Junior shortstop Andy Brown, a three-year starter, hit .405 last year.

Reloaded Panthers hope

to mash their way to
another NEC title
By Matt Williams
staff writer
The Beverly High baseball
team set a school record with 19
wins a season ago.
The scariest part for the rest
of the Northeastern Conference
is that the Panthers could be
even better this spring.
Despite graduating NEC
Large MVP Peter Kallas, vet-
eran head coach Dave Wilbur
returns the bulk of a lineup
that will be the certified
murderer’s row of the North
Shore.
“Last year doesn’t guaran-
tee us any wins this year, but
it should give us more confi-
dence,” said Wilbur. “We’ve
played some really good
competition and know what it
takes to be successful.
“We have a great group of
kids who like baseball and are
ready to play. Our key players
are experienced players, and we
have some guys who have been
waiting for their turn.”
Junior catcher Joe Wioncek
is the centerpeice of the area’s
most prolific offensive club. The
backstop can spray the ball all
over the field and hit .461 last
year with an absurd on-base
percentage of .621.
Fellow junior Andy Brown is a
three-year starter back at short-
stop after hitting .405 last spring
while scoring a team-best 32
runs.
Meanwhile, third baseman
Austin Butler, who batted .417
in his first season as a Panther
after transferring from St.
John’s Prep, is the team’s top
returning long ball threat with
five homers as a junior.
The Panthers return a host of
other .300-plus hitters, including
NEC all-star Felix Zamot (.389)
at first as well as Mark Han-
nable and Mark Theriault (.351
average, .527 on-base pct.) in the
outfield. Ethan Trowt (.371 aver-
age last year) and Steve DuBois
(.319) should also contribute.
Dan Cook, Chris Mitchell and
Steve Wilbur will battle for time
at second.
After scoring 212 runs — an
average of 9.6 per game — and
hitting .365 as a team a year
ago, the prevailing notion is
that Beverly can score runs.
Junior catcher Joe Wioncek connected for a slugging percentage of
.621 in 2009.
Defending the NEC Large title,
however, will come down to pre-
venting them.
“The chore of the preseason
is to replace 16 of our 19 wins,”
said Wilbur, who graduated 16
pitching wins in Kallas, Frankie
Messina and Matt Lanza. “That
starts with Kyle (Johnson) and
Ethan (Trowt). We have some
quality young arms and are
looking for those two to be solid
at the top.”
Trowt was reliable last year,
with an earned run average
of 3.47 and a opponent’s bat-
ting average of .196 against in
28 innings of work. Johnson, a
junior, provided some strong
innings a year ago and will be
counted on in a bigger role this
spring. Cook and Theriault also
have the ability to step in on the
hill as needed.
Defending the NEC Large title
will be tough with Lynn English
and Peabody always in the mix.
Salem and Lynn Classical look
improved and crossover games
against Marblehead, Danvers
and Gloucester are never
cupcakes.
The Panthers have a new
wrinkle as they look to qualify
for the postseason for the sev-
enth straight season — they’ll
be in the Division 2 North tour-
nament, rather than Div. 1.

Salem softball team has loftier goals

There is a sense of achieve-
ment with the Salem High soft-
ball team this season.
The Witches had a break-
through last spring, qualifying
for the state tourney for the first
time since 2000. The current
seniors have seen the team’s
win total spike every year, from
seven in their freshman year to
nine as sophomores and to 13
last season.
But even though coach Dan
Bertone’s team has earned
more respect, it is far from con-
tent. A postseason loss to tradi-
tional power Acton-Boxboro and
a desire to be a bigger player in
Eastern Mass. softball will fuel
the Witches this season.
“We thought we might have
enough wins last year to get a
home game in the state tourna-
ment, but it didn’t happen,” said
Bertone, who in his sixth season
as the head coach. “We would
love to have a home game this
year, so it might take 15 wins or
whatever. These kids want to
take another step.”
The Witches appear to have
the talent to do it — provided
the attitude and focus are there,
too.
Salem should have one of the
top pitchers around in junior
Sarah Chasse, a returning
Northeastern Conference all-
star who posted a 1.94 ERA last
season. Chasse’s effectiveness
is enhanced by the ability to
field her position, which dis-
courages the opposition from
playing small ball against the
Witches.
“With Sarah on the mound
and Julia Jennings (a two-time
NEC all-star) at third base, we
see fewer bunts,” said Bertone.
“It kind of takes that aspect
of the game out of people’s
minds.
“I don’t need Sarah to be
totally overpowering,” added
the coach. “She’ll keep us in
every game with her control.
If she can get 7-8 strikeouts a
game, I think we have a defense
that can make enough plays to
get the rest of the outs.”
Jennings gives the Witches
stability and skill at third base
and she’s coming off a season
in which she hit .350. “She’s
just a complete player,” said
Bertone.
Senior Rachel Channen enters
her second season as Chasse’s
catcher and Salem has an adept
centerfielder in senior Michelle
Stanley, who gets a good jump
on the ball and covers a lot of
territory.
Darcy Therriault, affection-
ately called the “dirt dog”
by her coach because of her
scrappy style, is back at second
base and is the team’s best
baserunner. “She’ll hit in the
No. 9 spot, but it’s like having
a second leadoff hitter,” said
Bertone.
Shortstop appeared to be a
huge question mark for the
Witches with the graduation of
four-year starter Ashley White,
but senior Stephanie Garcia,
who missed the last two seasons
with ACL injuries, has taken
control of the position. “She’s
ready to go, and I think she’ll be
a very big bat for us,” Bertone
said of Garcia.
Lindsey Trammel, the desig-
nated player last season, will be
the leadoff hitter for the second
straight year. Juniors Sarah
Malarkey (infield or outfield)
and Allie LaMonica (first base)
will also be counted on.

Peabody girls hoping to be queens of court in NEC

By Dan Harrison
staff writer

For good teams, disappoint-

ment can often lead to success
down the road.
So after a disappointing
first round exit in the Division
1 North state tournament to
Central Catholic of Lawrence
last spring, the Peabody High
girls tennis team is back for this
season ready to wipe the slate
clean and make some noise in
the postseason.

Danvers girls spring track looking

to defend its NEC South championship
By Jean DePlacido
correspondent

The past two years have been

very good for the Danvers High
girls spring track team. They’re
hoping to follow suit again this
spring.
The Falcons went a perfect
7-0 in winning the Northeastern
Conference South champion-
ship in 2009 after having gone
6-1 the previous spring. This
time around, they realize there
will be a real challenge to their
crown coming from a powerful
Marblehead squad.
“Every year you win, the
target on your back gets big-
ger,” said Falcons head coach
Sean Dunleavy, now in his 10th
year at the helm. “We’ve got a
lot of returning veterans and
some new faces mixed in. We’re
expecting another strong year.
“But when you look at what
Marblehead is doing right
now, it’s easy to say that will
be a very big meet for us (this
Thursday at home). Their girls
are running super, and under
Mike (Toomey, the Magicians’
new head coach) they’re a very
dangerous team.”
The strongest area for the Fal-
cons are the throwing events,
and they are also solid in jumps.

Burgos solidified the catching position

spring.

„„ Keep An Eye On: The Falcons lost
their four-year battery of pitcher Diana
Bean and Jillian Carroll, who were the
Falcons backbone, so the team lacks
experience at two critical positions.
However, the Falcons have outstanding
leadership and talent with returnees
like Vega, Dean and Zecha. The Falcons
should be a good hitting team and they
can play defense. There is also a cer-
tain level of confidence after Danvers
reached the Division 1 North final last
year.

Prep laxmen poised for another championship run

By Matt Jenkins
staff writer

The St. John’s Prep lacrosse

team made some pretty sweet
memories last year, inlcud-
ing a regular season victory
over Duxbury that stopped the
Green Dragons’ in-state win
streak at 99 games and a nar-
row defeat against the same
squad in the Division 1 state
championship.
Eagles coach John Roy would
prefer his team to forget all
about that stuff.
At least for now.
Roy feels that if his squad
wants to continue reaching its
goals, then the Eagles need to
remain focused on what’s in
front of them, not behind.
“An obstacle for a team that
has met with some success is
relying on past accomplish-
ments to get you by,” Roy said.
“We’re going to attempt not
to do that this year. My job
is to steer the ship, keep us
grounded and keep them work-
ing hard.
“There’s some luck involved.
Just because we’ve been to Har-
vard Stadium once (for the state
championship game) doesn’t
mean you (automatically) get to
go back.”
The Eagles lost some key
pieces from the team that took
Duxbury (a 13-12 loss) to the
wire in the state championship
