It's Mystery Picture Time.
It's Mystery Picture Time.
Baby-boomers and older, too,
Take a look and tell us who.
Obviously, this group of girls is a field hockey team, and obviously the team represented then Morton Junior High School.
So the mystery to solve involves identifying the players, the school year and sharing some information about how well the team did. And maybe even tell us about what some of these girls went on to accomplish athletically, or non-athletically. Let it rip.

• Dave Driscoll of Somerset, the former longtime head football coach at Dighton-Rehoboth and a Somerset High Athletics hall of famer, has very fond memories of former Somerset High director of athletics, Al Estes, who died this past spring at age 86.
Estes was also the director of physical education for the Somerset School Department and one of the first things he did in that role was to implement square dancing into the phys-ed curriculum. Driscoll was in junior high school at that time, and as an old-school football/basketball/baseball guy, he was not enthused about square dancing in phys-ed class.
But, as things progressed, Driscoll and many other students learned that, believe it or not, square dancing was pretty cool. Excellent exercise. And fun. Somerset students took to it so well that Estes brought a group of them, including the then-nimble Driscoll, to a phys-ed leaders' gathering in Boston to do a square dance demo.
There was far more to Estes (a Durfee High Athletics hall of famer) than square dance advocacy. Driscoll said Al Estes was a top-notch guy, one of the people he most admired in his 50 decades in and around high school sports.
