SPORTS WEEKLY
TRIVIA: Who is the only
major league baseball player
to lead his league in
home runs, RBIs, batting
average, and stolen bases in
the same year? Answer
appears elsewhere in this
column.
•SENIOR FORWARD
ELISE
CAIRA
( W A K E FIELD,
MASS ./ARLINGTON
CATHOLIC HS) scored 18
points and claimed a dozen
rebounds as the Bentley
University women's basketball
team, ranked 24th in
Division II, extended its winning
streak to eight with a 63-
48 win over the University of
Bridgeport last Wednesday
afternoon in the opening
game of the Southern New
Hampshire University Holiday
Classic at the SNHU Field
House.
Bentley, returning to action
after a nine-day holiday
break, shook off early rust to
improve to 8-1 on the year
while Bridgeport fell to 3-7.
An early 13-2 run staked
Bentley to a 15-6 advantage
midway through the first half
and the Falcons never gave up
the lead the rest of the way
(although the Purple Knights
did cut the advantage to one
at 17-16). Ten of the 13 were
scored in the paint.
Bentley went into the halftime
brealc up ten at 28-18, due
in large part to a late run of 11
unanswered points that was
fueled by sophomore guard
Courtney Finn (Winthrop,
Mass./Winthrop HS). After
the Purple Knights had all but
erased the Falcon lead, a layup
by Caira and two free
throws by senior guard Kim
Brennan (Locust Velley,
N.Y/Locust Valley HS) started
the surge.
Bentley piled up 38 points
S &
|1OMENEWS[1ERE.COII
in the paint with Caira's 16
two more than Bridgeport
amassed as a team. Caira finished
8 of 13 from the field and
collected a third of her 12
rebounds at the offensive end.
•Jesse Todd (Camrose,
AB) scored 2:34 into overtime,
giving the 17th-ranked
Merrimack hockey team the
come-from-behind 2-1 victory
over Army last Thursday
night at the T^te Rink.
Right off the draw 2:20
into the extra frame,
Stephane Da Costa (Paris,
France) won the faceoff and
worked it to the net, where
Todd swatted at it, but it
was turned aside by Jay
Clark. But the unit of Todd,
Da Costa and Chris Barton
(Calgary, AB) kept working,
and Todd got his own
rebound and fired it past
Clark, who was out of position,
for the game-winner,
his seventh tally of the year
"That's a hard-working
team," Merrimack head
coach Mark Dennehy said
of the Black Knights. "They
should be. They're in
incredible shape, and the
game was taking shape they
way they wanted it to take
shape. There was a lot of
hand-to-hand combat."
With the victory,
Merrimack remained
unbeaten in non-conference
action, improving to 3-0-1
this season.
Following a 25-day layoff,
the Warriors struggled for
much of the first two periods,
only to be saved by
JUNIOR GOALTENDER
JOE CANNATA
(WAKEFIELD. MA).
Cannata made 21 stops
through two periods, including
a 2-on-O stop on Cody
Omilusik midway through
the first period.
The Black Knights drew
first blood as Dube fired a

Hi! My name is Jonique. I want to be a nurse when I grow iq)!
Jonique is a sweet, smart 14-year-old girl of Cape Verdean and
Caucasian descent. While she tends to be quiet at first, and needs time
to warm up to new people, once she feels comfortable, she shares her
beautiful smile and good sense of humor Jonique is in the eighth
grade where her favorite subject is science She hopes to be a nurse
when she grows up, and enjoys taking French for a second language
In her spare time, Jonique likes to read, draw and watch television.
She really hkes the Harry Potter series. Jonique would like more opportunities
to try activities such as going swimming, singing, and act
ing. In her foster home, Jonique is generally respectful and obeys
household rules. Jonique's social worker is seeking a single mom or
a two-parent family who will provide Jonique with nurturance, structure
and accountabihty when necessary. Jonique would like to have
siblings and would do well with other children her age or older She
also has an older sister and some contact between them would be beneficial.
Legally free for adoption, Jonique is waiting to blossom with
a caring family by her side
Not ready to make a lifelong commitment? Try mentoring!
Children in foster care m
, Greater Boston need caring adult
mentors. If you can commit to 8 hours
I a month for one year, and go through
a training and matching process, you
could provide some stability and comfort
to a child who needs someone to
count on. To begin, contact AFC Mentoring
at (617) 224-1300 or www.AFCmentoring.org.
AFC Mentoring
encourages foster and adopted youth
to flourish through committed mentoring
relationships. Hanging out two
afternoons a month, going to movies,
the mall, or bowling, can change two
I lives - yours and a child's.

third of the year at 7:03 of
the second. Cody Ikkala and
Mike Hull picked up the
assists, as Dube beat a
Merrimack defender down
the left side, sniping it
between the pads of
Cannata.
Cannata finished with 29
stops, as Merrimack outshot
Army 36-30. The junior
emerged with a great glove
stop in overtime on a Dube
slapper, just 34 seconds
before Todd gave the
Warriors the victory.

maintenance facility that
includes administrative
offices, a state of the art fuel
management dispensing system,
a 6,000 square foot storage

Guild is a 700-acre installation
that falls across the jurisdictions
of 3 separate town governments
(Reading, Lynnfield
and Wakefield), and includes
an extensive network of wetlands
and other protected natural
resource areas.
Existing infrastructure
systems within CCG were not
adequate to support the hew
facility, so a new half-mile
long utUity corridor was
included in the project.
CEA Ventures is also the
firm responsible for the construction
of the Wobum High
School athletic facility and
site work, which included a
new football stadium with synthetic
turf and track, a new
baseball field, a new softball
field, a new synthetic turf

lab, and a robotics lab.
Barring an unusually
harsh winter, signs of
progress at the worksite
should be clearly visible by
the time the warmer weather
arrives this coming spring.
. Tewksbury residents will
fikley be keeping a close tab
on the project, watching how
there money is being spent
after backing the project
through a Proposition 2 1/2
debt exclusion at the polls in
early 2010.
Voter turnout was unusually
high, vnth 7,377 registered
Tewksbury voters casting ballots,
about 41 percent of total
registered voters. The measure
passed by an ahnost 6-to-l
margin with 6,186 voting in
favor and just 1,191 voting
against. An average of 922 ballots
were cast in each
precinct.
As part of the state's new
Model School Program, the
design of Tewksbury high
school is being based on
Hudson High School, which
saves the community (and
taxpayers) hundreds of thousands
of doUars in design
work.
The MSBA accepted
Tewksbury into the Model
School Program in February,
2009, and offered town offficials
the opportunity to
choose from plans of several
model schools already constructed
in other communities.
The program saved
Tfewksbury an estimated $1
mfllion in prehminary design
costs and another $1 million in
architectural costs. The Model
School Program also provides
an extra five reimbursement
percentage points, which are
ultunately worth mUMons of
dollars as well.
While some communities
have had to wait years to
receive reimbursement
checks from the state, the
Model School Program guarantees
reimbursement every
30 days.

new school will look like is
