MHS Boys' Track Falls to Norton, 84-52

Medfield head coach Tom Woods said Norton was just too much on the field side of track and field and despite a strong effort from Medfield on the track, it was too little, too late in a Tri-Valley League defeat Monday.

"Norton just came out swinging," said MHS boys' track coach Tom Woods. "They took 26 out of 27 points in the throws. On the track we saw a lot of season bests and fast times but it wasn't enough to overcome the hole we got into."

Medfield is now 3-2 this season and will host Ashland on Thursday at 3:30 p.m.
