"Coming out of the History Department at MCLA, and also having spent three years working on the Student Government Association (SGA), I had hoped to continue to pursue my interests and get a job working in government. I had been to the State House a few times for Student Lobby days, and had been in touch with my local representatives all throughout school, so after graduation, this was certainly to my advantage, as I now work on Beacon Hill."

Championships.Coach Paquette is also very active in the County adult
leagues as a player and an administrator.His
teams have won several championships in Division A competition, and he currently
serves as an Executive Committee board member.
“I
am very excited about our prospects for next season.With our record improving each year, we are gathering more momentum as a
solid volleyball program, and are attracting a higher level of recruit.In-coming players this year are already well seasoned through their
participation in Junior Olympics and other club organizations.It will be exciting to mix that talent with returning players to run a
much quicker and sophisticated offense while maintaining a defense that plays
together as a unit, being very stingy in giving up any easy points.”
