• And now for Walk A Thon News...As of today we have raised a total of $12,305 which is 49.22% of our school goal. We are halfway there and need your help to finish strong. 8th grade really made a leap this week and is closing the gap between the grades. 6th grade is still in the lead raising $4850, 7th grade in second with $3975, and 8th grade is closing in with $3480. 8th grade has never won before. If the 8th graders could pull this off they'd be the first in history!  Let's all work together to spread the word this weekend and bring in those donations for our school!

• The girls soccer team faced Illing last night and walked away with yet another win. The final score of the game was 4-0. The Lady Cougars dominated the first half. Early in the first half, Kinsley Wood passed the ball to striker Emily Ward who fired one in the back of the net. The half ended 2-0. 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. Aleksa Zajac fought hard to beat the defense and ended up with a breakaway and placed one in the back of the net. Coach B and Coach Sayed were very impressed. The girls team hosts Sage Park on Tuesday. 
  

• 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. Yelle would score 2 more times for her first hattrick of her career.  Captains Emily, Emma, Prithi, and Molly played the entire game and never looked back.  Prithi and Emily dominated the midfield while Emma and Molly held JFK's offense to only 3 shots on goal. 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.
