Melrose has a very rich hockey tradition
dating back to the mid 1950s. Coach Henry Hughes had much success, winning
New England Championships in 1950, 1956, and 1962. State Championships
were won in 1952 and 1962. Melrose also dominated the GBL in the 50’s and
early 60’s and then the Middlesex League in winning some thirteen league
titles between 1960 and 1976.
Notable players such as Paul Hurley ’63 (BC), former coach James Umile ’62
(Providence), Charlie Holden ’62 (Harvard) Paul Powers ’73 (UNH), Tim
Burke ’73 (UNH), Daryl MacCleod ’76 (BU), Larry Abbot ’69 (BU), Andy
Brickley ’80 (UNH) and many more wore the red and white while at MHS with
much pride. Many of those players went on to professional careers after
graduation.
The Red Raider teams of today are working hard to carry on this proud
hockey heritage.
