There were plenty of highlights throughout the Central Mass. boys’ soccer scene last week, and Tim Dumas picked a few of the best for readers to vote on to decide the Hometeam Boys’ Soccer Player of the Week.
Congratulations to Fitchburg’s Yamil Quinones-Baez for taking the top spot in last week’s poll topping Bay Path’s Alan Kulpa and Millbury’s Jase Welch.
These picks were selected from performances reported by area coaches to the Hometeam Scoreboard. Coaches or administrators are encouraged to report game results and highlights each night by calling the T&G sports desk at 508-793-9350 or emailing [email protected].
