• The Lady Cougars hit the hardwood for the first time after the holiday break and they did not disappoint. Taking on the Ellington Wildcats in a CRAL border war, the Lady Cougars were up to the challenge.  TE jumped out to an early lead after Madison Carpenter and Shea Brochu each hit a three early in the quarter.  16 points in the quarter seemed like the Lady Cougars had things in hand, but the Wildcats were right in the game with 13 of their own. Maria Puniello was focused from the start and helped the Lady Cougars build their lead with 4 points early in the half.  The game was back and forth early on, though TE held a 26-21 lead going into halftime.  TE put their foot on the gas and stretched their lead to 11 in the third as Olivia Dzubin hit a big three to stretch the lead.  Puniello, with a career high, and Brochu led the team with 8 points each, while Elise Glunt rebounded everything and attacked the rim for 6 points of her own.  Carpenter finished with 5 points, Mia Haynes chipped in four, while Alex Gogic and Emmi Tushe had 2 points each. The final score was 41-37 but the game was never really in question. Great job ladies and good luck today against JFK.

• The boys basketball team beat Ellington Middle School 55-24 yesterday improving their record to 2-1.   Led by a balanced scoring attack and a stifling defense, the Cougars cruised to a victory.  The Cougars play today at home against Enfield.
