• Congratulations to the girls cross country team on winning their first official meet Wednesday night.  The girls ran away with 2 victories at the tri-meet with a perfect score of 15-50 against both East Hartford and Windsor.  The secret to success was strong teamwork during the race as many pushed a little harder by running with a teammate.  Taking first in the race was Lavanya Rathore in a time of 15:25 on the 2 mile course followed closely by Izzy Carpenter in 2nd overall within a fraction of a second.  A job well done to Akithmi Koththigoda, the only 6th grader to break into the top 7 finishers.  Also looking strong was Jewel Jones and Erin Fang who moved up several spots within the team rankings.  The Cougars look forward to their next home meet this Tuesday against Ellington.  Good luck team!

• The TE boys soccer team traveled to Enfield last night to take on the JFK patriots in a CRAL match up. The two teams battled back-and-forth with TE taking the lead midway through the first half. Chris Maio slid home a nice feed from Junior Heredia to put the cougars on top. The second half, with the wind in their faces, proved to be more of a challenge for the Cougars. The Patriots continued to press and their efforts allowed them to score a goal midway through the second half. The two teams battled back and forth the remainder of the half but no one could put one away. Fran Linares made a timely save with about 5 minutes left to keep the game level.  The Cougars play next Tuesday against East Hartford away.
  

• The Lady Cougars kicked off against JFK for a 1-1 draw yesterday afternoon. JFK found the back of the net early, but the Cougar defense held strong with great effort from Gabby Salvatore, Evelyn Castro, and Jenna Martin. The ladies rallied back in the second half with a corner kick from Kylah Wood that found the leg of Teagan Purcell to tie up the game. Throughout the match, outstanding performance from Pratheeka Dyava, Hailey Olints, and Madeline Edwards as they helped secure the draw. Overall, a strong performance from the team as they maintain their undefeated record.
