The venue size will shrink a bit. But the stage is even bigger.

Nicholas Bates led the Falcons with 12 points, Nick McKenna dumped home 11 markers of his own, Daniel Connors added 10 points and Vincent Clifford was next with 8 points for the locals.

The Danvers High School boys hockey team pulled off several upsets on the way to the North Division 2 title game.

Thanks to a late push on Saturday, the Falcons clinched a berth in Tuesday's Division 3 state semifinal contest.
Jake Cawlina made just three baskets during Saturday's North Division 2 final. He made sure his third one, however, was a memorable one. The Danvers senior drilled a tiebreaking trey from the corner against Wayland in the closing minutes to give the Falcons the lead. Danvers held on for the 57-52 victory and advanced to play in the state semifinal round. “We knew how tough it was going to be, how good they are, how talented they are,” said Danvers coach John Walsh. “We’ve played them in the tournament the past three years, so we were in for a fight. We knew that.” Danvers next plays at 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday at TD Garden against Martha's Vineyard with a berth in the state title game on the line.
