As the only team in the Division 2 South state tournament with a record under .500, the odds were already against the Dedham High field hockey team before yesterday’s preliminary round game against Foxboro.
With six Bay State Conference Herget Division titles and a Division 2 South sectional crown to his credit during his tenure as Dedham High girls soccer coach, Don Savi has plenty of championship jackets hanging in his closet. But he’ll wear the one with 2009 stitched on it with particular pride.

The Dedham High field hockey team will open the postseason on Wednesday (2:30 p.m.) against Foxboro in a Division 2 South preliminary round game. The Marauders are the No. 17 seed entering with a 6-11-1 record, qualifying via the Sullivan Rule. While Foxboro, which plays in the Hockomock League, is No. 16 with a 6-5-7 record. The winner will earn a trip to top-seeded Harwich (15-1-2) on Friday.
The effort left plenty to be desired, the execution was lacking and consequently the result was nothing short of a disaster for the Dedham High football team on Friday night.
The Dedham High girls soccer team has been among the Bay State Conference’s elite teams throughout the decade, but when the Marauders slipped to nine wins last fall and suffered a rare early tournament exit, it would have been easy to believe it was a signal their remarkable run was near a close.
Patrice Vettori owns a lot of lasts on the Dedham High girls soccer team. The senior captain is the last Marauder to make the varsity as eighth-grader, the last five-year starter and the last link to the most successful team in program history, the 2005 Division 2 state finalists.

With rakes in hand a team of Lowe’s volunteers, from stores in Dedham, Saugus, Weymouth and Woburn, was at Anna Marshall's Claybourne Street home Friday, Oct. 30 to remedy that situation. Using a $10,000 grant from Lowe’s, the nonprofit Rebuilding Together Boston arranged for various improvements to be made inside the home, including in the bathroom, where mold will be removed, the ceiling replastered and a new fan installed.

Shopping with her mom at Spirit Halloween at the Dedham Mall, 8-year-old Emma Weiss had a certain costume in mind: a “candy corn witch” outfit that includes a layered dress, long black coat, black boots and “an up-do wig.”
Dedham was given a 2009 Leading by Example Award today at the State House, a recognition of its environmental efforts on many fronts, from energy efficiency to green schools to the coming rollout of single-stream recycling.
After taking a few “breath holds,” a middle-age mom of three gets help putting steel shackles around her ankles and wrists and wrapping multiple chains around her body. Counting a 15-pound lead belt and nine padlocks, she straps on 55 pounds of weight in all.
