After a season that flew by, the Vikes checked off the 2024-25 regular season with a solid 5-3 record, marking another competitive year for the program. Their only losses came against tough opponents—Newburyport, Lynnfield, and a close, controversial game against North Reading. Despite their winning record, the Vikings narrowly missed the playoffs, due largely to the MIAA playoff system, which factors in opponents’ ratings. Wins against a few lower-ranked teams impacted the Vikes’ chances, ultimately costing them a playoff run.
Even without a playoff spot, the Vikings are determined to finish strong in the consolation bracket, intending to go 8-3. If they succeed, they’ll notch the program’s second-best record since 2016-17, when they finished 9-3. This week, they kick off their consolation journey at home against Medford, a Division 4 team that also holds a 5-3 record. Expect a competitive matchup as the Vikings look to bring their season to a close with pride, momentum, and anger.
As of 11/12/2024, the Vikings finished the game with an astounding 53-16 score, marking the second-highest-scoring game in Triton history.
