Worcester Academy head coach Jamie Sullivan made a calculated decision a few years back when he opted to invest in his program’s future by bringing in primarily underclassmen as opposed to chasing post-graduates.

Put it all together, and MacDuffie is the program that many are calling the favorites in Class AA to start the season. The Returners It all starts with the senior duo…
