• The first day of baseball tryouts was ten weeks ago on March 28th. It was 32 degrees on a blustery, early spring afternoon, but Coach S and Coach Wilkinson knew the future Cougar baseball team was destined for greatness. Fast forward to June 6th...81 degrees and not a cloud in the sky - a perfect day for a ballgame.  Not just a ball game, but the CRAL Championship Baseball Game.  If you like an old fashioned pitcher's duel then you should have been one of the 300 strong at Rotary Field on Monday afternoon as Illing of Manchester faced off against your TE Cougars.  The ball was given to Brayden Edwards who has been the workhorse of the Cougar pitching staff all year, notching 4 victories on the season.  He did not disappoint, striking out 7 of the first 10 batters he faced through 3 innings.  On the offensive side, TE had their chances in the third inning, but they left the bases loaded in the frame.  Edwards continued to dominate on the mound, not allowing a hit through 5 innings.  The Cougars continued to put runners on base, but could not plate a runner until the bottom of the 5th inning.  Ryder Haynes reached second base on a throwing error and it was about time for the Cougars to take the lead.  With 2 outs, up stepped Evan Westfall to the plate.  Westfall already had a single on the day and on a 2 ball count, he ripped a single to the outfield, scoring Haynes from second base.  TE 1  Illing 0.  In the top of the 6th, Edwards gave up his first hit of the game and with Illing trying to tie up the score, Haynes made a dazzling catch in foul territory to end the threat.  In the bottom of the 6th, the Cougars threatened again, but once more left the bases loaded to end the inning.  Top of the 7th...Illing's worst nightmare steps to the mound again as the Ram's leadoff hitter steps to the plate.  Edwards proceeded to strike out the side and seal the Championship victory for the Cougars as the team rushed the mound to congratulate each other!!  Final score  - Cougars 1   Rams 0.  On the afternoon Edwards struck out 15 of the 21 batters he faced and he also added 2 hits in the victory.  Westfall had 2 singles and the only RBI while Liam Davis chipped in with a single.  Ryan Hubbard continued to get on base, drawing 2 walks in the contest.  Aiden Jackson caught the entire game and he called a great game for TE.  The coaching staff is incredibly proud of the boys!  They finished the season with an 8 game winning streak and an overall record of 11 wins and 2 losses.  Congratulations on a great season!!!

• If you have yet to return your TE Library Books, please do so as soon as possible- they were all due on Tuesday, 6/7.  If you are not sure if you have an overdue book, please check your Gmail account, as this is how students are now notified they have overdue books.  Also, if you see any library books sitting in your classroom or in the hallway, please return them to the library media center. Current 6^th and 7^th graders who would like to check out TE library books over the summer will be able to do so on Monday, 6/13 to Wednesday 6/15 during regular school hours.  In order to do so,  please come to the LMC with your permission slip signed by a parent or guardian.  I have copies of this permission slip in the library; you can come and see me for one, or print one off the main TE LMC page.
