Lynnfield 3
Essex Tech 1
The Pioneers earned a road win on Tuesday, continuing a stellar title defense after last season’s state championship. Lynnfield’s Rocco Schena, frankly, couldn’t be stopped. He scored a goal and provided two assists. Ollie Morgan and Joel Morgan also found the scoresheet for the Pioneers.
Revere 5
Lynn Classical 1
The Rams lost to a talented Revere side on Tuesday. Truth be told, you could say it was a hard matchup, as Revere recently beat defending state champion Somerville by two goals.
Classical was in the game with the scoreboard showing just 1-0 at halftime. In the second half, however, Revere kicked things into high gear and cruised to victory.
The lone goal-scorer for the Rams was Jose Zepada.

Two evenly-matched teams ended in a scoreless draw. Coming up big for the Tanners was goalie Sophia Kassis, who made seven big saves. Head coach Jillian Tobin praised her shot-stopper, who came up big in the third quarter.
“Sophia Kassis kept us in the game with a crucial stop on a penalty stroke in the third,” Tobin said.
When Peabody attacked, Amelia DiBattista did a good job creating space and separation, according to Tobin.
