarter was almost all Wellesley as they finally had a long drive. Just when the Raiders were about to score, Wellesley fumbled on the Rebels 3 yard line. The Rebels continued to run out the clock and Salvatore even busted out an impressive run to inside Wellesley’s 10. The Rebels scored again, but the touchdown was taken back after a penalty. The game ended with the final score of Walpole 20 to Wellesley 0. This game showed not only Wellesley, but the rest of the Bay State League that the Rebels are not only back this year, but looking for a Herget title and a serious playoff run.

Porkers Win Showdown Against Wildcats
September 24, 2010

in Rebellion Sports
From the WHSTheRebellion.com website:
On Saturday September 11, the Field Hockey Team traveled to Weston to play a non-league game against one of their biggest competitors. Weston has been a very challenging game in previous years, sometimes resulting in the only loss or tie of the season for Walpole. Last year, the Wildcats and the Porkers tied, so this year the Porkers were looking for a win.
The game started with Weston getting into Walpole’s defensive end very quickly. Junior goalie Katie Kelley quickly cleared the ball and for the majority of the half the ball stayed in Walpole’s offensive end. The only problem was that nobody could put the ball in the goal. Junior Meghan Murphy took a stroke, which is very unusual, but the shot was missed. The first half ended with a score of 0-0, but the Porkers seemed to be controlling the game.
The second half began and fans from both Walpole and Weston were eager to see who was going to win the game, or if there would be another tie like last year; but the Porkers were not going to settle with a tie. Finally senior Hannah Feeley scored the first goal of the game, unassisted. In the first corner of the second half senior Lauren Whitmore scored again and senior Caroline Malone followed their lead with another unassisted goal. The final score of the game was 3-0, Walpole with the win.
The Porkers defense didn’t allow Weston to get many chances to shoot on goal. The ball stayed in the Weston end for majority of the game, and it was just a matter of time before the Porkers would put the ball in the net. After winning what may have been their toughest game of the season, the Porkers have high hopes for this year and will have to continue to play their hardest as they face Milton and Wellesley in upcoming games.
