• Matt Morelli secures overtime winner to lift Braintree over Walpole (bostonherald.com) — Walpole High’s boys hockey team dropped a tight 2-1 overtime decision to Braintree in their season opener at Zapustas Arena, despite a strong third-period rally and clutch goaltending. The Timberwolves tied it on a power-play goal and nearly won in OT, but Braintree’s Matt Morelli scored the game-winner seconds after a big Walpole scoring chance.
