Watertown senior Alex Egan and the Raiders won the North Section title in 2017.
The Raiders soccer squads take the field in early September for the beginning of the 2018 season. See the boys and girls varsity schedules below.
Last season, Watertown High School’s boys team won the North Section title and made it to the MIAA state semifinal. Meanwhile, the girls hope to return to the state tournament for the first time since 2015.
The girls will be the first to play at Victory Field, on Sept. 5 against Reading. A month later, Belmont visits for the only matchup of the season between the two rivals. The Raiders will play three games under the lights at Victory Field, Sept. 17 vs. Winchester, Sept. 20 vs. Melrose and Oct. 11 against Wakefield.
The boys open on the road, but play their second game at home against Winchester on Sept. 7, which will be one of several night home games for the Raiders. They will also play under the lights on Sept. 10 vs. Jeremiah Burke, Sept. 25 vs. Burlington, Sept. 27 vs. Wilmington, and Oct. 6 vs. Melrose.
