Members of the Watertown High School boy’s lacrosse team took the field last week with a special honor for fallen Boston Firefighter and Watertown native Edward Walsh.

The team all put the message “LT. EW 33” on a piece of athletic tape and put it on their helmets during the game against Belmont.

Lt. Walsh graduated from Watertown High School in 1989 and worked on Boston Engine 33 when he died fighting a fire in the Back Bay.
