Elise and Monique Lyons ~ Bedford Sisters are Austin Prep Hockey Stars

By |

New England is at the forefront of developing woman hockey players, and two of the best are right here in Bedford.

Elise Lyons, grade 11, and her sister Monique, grade 8, daughters of Pat Lyons and Therese Franks, played wing on the first line of the co-state champion Cougars of Austin Preparatory School in Reading.  The team was two days away from a showdown at TD Garden with Woburn for the MIAA title when the Covid-19 threat took over, truncating the tournament.

Bedford Youth Lacrosse Seeks Residents Interested in Joining its Board of Directors

By |

Residents of Bedford,

As our organization continues to grow each year, so does our need for help to enable our programs to run smoothly. Lacrosse is a truly great sport with a rich history and unique cultural heritage.  We’re proud that so many young Buccaneers are a part of the lax community, but to properly serve our lax athletes Bedford Youth Lacrosse (BYL) needs many hands.

Bedford Firefighters Present: Bedford Thanksgiving Classic 2019

By |

Bedford Firefighter Nick Anderson is hosting an exhibition hockey game between the Town of Bedford, MA employees and Alumni vs The Bedford High School varsity hockey program. This game is scheduled for Friday Nov. 29th at 12:40pm at The Edge Sports Center and has come to be known as the “Bedford Thanksgiving Classic.” Proceeds from a 50/50 raffle will be going to benefit the hockey program whereas admission fees and an additional set of raffles will be to benefit the Asperger’s/Autism Network, www.aane.org . They are a local 501 (c)(3) nonprofit based in Watertown, MA with an excellent record for how they use money donated.  Autism is near and dear to me as my oldest childhood friend has 2 wonderful children and they are both on the spectrum.

Medway 1, Bedford 0

By |

Four times over the past 40 years, the Bedford High School men’s soccer team has won an MIAA North sectional championship. And four times, the Buccaneers have lost to the South champion in the state semifinals. And each time the score has been the same: 1-0.
 
The latest chapter in this exercise in déjà vu unfolded Tuesday night at Manning Field in Lynn.  Medway High School’s Troy Newman headed a shot into an open side of the net six minutes into the second half. And although the Bucs had a clear territorial advantage for the rest of the game, the single score stood up.

BHS Golf has a Rough Start to the Season

By |

Before the season had started BHS Golf Coach, Jim Nagle, told me that he thought they had a very deep and competitive team this year.  Nothing like starting the school year off and having a tri-meet on the first day of classes.
