As the season for the boys freshman soccer team came to a close, the boys ended their season with a strong five win, nine loss, and two tie record. But, in the end, they left with customized CRLS soccer warm-up jackets.

Throughout the week leading up to the CRLS boys varsity football homecoming game, the buzz about the game and the events around it were heard in the CRLS hallways. “Who’s gonna win?” “What’s the word tonight?” “Who do you think is gonna win Homecoming Queen?” Up until the homecoming game, the football team had only won one game. This was a crucial game for the team in order to keep their playoff hopes alive. However, their opponent, Westford Academy, was in a similar position. They had only won two games up until the game, and they were looking for a third. The homecoming game was shaping up to be a good one.

At a high school cross country meet, the standard racing distance is five km, or 3.1 miles. The first 200 meters of the race is chaos, as runners try to pull ahead of the big herd at the start line. As the runners settle into place, their focus switches to maintaining a lead and passing as many runners as possible. Courses of the meets are diverse, with some being wooded areas while others are paved in a more populated area.
