Milford senior Michael Boulanger has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Feb. 17 through Feb. 23. Boulanger is the 24th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and 10th in the winter season.

The Duke University commit continued his unbeaten season (47-0) by winning the Div. 2 state title at 157 pounds and helped the Hawks run away with a third D2 team championship in the past four seasons. This added to Milford’s fifth straight Kelley-Rex title and its second straight team title at the Hockomock Wrestling Championships.

“Mikey has had a dominant senior season heading into All States,” said Milford head coach PJ Boccia. “He is one of Milford’s all-time best wrestlers and is an exceptional scholar-athlete. He will be continuing his academic and wrestling career at Duke University next year. ”

Boulanger was the top seed entering the D2 state meet at Salem High. He made quick work of all four matches to win his second consecutive state title. Boulanger won by tech fall (19-3) over his first opponent from Bridgewater-Raynham (which finished second to Milford in the team standings). He earned a pin over his opponent from Minnechaug (which edged the Hawks to win last year’s D2 team title) and then dominated his semifinal match, beating the wrestler from Marblehead/Swampscott 15-0. Boulanger led second-seed Marco Albanese of Melrose 9-2 in the final before ending the match with a pin in just over a minute. For his career, he is 177-23 overall, a three-time sectional champion, and Milford’s first-ever three-time state champion.

Her performance was highlighted by her 7.03 in the 55-meter dash, which now puts her at No. 1 in Massachusetts. As we go into Divisionals and All-States, we hope to see Nina keep winning, and we are very excited about the potential our 4×200 relay has as well.”

She continued that pace in the 300-meter, taking first in a new record time of 40.20, which was 1.79 seconds faster than the second-place runner. In the 4×200 relay, Kyei-Aboagye joined with Imani Vaughn, Linda Jenner, and Callie Weader to finish in a time of 1:47.80.

Player of the Week: Leo Tran, Sharon Swim

Leo Tran
By HockomockSports.com Staff

Sharon sophomore Leo Tran has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Jan. 27 through Feb. 1. Tran is the 21st athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and seventh in the winter season.

Coming off a terrific freshman season, Tran has impressed in his second varsity campaign and he closed out the regular season with two individual titles and a new meet record at the annual Hockomock Boys Swim Championships held on Friday evening at Milford High. Tran also placed in two relays, as the Eagles took third overall behind winners Milford and second place Franklin.

“Leo had a tremendous meet,” said Sharon head coach Sara Barbera. “He broke an 8-year Hock meet record in the 200 free, and came very close to breaking a 12-year-old 100 free record. Fortunately, Leo is only a sophomore so has a lot of runway ahead of him. It will be fun seeing what he can do at sectionals and states!”

Tran got the meet started by swimming the second leg of the 200-yard medley relay along with Brac Buffa, Justin Hsu, and Tay Luo. The Eagles finished second with a time of 1:49.76. In the 200-yard free, Tran raced to the win with a new meet record time of 1:44.88, which was almost four seconds faster than his nearest competitor. He added another title in the 100 free, finishing in a time of 48.66, which was more than three seconds faster than the second place swimmer. Tran wrapped up a busy day by anchoring the 400 free relay (along with Buffa, Luo, and Alex Ng). The Eagles took third in a time of 3:33.70.

Player of the Week: Joey Ryan, Canton Hockey

Joey Ryan
By HockomockSports.com Staff

Canton junior Joey Ryan has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Jan. 20 through Jan. 26. Ryan is the 20th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and sixth in the winter season.

Ryan scored three times and had an assist for the Bulldogs last week, as Canton maintained its perfect start to the league campaign and extended its unbeaten run to 13 games (12-0-1) since its season-opening loss to Barnstable. Ryan is now second on the team, and in the Hockomock League, with 16 points (six goals and 10 assists).

“Joey has been critical to our success as a team this season,” said Canton head coach Brian Shuman. “Since he moved to our top line late in December, our offense has picked up considerably. Joey is a gifted offensive talent who can score when needed, but he also sets up his teammates with his playmaking ability. In the last three games, he has showcased both skills, tallying two goals and three assists, helping us earn three key victories in that stretch.”

In a showdown with fellow unbeaten King Philip, Ryan scored and assisted on Canton’s two goals to help the Bulldogs secure the win, avenging the team’s lone league loss from last year and keep a one-game lead on Mansfield in the standings. Ryan opened the scoring with a power play and then set up Ryan Elrick for a goal just a couple minutes later to put Canton 2-0 up in the first period. Ryan added the third goal in Canton’s win over Wellesley on Sunday in the first round of the Ed Burns Cup.

Player of the Week: Kiki Lynch, King Philip Hockey

Kiki Lynch
By HockomockSports.com Staff

King Philip junior Kiki Lynch has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Jan. 13 through Jan. 19. Lynch is the 19th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and fifth in the winter season.

Lynch has been outstanding for the Hockomock League-leading Warriors and allowed just two goals in two games this week, while making 60 saves combined. KP is 4-0-0 in league play and one game ahead of Canton in the standings, as Warriors go in search of a first Hock title.

“Kiki has been very focused and determined since the start of the season,” said King Philip head coach Ken Assad. “Her ability to communicate with the defense has created better decision making and quicker breakouts from our defense. She has been able limit the rebounds which helps with the second and third chances. Kiki was asked to help with the GAA this year to get it under two and she gas taken it to heart, she is approaching her 1000 career saves as well.”

After making 36 saves in an overtime, come-from-behind win at Franklin the week before, Lynch continued her stellar form this week. She made 23 saves in a tough, 1-0 loss to Ashland on Wednesday. KP had 37 shots on goal in the game but couldn’t make the breakthrough. She was even better over the weekend, making 44 saves in a 2-1 win over previously unbeaten Medfield. KP is no 8-2-0 on the season and closing in on the top 10 in the Div. 2 power rankings. Lynch has allowed only 10 goals in 10 games this winter with two shutouts.

Player of the Week: Foxboro’s 4×400 Relay Team

Foxboro 4x400 Relay Team
By HockomockSports.com Staff

The Foxboro 4×400 Relay Team of Lauren Share, Lauren Bober, Maddy Luck, and Faith Bober has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Jan. 6 through Jan. 12. The relay team is the 18th Player of the Week chosen for the 2024-25 school year and fourth in the winter season.

In the second Hockomock League indoor track meet of the season, held at The TRACK at New Balance last Thursday night, the 4×400 relay team set a new league-best time to help the Warriors rally and beat North Attleboro to make it a perfect 2-0 start to the season and maintain a tie with Oliver Ames atop the Davenport standings. In addition to the relay win, the foursome also claimed four individual titles on the night.

“We had a feeling that our dual meet against North Attleboro would be relatively close, maybe even down to the relays, and if I had to pick four people to secure the team victory, it was going always to be these four,” said Foxboro coach Matt Smith. “They’ve been putting in an incredible body of work so far this season and we really got to see that here; three of the four were on their third event of the day and they all still dug deep to secure the relay and the meet.”

North led 48-42 going into the final two relays of the meet. After Foxboro’s 4×200 relay team (Mia Flanagan, Keira D’Arcy, Adriana Alberts, and Chloe McGarry) won to keep the Warriors in contention for the overall win, the Foxboro 4×400 team raced home with a time of 4:15.69, which was the best time in the league (North had the second-best time in the league, nearly three seconds slower) to secure the dual meet win. Lauren Bober was the anchor and closed with an impressive 1:00.6. In addition to the relay victory, Lauren Bober also won the 300m and the 55M dash, Faith Bober won the 55M hurdles and was second in the high jump, and Share won the 600M. Luck added a second in the 55M hurdles.

Stoughton senior Ava Vieira has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Dec. 30 through Jan. 5. Vieira is the 17th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and third in the winter season.

Vieira continued her stellar senior season by taking home first place at a pair of tournaments this week, including Stoughton’s first annual Girls Toughtown Tournament, and won all six of her matches by pin.

“Ava has been on a tear to start this season, a 9-0 start all coming with a finish via pin,” said Stoughton head coach Andrew Iverson. “Ava wrestled in two tournaments this past week over winter break and completely dominated the field taking home two gold medals in each of the tournaments. Ava is one of the faces of our program as well as being one of the best wrestlers in our room, battling through injuries and really epitomizing the ‘NoExcuses’ mentality daily, couldn’t be more proud as a coach.”

The week started with a trip to Framingham for the Dan Baldoni Holiday Tournament. Vieira got off to a great start, pinning her first opponent inside the opening 30 seconds of the match. In the second match, Vieira was down 7-2 in the first but battled back and won by fall in the third. Vieira closed out the tournament with a pin in the final and helped the Black Knights finish fifth as a team, despite only have two girls competing (classmate Angie Berry also finished first in her weight class). That success continued in the home meet over the weekend, with Vieira again taking first place with another perfect 3-0 record and three more pins. Stoughton finished seventh out of the 12 teams that competed.

Foxboro senior Kailey Sullivan has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Dec. 23 through Dec. 29. Sullivan is the 16th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and second in the winter season.

Sullivan has been off to a strong start to her senior season, leading the Warriors to a perfect 4-0 start, including three league victories, while averaging more than 20 points per game. Foxboro extended its Hockomock League win streak to 37 games with its unbeaten start to the year and is averaging a league-high 67 points per game.

Foxboro coach Lisa Downs said, “Kailey has always been an extremely talented player, but this year has really stepped into her senior role in a dominating fashion. This season she is also leading our team in assists, which is important because of the defensive pressure she will be facing in games – she has really embraced her role this season and has developed confidence in her teammates to make plays. I look forward to seeing what she is capable of doing every time she steps onto the court.”

Kicking off the season with a win against Taunton, Sullivan led all scorers with 24 points. Two days later, Sullivan helped spark a furious fourth quarter comeback against Franklin to pull out a win after trailing by double digits. She knocked down a pair of threes and scored 14 of her game-high 22 in the fourth, as Foxboro used a 26-11 final quarter to pull out the win. In the following game against Canton, Sullivan again scored 24 as the Warriors rolled to victory. This week, Foxboro had a visit from Wellesley and Sullivan knocked down three triples in the first quarter (six for the game) and nearly outscored the Raiders herself. She scored 26 points and Foxboro cruised to a 67-27 win.

Franklin senior Caden Sullivan has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Dec. 16 through Dec. 22. Sullivan is the 15th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and first in the winter season.

Sullivan put together an impressive start to his senior season, averaging nearly 25 points (nearly double his average from last year) and more than 12 rebounds per game as Franklin won its opening three games and jumped to the top of the Kelley-Rex standings.

“Caden had a great start to the year and really had some impressive stretches when we needed him most,” said Franklin head coach CJ Neely. “He has been great on both ends of the floor and has picked up right where he left off last season. He is such a tough competitor and I’m looking forward to watching him continue to grow.”

In the season opener, Sullivan sparked a second half surge that led the Panthers to a 12-point win over Oliver Ames. The Endicott-commit scored 27 points, grabbed 12 rebounds, and had four steals, impacting play on both ends of the court to secure Neely his 250th career win. Two days later, Sullivan had another impressive all-around game, scoring 25 points and adding nine rebounds and seven steals in a win against Foxboro. He closed out the busy week with a 22-point, 16-rebound performance in a win against rival King Philip.
