North High was the best team in the state the Monday after Thanksgiving, the best team on the last day and every day between. Not easy to do.

I am now declaring that I am a graduate of Worcester North High School. Didn't seem important until "my" Polar Bears made it to the MIAA Division 1 title game. Never too late to board the bandwagon!
