  • The lady Cougars faced off against fierce opponents Tolland in their home opener yesterday afternoon. The game proved to be a tough match against a strong opponent as the Cougars lost 5-0. In the first half, the Cougar's tried to get a rhythm as Abby Peruccio and Emerson Iacovelli linked together numerous passes. Amazing defensive performances came from Megan Martin, Sidney Montana, Hailey Testa, and Huntyr Courtois. Rounding out the wing backs was Anna Matus and Chion Pollard, who with the support of the Haley Butler in goal, helped hold Tolland to only 1 goal by halftime. In the second half, Lexi Lilly, Emily Ledger, Katelyn Roux, and Sarah Gordon created a handful of chances, and did an amazing job pressuring the Tolland defense. The Cougars displayed hustle throughout the second half with great tackles from 6th grader's Elise Suffish and Ritika Abburi. Additional opening day highlights came from Leighana Ferrabelo, Mikayla Evans, and Iniya Raja, as the trio helped to halt countless Tolland attacks. Goalkeeper's Haley Butler and Catherine Downes totaled 14 saves on the day. Overall, it was a hard-fought game for the Cougars as they look forward to their first away game on Thursday at 3:30 against Illing. 
  • The Boys Soccer team were in action last night taking on Tolland. The boys came out a touch flat allowing the Falcons time and space thus leading to four goals for the opponent. TE picked it up in the second half led by Xavier Crane and Aadi Dey. Scoring for the cougars was Dey from the penalty spot and Kiran Francis on a follow up in front of the goal. Next game for TE is Thursday after school.
  • Today for lunch... In the Create line you can have Cheese Bread Sticks. In the Grill line you can have Meatball Sub and in the On the Go line you can have your choice of deli sandwiches. Have a great day, do your best and remember to always strive for 5!

  • Today looks like another wonderful day but how long will it last, let's take a look at your forecast. Today temperatures will be just around eighty degrees with some clouds in the morning hours but then sun for the rest of the day. It looks like we can finally see a hint of fall in our forecast because temperatures will be dropping into the mid to low seventies by the end of the week. Tonight temperatures will be in the upper sixties but as we continue the week it looks like our low temperatures will be dropping into the fifties. We will be seeing sunny skies today but then we will be dealing with the remnants of Hurricane Florence which will bring some heavy downpours on Tuesday but then we will be seeing sunny skies on Wednesday again. Jordan Cosman TETV Morning News, guys, back to you.

  • Today looks like the last hot day for a little while, let's take a look at your 7 day forecast. Today temperatures will be in the mid nineties with mostly sunny skies for the first part of the day but then we are expecting severe thunderstorms in the afternoon which is why we have issued a excessive heat warning for the entire day, other than the heat the humidity will be off the charts. After today temperatures will be dropping into the low seventies maybe even the sixties on Monday but then some heat will return by Tuesday. Temperatures will be in the upper sixties tonight but after that the lows will be dropping significantly. We are watching the potential for some rain showers on Monday and Tuesday but other than that it will be pretty sunny. Jordan Cosman TETV Morning News, guys, back to you.
