Taunton High School students to bring 'Grease' to life

Taunton High School students will bring the music, dancing and teenage drama of the 1950s to the stage with four performances of the musical "Grease" from Friday to Sunday, Nov. 13-15. The Taunton High School Drama Club will present the production, according to a community announcement. Set at the fictional Rydell High School, "Grease" follows teenagers as they navigate friendships, romantic relationships and the challenges of finding where they belong. The musical features familiar songs and scenes, including "Greased Lightnin'," "Beauty School Dropout," the Rydell Fight Song and the hand jive. Director Justine O'Brien, a former THSDC student, said the show's themes extend beyond its well-known music."Grease at its core is more than just catchy tunes and iconic lines,” O'Brien said. “It showcases the everyday struggles of high school cliques and trying to find the place you belong and people you belong with.” O'Brien said returning to the program as director has special meaning. The director said they feel “blessed to return now and guide students through the same formative arts education that I experienced.” According to the announcement, the drama club gives students opportunities to participate in multiple aspects of theater production, including building sets, performing and developing musical

Home-field advantage boosts Sandwich girls soccer into quarterfinals

SANDWICH — Stressful. That’s the only word that the fourth-seeded Sandwich High girls soccer coaches and players alike could find to describe Thursday’s 2-1 golden goal victory over No. 13 West Bridgewater in the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association Division 4 Round of 16. “I don’t know if I have a lot in me,” Sandwich head coach Yvonna Press said. “It was very stressful because they had their chances and we had our chances—and the wind was quite brutal.” The wind, which was whipping at 15 miles per hour from north to south across Gerald F. DeConto Veterans Memorial Stadium, made its impact felt. Gusts even surpassed 20 mph. West Bridgewater’s only goal was a direct result of the wind when the ball skipped awkwardly off the turf and over Sandwich goalkeeper Rena Mooney’s head for Sophia Hulme to fire from point-blank range into the roof of the net. The stress of trailing in the state tournament alleviated itself two minutes later after eighth grader Ginger Gaffney scored her first varsity goal to draw Sandwich level. But the tension ramped up as the minutes passed without a goal to break the deadlock. Sandwich dominated the run of play across the second

Sophomore stunt artist 'not afraid of anything' for Duxbury football

DUXBURY — Every possible yard. By any means necessary. Patrick Martin extracted all available ground in the clutch. The sophomore receiver stretched out to graze the pylon on his 17-yard touchdown reception with 58 seconds remaining, and then successfully landed a tackle-clearing hurdle on the final potential go-ahead drive, in the Duxbury High football team 's 14-13 defeat to Walpole in the Division 4 quarterfinals on Friday, Nov. 13. "He fights to the end. He's not afraid of anything," Duxbury head coach Matt Landolfi said. "Ultimate competitor." No. 5 Walpole will play top-seeded Scituate in the semifinals next week (date/time TBD). Duxbury, the bracket's No. 4 seed, turns its attention to the Thanksgiving rivalry vs. Marshfield. Martin's last-minute touchdown lifted Duxbury within a 14-13 deficit pending the PAT decision. Landolfi and staff opted for a 2-point conversion try for the lead, which was caught in the end zone by senior Nate Read but ultimately negated by an illegal shift penalty on the offense. After the loss of yards, the Dragons (7-2) pulled the offense and summoned the PAT crew. The ensuing kick was blocked by multiple Walpole defenders. "It was a mental mistake. Nobody's fault," sophomore quarterback Liam Murray said

Predicting the winner of each Week 10 High School football game in Central Mass.

Before the football season wraps up and the holidays arrive, I’d like to remind everyone that I am indeed NOT the Grinch. While I’m tasked with predicting high school football results each week , I’d like our local teams to actually win (contrary to popular belief). Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. But either way, we are here to cover you — win, lose or draw. Still, as I get greedy this time of year, I’d like to point out that I went 31-6 (!) last week amid the tricky proposition of picking playoff (and non-playoff) winners. How ‘bout them apples? So, as a reminder, while the Telegram & Gazette opens itself up to bulletin-board material , second guessing and verbal lashings, I handicap each high school football game — with no biases or bribes provided under the table — throughout the course of the 2026 season. With pencil in hand and the delete button on standby, here are my predictions for the Week 10 slate of the high school football games in the Central Mass. and Worcester this week. Last Week: 31-6 (21-3 in playoff games, 10-3 in non-playoff games) Season: 201-52 THURSDAY Haverhill at St. John’s, 6 p.m.
