Or is it six?

Max Boehm, Wellesley — The sophomore tossed a two-hitter with eight strikeouts, but what stood out was his efficiency, lasting seven innings on just 69 pitches.

Finn Bell and Zach O’Donnell, Wayland — Bell racked up 34 kills, many thanks to O’Donnell, who dished 48 assists in a five-set victory against BC High.

Zach Medjamia and Hank Schwartz, Andover — It was a similar story for the Golden Warriors, who got 25 kills from Medjamia and 32 assists from Schwartz in a 3-1 win over Dracut.

Jill Ondrick, Weymouth — The junior transferred to her hometown high school from Archbishop Williams and made an immediate impact with 17 strikeouts and no walks in the circle, and an RBI at the plate, in a 2-1 Bay State Conference win over Needham.

It was a powerful day across the Commonwealth, as no less than 22 hitters connected on a long ball, and we have to start with Milton Academy’s Crowley sisters. Junior Sophia Crowley launched a three-run shot, but was out-done by her freshman sister, Hannah, who blasted a grand slam.

While they were the only sisters to both go yard, they were far from the only teammates. Carver’s Lyla Moore and Gianna Chandler both left the park in an 18-16 loss to Cohasset, King Philip’s Liv Petrillo and Ali Gill went yard in a 9-1 win over Franklin, Gloucester’s Aleena Brown and Emma Carripichosa connected to beat North Reading 10-2, and BB&N’s Langan Fisher and Ryan Clay went back-to-back to beat Cushing, 10-6.

Waltham senior goalie Brooke Gaudet committed to Lasell where she will play field hockey and major in athletic training.

Richard Davis, who for years produced the Massachusetts High School Football Prospects Information book with Bob Bancroft, died on March 27 at age 80. Davis — who was voted into the Massachusetts High School Football Coaches Association Hall of Fame in 2021, becoming the only non-coach to be inducted — made sure every dollar raised from the recruiting book went to the Shriners Hospital in Boston. Davis was a longtime business teacher at Whitman-Hanson and in retirement worked part-time at Holly Ridge Golf Club in Sandwich.
