They are brothers.  Mike spent his freshman year at Burlington High School, then
transferred to Saint Sebastian's after he blew away the Middlesex League
competition.  When he was at St. Seb's two years ago, Mike was already bigger than
Jay.  Mike will attend BU in the fall, but according to an article in the Sunday
Boston Globe, his options open for the future are wide open.
 
BTW, Jay and Mike's maternal grandfather is a member of Northeastern's Hall of
Fame.  Mr. Byrne once scored five goals in one game for the Huskies.  I had the
pleasure of sitting with him (and the rest of the Pandolfo family, including Mike)
when he was alive during Jay's Terrier career in Section 10 of Walter Brown
Arena.  He was a wonderful gentleman who took great pride in his grandson's
accomplishments.
