In last year’s Division 3 Super Bowl, Dartmouth narrowly edged Melrose 14-7. But this year, the odds are in Melrose’s favor. The team is older, more seasoned, and they will look to inflict damage with their dynamic rushing attack.
Standout running back Mike Pedrini will look to lead the way for Melrose’s ground game. Quarterback Julian Nyland also presents a dangerous threat out of the backfield, as does running back Jay Tyler.
