A year apart in age, there are plenty of similarities between Medfield (Mass.) High School standouts Alex and Kelly Blake.
Just not the one many people think.
The two high-scoring standouts who share a surname, one of them (Alex) who’s already committed to Northwestern and the other (Kelly) who was fielding Division 1 recruiting calls earlier this month, are a lot of things: teammates, state champions, All-Americans and close friends. They even favor each other physically.
But they’re not sisters. They’re not even related, though they’ve played that up in the past for a laugh.
