Boston Globe Coach of Year. Couldn’t do it without my staff. 🙌🏾🏀 Culture and standards!!

Not the way we wanted to end our season, but at the same time, I can’t be any prouder of what WE have accomplished in the last two years at Masco. (42-6) The Culture has been set, and the Standards have been set high, excited for the Future of MASCO! Culture and Standards!

🏀🔥 MASCO IS FINAL FOUR BOUND! 🔥🏀 It was a historic Friday night as #3 Masco defeated #6 Burlington 61–35 to advance to the Final Four for the second consecutive year. The late venue change to Essex Tech didn’t matter. Masco’s student section showed up in force — a sea of black overflowing with energy. The STU was unbelievable and made a HUGE impact on the game from start to finish. Masco put on a defensive clinic all night. Coaches Morales and O'Connor had this team completed prepared. After averaging 82.5 points in its first two playoff wins, Burlington was held to just 13 points in the first half and finished with their lowest scoring output of the season. The Chieftains’ defense was suffocating and relentless — a complete beatdown of a very good team. There was simply no way Masco was going to be denied on this night. ⭐ Standout performances were everywhere Thomas Denton was dominant, finishing with 20 points, 11 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 steals. He attacked Burlington all night and was simply too much for them to handle. Jimmy Farrell, playing in his ninth career playoff game, controlled the game as a calm and confident floor general. He posted 17 points (9-10 FT), 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks. Freshman Benjamin Linehan had a breakout performance all 12 of his points in the second half. He had the play of the game when he snatched a deflected pass in midair and, in one motion, turned and buried a 17-footer at the third-quarter buzzer, sending the student section into an absolute frenzy. Cal “Off Night” Weidman took on the challenge of guarding one of the best players in the state, 6’6” 1,000-point scorer Matty Gray, and held him to just 11 points. Ryan Richardson was a demon defensively, playing a linebacker's relentless physicality and energy that set the tone for Masco’s suffocating defense. Matteo Steffanelli continues to thrive in his expanded role, slashing to the basket and disrupting opponents all over the defensive end. Freshman Owen Hannigan also made key contributions, including an offensive rebound that he kicked out to Denton for an early three that helped set the tone. ⏭️ Next Up Masco will face the winner of #2 Pope Francis vs. #7 Oliver Ames, who play today at PM. The Final Four game is expected to be Tuesday or Wednesday at the Tsongas Center in Lowell.

Masconomet 61, Burlington 35 was the final. Thomas Denton 20 pts, 11 rebounds, 3 blocks 2 steals, a maestro like 17 with 7 boards and a bunch of dimes for Jimmy Farrell and 12 for Benjamin Linehan. Words can't describe how good this team defense had to be to hold Burly to 35

Back to back Final Four🏀

Masco opens the postseason with a convincing 78–50 home win over Middleborough. Tied at halftime, the Chieftains came out of the locker room on a mission — exploding for a 25–5 third quarter fueled by relentless team defense. Contributions were everywhere. ⭐ Senior Jimmy Farrell stuffed the stat sheet with 21 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, and 4 steals — including a steal that led to a transition dunk. 💪 Junior Thomas Denton was a force inside and out with 20 points and 18 rebounds. 🎯 Jack Arnold buried four threes — including three straight — to blow the game open in the third. 🔒 Ryan Richardson was an absolute dog defensively, creating chaos and forcing turnovers. 🛠️ Freshman Owen Hannigan brought his hard hat with 7 boards and 4 points, and fellow freshman Benjamin Linehan chipped in 5 points. Next up: Tuesday, March 3 at 6:00 PM — back at Masco against #14 seed Nashoba Regional Farrell - 21 pts. Denton - 20 Arnold - 12 Richardson, Linehan - 5 O. Hannigan, Stefanelli - 4 Doherty - 3 Green, Weidman - 2
