Monday Rockets Sports Update
September 25, 2023
• Football looked to continue its hot start against Newton North, and Boys Soccer took on St. John’s Prep in a rematch of last year’s D1 State Championship.
It put a few miles on our cars this past weekend, but the action on the field was certainly worth it! The Rockets were on fire when they took on the Newton North Tigers this past Friday night, appearing almost unstoppable in their early action. Kristen Connors was there and she brings us the highlights. Also, it was more than just the promise of a rematch that brought the Boys Soccer team to Concord-Carlisle on Saturday. They were on a mission to call attention to a good cause. Check out the best of this weekend’s games!
