Boys JV Crew Earns Bronze Medal

The Medford High boys crew junior varsity four won a bronze medal in the state championships on May 27, which was held on the Merrimack River in Lowell.

“This is the first season this boat has rowed together, placing in several regattas, including the Greater Boston League Championships. These rowers are all underclassman so will be able to row again together next year,” said Medford parent Julia Hendrix.
