The varsity boys opened their season with a four-game winning streak - two of them shutouts - and are showing no signs of slowing down. With what the Journal Opinion called the Panthers’ “high-powered offense” (great photos in last week’s edition) and sophomore Matthew McGovern guarding the net, the boys have been scoring well - and not letting much through. Next up, the Panthers travel to Hazen, then take on Lake Region at home this Saturday at 11:00 a.m. Learn who’s on the team- and follow the Panthers on Scorebook Live for game schedule and scores.  On the girls side, the...

For the Thetford community, the event is an annual gathering of neighbors and a reunion of...

The Panther harriers kicked off their season last Tuesday with a meet at Bellows Falls. Coaches Deffner and Silver were delighted to see 10 runners for the girls team toe the starting line and to see those same ten girls finish a rather challenging course. Having 12 girls on the team (two did not race) was particularly exciting, given the fact that in May, the team only had 3 confirmed runners. But Coach Silver presented an energetic and enticing video at a spring assembly, and Coach Deffner interviewed graduating members of the team about what the sport has meant to...
