Watertown Football Faced Tough Melrose Team in Middlesex League Opener
|
Watertown ran into a tough Melrose football team in the team’s Middlesex League opener, and fell at 28-13 at Victory Field on Friday night.
Both teams came off superb seasons a year ago, with Melrose winning the Div. 4 Super Bowl champion and Watertown winning the Div. 5 North Section championship. The Raiders, however, played without senior running back Mange Camara, who was injured the previous game against Cambridge Rindge & Latin. Melrose (2-1) scored in the first quarter and held a 7-0 halftime lead.
