• The boys cross country team hosted East Hartford in their final meet of the season. The boys were poised to protect their undefeated season. From the start, the boys flew. As they sped through Nevers Park, they were determined for a victory. Coming in hot on East Hartford's heels was sixth grader Cayden Poehnert - followed by 7th grader Evan Taylor, and then eighth grader Connor Hall. To round out TE's top five were, Brandon Willcox and Shaunak Tamhane. Elliot Wenzel had his best finish of the season; ending up in the top ten. With Sohan Gouda, Liam Hamilton, and Peyton Soran all finishing with impressive times. Walter Vautour and James Slogesky also had fantastic races! Congrats on an undefeated season, boys! Good Luck at the Crawl Championship next week. GO COUGARS!

• The girls soccer team played East Hartford yesterday afternoon. Within the first five minutes East Hartford ended up with a quick break away and we were unable to stop them. The Lady Cougars were down by one, but that did not stop Sienna DiSalvatore. Sienna came back with three quick left footed goals to make the game 3-1. Then, late in the first half, Isla Mayer was able to put the ball in the back of the net. The game ended 4-1 as the Lady Cougars were unable to score again in the second half. The girls team plays again today at Nevers against Vernon Middle School.
