Suggested Video

Winthrop is on a seven-game streak of home losses also dating back to last season, Marblehead a five-game streak of away losses also dating back to last season, but someone's luck is about to change on Thursday. The Winthrop Vikings will host the Marblehead Magicians at 5:30 p.m. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

Last Tuesday, Winthrop came up short against Swampscott and fell 3-1.

After all that action, the final score was 25-12, 20-25, 25-13, 25-13.

Meanwhile, Marblehead didn't have quite enough to beat Woburn Memorial on Monday and fell 3-2.

In an exciting match in which no team claimed back-to-back wins, Marblehead sadly wound up on the wrong side. Once all was said and done, the final score wound up at 25-16, 17-25, 25-21, 22-25, 15-7.

Marblehead's loss came about despite a quality game from Megan Parkman, who had 18 digs.

Winthrop might still be hurting after the 3-0 defeat they got from Marblehead in their previous meeting back in September of 2023. Will Winthrop have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
