• We are back celebrating Black History Month. Today we recognize the 369th infantry regiment of the New York Army National Guard during World War I better known as the Harlem Hellfighters. The Hellfighters were the most celebrated African-American regiment in World War I and confronted racism even as they trained for war. They helped bring jazz music to France and then battled Germany longer than almost any other American soldiers. Like their predecessors in the Civil War and successors in the wars that followed, these African-American troops fought a war for a country that refused them basic rights. Their bravery stood as a rebuke to racism and a moral claim to first-class citizenship.

• Welcome back to another edition of TETV Morning News.   Today is Tuesday, February 21.

• Last Wednesday night, the Lady Cougars traveled to Suffield to play for the CRAL Championship.  The first quarter was one to forget as the Lady Cougars were not able to get into the game and fell behind early.  In the second quarter, TE 'clawed' their way back into the contest and were only down six, as the score was 17-11 at intermission.  Shea Brochu was a girl possessed all night as she and Keira Dietelbaum had the only points for the Lady Cougars in the first half.  After a very long intermission, TE came out firing on all cylinders in the second half.  Kai Grate, Emery Forko, and Brochu stepped it up and cut the lead to 5 going into the fourth quarter.  TE erupted for 16 points in the quarter and ran the clock out as Suffield was trying to foul.  Teagan Purcell contributed a couple significant buckets to keep the Lady Wildcats at bay.  In the end, it was Brochu's dominance on the offensive end and her hypnotic ball handling at the end of the game that secured the victory for the Lady Cougars.  Suffield was forced to foul and the Cougars were able to run out the clock effectively which led to the Lady Cougars taking home the hardware.  As it stands, the TEMS Lady Cougars are crowned the 2022-2023 CRAL Champions with a 37-33 victory.  Congratulations ladies.  Way to go!

• The Lady Cougars hosted the first round of the CRAL playoffs last night taking on the JFK Lady Patriots from Enfield.  The first half was hotly contested though Emery Forko gave the Lady Cougars a very important 3 point lead going into half time.  She beat the buzzer with a 3 of her own sending the crowd into a frenzy.  The halftime score was 21-18.  In the second half, Teagan Purcell, Kai Grate and Shea Brochu lead the charge and extended the lead by four, 29-22, going into the 4th quarter.  The fourth quarter required the Lady Patriots to play man to man and TEMS took advantage with quick ball handing and smart finishes on the fast break.  With 7 different players scoring, the final score was 43-33.  The Lady Cougars will face the winner of the Ellington/Suffield game also being played today.  Good luck ladies.
