• The TEMS Boys soccer team played East Hartford last Thursday night and pulled away in the end to ensure a 4-1 victory over the Falcons.  Dalton Crane scored the first tally of the game, when he struck his freekick towards goal.  Even though it took a massive deflection, it was still on target and he gets credited for the finish.  East Hartford snuck back in to the game with a solo effort, from one of the regions best players, making it 1-1 at half time. At halftime, Coach Chandler addressed the players and they came out firing on all cylinders.  About 10 minutes into the half, the Cougars got their second when Mo Rahman headed home a cross from Logan Jackson.  Ahan Karnik matched Rahman's header with one of his own, making the score to 3-1.  Haris Zhinipotoku was credited with the assist. Dillon Leacu, was back on the score sheet too, his first since the start of the season as he placed a cheeky little chip over the head of the keeper.  Mohamed Merzougui got the assist, his first point of the season.  The Cougars play hose once again when they welcome the Patriots of JFK on Tuesday after school.  Come out and cheer on the boys.

In the second half, Sienna DiSalvatore crossed the ball in and  8th grader Shea Brochu had a beautiful header that landed in the back of the net. We didn't stop there.

• The TEMS Boys soccer team hosted Illing last night and secured the victory 4-0.  Yet another shutout for the defense and the goalkeeper, Aniron Pal.  The Cougars were dominant the entire game, but could only muster one goal in the first half.  Haris Zhinipotoku served a ball into the box and after it bounded around in the mixer, AJ Bryson pounced and pushed it across the line for the 1-0 lead.  Coach Chandler rallied the troops in the second and the Cougars scoring continued.  Garren Kerachsky did just enough to get his effort over the end line.  Their keeper made a diving save to keep it out, but the referee gave it a goal in the end.  Matteo Heredia pulled a Lloyd Christmas and "totally redeemed himself" getting on the end of a Aaron Cherian cross to make it 3-0.  Finally, Doug Quiuqui was past his marker on the wing and crossed a gem of a pass to Zayd Sebro, who calmly walked around two defenders and buried his shot to the back post rounding out the scoring.  The Cougars are off till next Tuesday when they travel to Windsor to play the Sage Park Chargers.
  

• The TE field hockey team came away with a great win against JFK of Enfield by a score of 3-0. TE came out strong with a quick goal by the speedy Tori Yelle.

Coach Ainslee Deptula motivated the team to its 3rd win.  Vanessa "Pasta" Primavera showed tremendous determination and aggressive play on the right side of the field.  In the second game TE came away with a 2-0 loss.  Playing well for the Cougars was Reagan Burnham, Ipshita Singh, Anika Bansal, Anisha Prakash and Diya Arvind.  TE's next game is Monday is away in Granby.

• The Timothy Edwards boys soccer team battled Ellington to a 0–0 tie last night. The game was played on a Postage stamp of a field, and the ball was back-and-forth the entire match. Aniron Pal held the Wildcats scoreless with a solid back line in front of him in Dalton Crane, Dave Nice, and Logan Jackson. The Cougars controlled much of the match but couldn’t find a way past the Wildcat defense. The Cougars host Illing on a Thursday after school.

• Hey everyone, ever want to slime someone. Well we have a chance to slime Officer Owens if we raise enough money in the Walkathon. We are off to a great start raising over $6500, but need to work together to raise $30,000 so we can see Officer Owens covered in Red, Blue, and Green. Share your Walkathon information with family and friends over this long weekend. The students who raise the most money from each grade will get the honor of pouring the slime.

• The field hockey team rebounded from their loss against JFK with a big 4-1 win over Mabel Avery Middle School of Somers. Scoring first for the Cougars was Lilah Boldic with an assist from Joanna Halle. Joanna then scored the second and third goal of the game with an assist from Ainslee Deptula. Ainslee then scored the fourth goal. Emma Davis worked hard as the lone defender helping Meg Aparo in goal to hold Somers to one goal. Allie Scott took a break from playing goalie to do a great job controlling the midfield. Shout out to Diya Arvind, Evie Beaulieu, Sarah Bonanno and Sahashra Natti for great teamwork throughout the game. The Cougars play again next Thursday against JFK at home. Come on out to support the team!!
