LOL! Doesn't everybody that ever lost to them?

I played at Haverhill High back in the late fifties and early sixties. Haverhill was Division I (Class A) back then and until Brockton passed them in the late seventies or early eighties, had won more Division I championships than any school in Eastern Mass (look it up).

In the spring of 1960 Brockton and Haverhill were supposed to be the two best teams in the state, so they put us together in spring training for a "live" scrimmage.

Along about the third or fourth series of plays a massive on field brawl broke out that took about twenty minutes for the coaches to quell. LOL!

Brockton beat us in the old Garden in the spring of '62 in basketball, too. The school you love to hate...
