Win streak ends at 9 for girls’ soccer team

When perfection is a realistic possibility, even a scoreless draw against a first-place team can be considered a setback — and that was certainly the feeling among players and coaches on the CHS girls’ soccer team as the Bulldogs settled for a 0-0 tie against Franklin last Wednesday night at home. In a way, the […]

Boys’ soccer still unbeaten after brutal 2-game stretch

Faced with its toughest test of the season with back-to-back road games against the top two teams in the Kelly-Rex Division, the unbeaten but suddenly hobbled CHS boys’ soccer team looked like two different teams last week — one that pulled out a gutsy 1-0 win over Attleboro and another that “fell apart” down the […]

Canton journalist recalls a lifetime of adventures

It’s the stuff most people only read about, but for 40-plus years during the tumultuous 20th century, Canton resident Bernard C. Redmont enjoyed a front-row seat to some of the most significant events in modern world history. He was in Russia, traveling on a Pulitzer fellowship as a freelance journalist, when the Second World War […]

Girls’ soccer hits midpoint with perfect record

With last Tuesday’s 6-0 blowout win over Stoughton at home, the CHS girls’ varsity soccer team has now reached the midpoint of the season without so much as a blemish on its overall record.

Red-hot field hockey team still undefeated at 7-0

It was another easy win for the CHS field hockey team last week as the Bulldogs overcame a slow start to take care of Stoughton 3-0 at Memorial Field. Senior captain Cady Kelly led the way, scoring two goals in the win to give her five over the past two weeks. Fellow senior Hailey Gaughan […]

Boys’ soccer pummels Stoughton, Westport to remain unbeaten

Call it a tune-up before this week’s main event against Attleboro and Franklin, but the CHS boys’ soccer team looked nothing short of spectacular last week in consecutive 4-0 wins over Stoughton and nonleague Westport. Led by senior captain Chris Murray, the Bulldogs put on a goal-scoring clinic against both teams, netting all eight goals […]

Volleyball team blows past Sharon, Stoughton

Aside from a single loss to league powerhouse North Attleboro, the CHS varsity volleyball team has quietly strung together victory after victory this season and currently leads the Davenport Division with an overall record of 7-1. Two of those wins came on consecutive days last week as the Bulldogs demolished fellow leaguemates Sharon and Stoughton […]

Food Pantry co-director to step down after 6 years

When Mary Ellen Hudner first signed on as co-director of the Canton Food Pantry, she did so with minimal expectations and with no idea how long it would last. Nearly six years and hundreds of volunteer hours later, Hudner still returns every Wednesday to open the pantry’s doors and still makes regular shopping trips to […]

Girls’ soccer team knocks off champs to take over 1st place

After cruising through the first two weeks of the season with six victories in six games, the CHS girls’ varsity soccer team faced its toughest test to date last Friday at Oliver Ames and still made it look easy, beating the Tigers 3-0 to capture sole possession of first place in the Hockomock’s Davenport Division. […]

Boys’ soccer alone atop division after beating OA

Other than a speed bump on Wednesday against King Philip, the CHS boys’ soccer team kept rolling right along last week, earning shutout victories over North Attleboro and Oliver Ames to remain unbeaten at 4-0-3 overall.
