n Emerson Coleman’s first year
coaching the girls’ soccer team,
he lead them to a state title. In
his second year at the helm the team
lost to Canton in the South Sectional
finals.
There seems little doubt that his
Lady Dragons will be back in the play-
offs this year. How far they go could
well depend on his team’s physical
condition.
“If we stay healthy we have the po-
tential to play with anyone in the state,”
said Coleman, who returns 25 veterans
along with two promising freshmen
who have cracked the starting lineup.
While Coleman is blessed with
plenty of experience in his lineup, he
did suffer one major loss from his 2009
roster in two-time Boston Globe Player
of The Year, Caitlin Burke, who was a
major offensive force that drew plenty
Despite the loss Duxbury has plen-
ty of offense in captains Melissa Gavin
and Emily Gallagher, along with fresh-
man Emily Wiemer, who her coach de-
scribes as a scorer and finisher.
Freshman Gabie Davis will start in
Coleman’s midfield, along with a group
that includes Katie Finocchiaro, Jesse
Williams, Laura Nee, Sarah Jones and
Lily Connolly.
While Duxbury appears loaded up
front, it’s the Lady Dragon defense that
could carry the team deep into the play-
offs.
“We are very strong defensively,”
said Coleman. “Getting Lauren Grady
back is a big boost. She was the starting
stopper the year we won the title and
missed all of last year with an injury.

magine that your team has been
stripped of its players through
graduation and you are forced
to field a team with players you have
barely seen. How would you like to be
in Coach John Tocci’s shoes?
The fourth-year Duxbury boys’ soc-
cer coach found himself in that tough
position when the preseason started.
But thanks to the work of JV Coach Bill
Wilhelm, Tocci took his player person-
al opinions under advisement and has
been able to put together a team he feels
can be a solid competitor in the Patriot
League.
Having lost 19 seniors from last
year’s 14-2-5 team, it has been trial and
error for Tocci as he went about put-
ting together his starting lineup for last
Saturday’s opener against Canton (loss
3-1).
Being without a high-scoring, go-to
forward, Tocci has been emphasizing
that success in 2010 will have to come
through a team effort.
“We’ll play a 3-4-3 offense this year
because it allows us to pressure the ball
with extra forwards up front,” said Toc-
ci.
Senior captains Eric Larsen and
Brett Sahlberg, along with classmate
Zach Gino seem to have won the battle

The boys’ soccer team lost over a dozen seniors to graduation, but the head coach feels the team’s
willingness to work together gives them an edge heading into the season.
Having lost 19 seniors from last
year’s 14-2-5 team, it has been trial
and error for Tocci as he went about
putting together his starting lineup
for last Saturday’s opener against
Canton (loss 3-1).
type player who has been hard-working
and steady in the middle of the field.
Juniors Cam Mullen and Fenton
McCall will take care of the outside
midfield for the Dragons where Tocci
feels both players can use their speed
and explosiveness to take on faster op-
ponents.
The backfield will be filled by junior
Ben Schroeder, senior captain Mike Ga-
brielli, and junior Brendan North.
“Mike has really put in the time to
become a better player,” Tocci said of
his captain, and so has North.
“He was given the chance to show
what he could do, and he earned his spot
through hard work. It’s rare when an op-
ponent can get by him.”
Duxbury’s last line of defense will
be junior goalkeeper Justin Marino.
Well over 6’, he has good jumping
ability and surprisingly good range ac-
cording to Tocci. Marino will be backed
up by junior Jon Gomer, who will also
get a chance in net and an opportunity
to show his coach what he can do on the
field.
Tocci has some players coming off
his bench that he is counting on for pro-
ductive minutes.

Administrators and
parents made aware of
concussion management
A
By Thom Holdgate, Athletic Director
nyone involved in sports
has noticed that concus-
sions, and more importantly,
concussion awareness, have become a
bigger part of the sports environment.
As more and more people learn about
the long-term problems associated with
concussions, various groups involved
in sports have begun to put mandatory
procedures in
place to deal
with them.
A concus-
sion is a mild
brain injury
caused by a
bump, blow
or jolt to the
head or body
that causes the
brain to move
rapidly inside

proximately
60,000 concussions occur in high school
sports annually. It is believed that many
more go unreported.
The MIAA (Massachusetts Inter-
scholastic Athletic Association), the
ruling body of our high school sports
program, recently added the following
rule:
Any  athlete  who  exhib-
its  signs,  symptoms  or  behav-
iors  consistent  with  a  concussion
(such  as  loss  of  consciousness,  head-
ache,  dizziness,  confusion,  or  bal-
ance  problems)  shall  be  immedi-
ately  removed  from  the  contest  and 
shall  not  return  to  play  un-

The National Federation of High
Schools now provides an online course:
Concussion in Sports: What You Need
to Know. This free course is available
through the website: www.nfhslearn.
com. Concussion in Sports provides a
guide to understanding, recognizing and
properly managing concussions in high
school sports. The Centers for Disease
Control has endorsed the course.
Our high school has been lucky
enough to have a full-time trainer for
over 15 years: Tim McPhillips. As our
first line of defense, Tim has dealt with
numerous injuries including concus-
sions. Tim is also the first person to tell
students and parents when they need to
seek further medical help. Many school
districts are without full-time trainers
because of either budgetary issues or
they cannot find anyone interested in
the long hours. Tim’s service to our high

ntering her fourth year as the
DHS varsity field hockey
coach, Pam Manley figured
she had her routine down pat. But a
couple of events happened that altered
her game plan.
The birth of her first child, John
Kelley Manley, during tryouts, and inju-
ries to two starters in the opener against
Marshfield has Manley making changes
on the run. Thanks to the timely and
able assistance of Assistant Coach Terry
Vandewater, who conducted tryouts,
Manley was able to pick her varsity
squad that she feels is one of the tough-
est in the Patriot League because of its
experience and depth.
That depth is going to be tested ear-
ly, as Cory Connolly (broken foot) and
Kirsten Garvey (ACL/knee) went down
in the opener and could be lost for the
season, leaving two big holes that the
coach feels can be filled.
Captains Brian Connolly and Siob-
han McCarthy will lead the team that is
coming off a 15-3-2 season in 2009 that
saw them win the league title and fall
in the second round of the playoffs to
Hopkinton, who the Dragons will face
Last year Manley carried 24 players
with a large number of seniors, but
has whittled her roster down to 21

in the opener.

Last year Manley carried 24 players

prior to her misfortunes in the opener.
Speed and a high skill level mark
this year’s squad that has Grace Nissi as
the leader up front at center forward and
the speedy Molly Zaverucha on the left
wing. Connolly was expected to make
this a dangerous trio, but her injury now
opens the door for Emily Munson, Sara
Varano, and Emmy Horton to step up
and fill those shoes.
The midfield has some of the best
athletes on the team, and Manley hopes
to use that athleticism to create a second
offense line.
Briana Connolly, Martha Findley,
and Hannah Murphy have all the stick
skills needed to provide that offensive
punch, as Manley will ease Chelsea Mi-
chelson and Kara Falcone into the mid-
field also, trying to make this part of her
McCarthy has been a stalwart on
defense for a couple of years.
“She controls the center of the
field,” said Manley of her captain,
who occasionally moves into the
midfield.
Alongside her captain will be
Keri Gould at left defense, an aggres-
sive and fearless defensive flyer, who
will be backed up by Kathryn Nutter,
another defensive flyer who plays
aggressively and isn’t afraid to take
chances.
Caroline Phinney will also be
back on defense and has a “killer”
drive according to Manley, a positive
skill to have when reversing the flow
of play. Ali Hammel, the only fresh-
man to make the team, will also see
significant time in the backfield.
Anchoring the defense and rarely
“She always comes up with the
ball and I rarely have to tell her to get
in position. It just comes naturally for
her,” says Manley.
With a solid and experienced de-
fense, life for goalie Sophie Fitzpat-
rick will be a lot easier.
After starting as a sophomore,
Fitzpatrick seems to be a lot more
comfortable this year with a season
under her belt.
“Sophie did a lot of off-season
camps and is getting a lot more
comfy around the net,” said Manley.
“She seems to be able to come of the
net more with that newfound confi-
dence.”
Other members of the team who
will battle for playing time include
Casey Reinhart, Olivia Rosenfeld,
and Kylie White.
