Adriana Santoriello
Freshman
Softball

THIS WEEK’S Melrose High Athlete of the Week was on fire for the Melrose High softball team, when she scored a career-high seven RBIs against Watertown, helping Melrose blank the Raiders, 20-5. Freshman Adriana Santoriello led the brigade with two, three-run homers and, earlier in the week, took to the mound against Saugus, striking out 5 and batting 2 for 3. It’s been a great start for this freshman, and there will be more wins from her in the years ahead. Congrats to Adriana and her team for solid victory! (Photo courtesy of Cameron Ahern Judge)

The Residence at Melrose Station recently welcomed Melrose Girl Scout Troop #66716 for a “Hope Garden Creations” workshop, where scouts and residents came together for a hands-on activity centered on kindness and creativity. As part of their Media Journey and “Take Action Project,” the troop partnered with residents to paint kindness rocks — each featuring messages of hope and encouragement — that will be placed in the senior living community’s garden and around Melrose for others to discover.
