Wrestlers bow to NA, Holliston, Hudson, but beat Watertown

Swim teams get back on track

For the last few weeks, members of the CHS girls’ and boys’ varsity swim teams have made plenty of individual progress, consistently improving their respective times in the pool. But these personal achievements did not always translate to team-wide success.  It did last Friday, however, as both teams faced Norton and Foxboro at Wheaton College. […]

CHS girls’ relay track teams excel at state meet

The CHS girls’ track team tied for third place in the state Class III relays January 17 at the Reggie Lewis Track Center in Boston.

Icemen tie Mansfield with 3 late goals

Down by three in the final period against a good Mansfield team and in real danger of falling out of contention for the Hockomock title, the CHS boys’ varsity hockey team could have easily thrown in the towel and accepted its second defeat in as many games. Instead, the Bulldogs stormed back to life, scoring […]

Boys’ hoop drops 2 of 3 in frustrating week

Anyone who saw the last three games of the CHS boys’ basketball team had to come away frustrated.

Certainly CHS head […]

Relay teams finish strong in state meet

Last weekend went well for the CHS boys’ indoor track relay teams as the 4×200 and 4×800 groups both qualified for the Class C State Meet, finishing among the top seven teams in the state relay event.

The CHS varsity girls’ and boys’ swim teams were not able to pick up victories last week in meets against King Philip or Mansfield, but as has been the case throughout the course of the season, many swimmers were able to make individual strides.
