As we wrap up the fall sports season, we want to congratulate all of our athletes and highlight a few of the teams:

• Congratulations to Varsity Field Hockey, our Class L State Champions! This is the sixth overall field hockey state crown and third out of the last six. 
• Congratulations to Varsity Football on a very exciting Turkey Bowl victory over the Darien Blue Wave (12-7). The win qualified our team for the CIAC playoffs. Unfortunately, the season came to an end with a disappointing loss to Darien in the semifinals.
• Congrats again to Boys Golf, our D1 State and FCIAC Champions! 
• Girls Soccer qualified for both the FCIAC and CIAC Playoffs. 
• Girls Swim and Dive finished 3rd at the Class L Championship Meet. 
• Girls Cross Country had a great championship season finishing 3rd at the FCIAC Championship Meet, 2nd at the CIAC Class L Championship and 7th in the State Open.

We are looking forward to a fantastic winter season! Winter sports and youth/high school soccer clinic registration is open on www.ncrams.com.

Ensembles will perform works by 20th-century choral composers, arrangers and poets from Latin American countries, celebrating their unique voice and musical influence. Pieces include a Mexican folk song (Dos Corazones), a Puerto Rican traditional Christmas aguinaldos (Abreme La Puerta), poems of love and protest from Argentina (Te Quiero & Indianas Suite), a Brazilian Ave Maria paired with songs from the indigenous Kraó tribe (Tres Cantos Nativos) and selections from the Broadway musical In The Heights.
