Governor Patrick, Sen. Finegold Congratulate Girls Basketball Team

This press release was provided by the office of Governor Deval Patrick.

Governor Deval Patrick and Sen. Barry Finegold last week congratulated the Andover High School Division I State Championship girls basketball team during their visit to the State House.

“I am proud to congratulate these talented players on winning the State Championship,” said Governor Patrick. “This title is a testament to their teamwork, dedication and passion for the game and each other.”   

The Andover High School Girls basketball team, the Golden Warriors, won the Massachusetts Division I State Championship by defeating Holyoke on March 17. This marks the third consecutive state title for the Golden Warriors, a feat accomplished by only a handful of high school teams before them, and most recently by the Charlestown High School boys team in 2000. The Golden Warriors went undefeated this season.
