TAKEN FROM THE 1926 MHS YEARBOOK

Melrose produced another star sextet which went through a heavy schedule of 22 games, winning 19, tying 1, and losing 2 games, a remarkable record. They started the season by winning from Cambridge Latin 5-3 in the first league game. This was a signal for more victories, and high schools, preparatory schools, and college freshmen suffered defeat at the hands of the Melrose team.

Melrose entered the Round-Robin series in the Arena with a clean slate. In the first game Cambridge Latin was able to stave off defeat until the last period when Captain Lloyd dented the draperies for the only score of the game. We were next matched against Newton who scored a lucky 2-0 victory. The fast Hebron Academy team from Maine was our next opponent and handed us our second setback of the year with the score of 3-1. The taste of defeat was bitter for our boys, so they sweetened it by beating Stoneham 2-0 and working into a triple tie for interscholastic honors. By agreement of the coaches, the tie was not played off.

The Melrose forward line of Captain Lloyd, Sanford, and Ripley earned the honor of all-scholastic forward line by choice of the league coaches.
