• The Timothy Edwards Boy Soccer team was back on the pitch again last night traveling to East Hartford to take on the Falcons. The Cougars came out a little sluggish and it took them a while to get fully into the game. Liam Steraverov scored on an unassisted goal, then Rob Sayavong hit a laser from about 35 yards to beat the keeper. The first half finished 2–0. In the second half, the Cougars dominated possession as well as the Falcons. Two more goals put the game to bed. Haris Zhinipotoku scored off of Zack Gilbert throw in while Dennis Satar finished off across from Gilbert that made it through the keeper.  The Cougars play again on Thursday at Vernon. The team sits at 8–0-1 and is first place in the CRAL. Keep up the good work boys.
