The boys basketball teams had their first games on Monday night at home against Holbrook. A Team played a very fast paced game but were unable to bring home the win. Derrick C was our top scorer of the game with 15 points. Some strong defence was played by Landon M., Simon K and Steve M. Our B team played a hard game with great communication and teamwork. Baskets were made by Ben T., Conner M., Joe M., and Weston M. Overall, both teams played well and we look forward to the rest of the season!

Yesterday afternoon the Milford Chess Team hosted Holbrook Middle School in our first meet of the season. Holbrook came out swinging, and put up some stiff competition against our hometown heroes. Unfortunately, the efforts of the Milford Chess Team were not quite enough to close out a victory, with the final score being Milford - 15, Holbrook - 45.

Some highlights from the meet:
Braydon M. had the highest overall score with a total of 6/10 possible points
Alec M. had a rough start to the meet in round 1, but managed to pull back only letting Holbrook take one more game from him
Owen D. managed to deny Holbrook the victory in two of his games, forcing ties and breaking their momentum.

Overall, the Milford Chess Team showed great perseverance in the face of an incredibly tough opponent, and we’re looking forward to taking some lessons from this loss to come back with an even stronger showing at the next one. Keep up the good work, team!

Early release reminder...

The cheerleaders were excited to cheer for the boys first home game last night! Go wildcats!

Our girls' basketball players traveled to Holbrook last night. Despite both teams having a tough start to their games, they both came out fighting stronger in the second halves. Paisley M. was the top scorer for the A team with 14 points, and some strong defense was played by Ava F. Baskets were made by Paige K. and Abby Q. for the B team. Our girls played hard the entire game and showed some great sportsmanship.
