Not many places in New England have produced as many college prospects in recent memory as Everett. A lot of those players came under coaches John DiBiaso and Theluxon Pierre, but current head man Rob DiLoreto has kept the tradition going. Currently, DiLoreto has someone who is one of the top players in the region. That is wide receiver and defensive back Christian Zamor, who is verbally committed to Boston……

Holy Cross struck with a big local commitment from Carlo Crocetti, who announced the pledge on Twitter Tuesday. Crocetti, out of the 2023 class, did a post-grad year at Loomis Chaffee after a strong career at Xaverian.

He is an above average run blocker who can create match up problems for defenses in 11……
