Peabody resident Joey Nicotera has designed a state-of-the-art lighting setup for the new black 

box theater at Northeast Arc. 

16 PAGES • ONE DOLLAR 

Let there be light at 

Northeast Arc’s new 

Black Box Theater 

As the completion of Northeast 

Arc’s new black box theater in downtown 

Peabody draws nearer, the potential 

for a variety of uses for the venue 

is coming more into focus, or, more 

specifically, into the spotlight. 

One of the features that will make 

the black box such flexible space is 

the state-of-the-art lighting design coordinated 

by Peabody resident Joey 

Nicotera. 

Nicotera is an IT professional by 

trade, but his passion is lighting. He 

has worked on projects at major venues 

such as the Museum of Science, but he 

now focuses on stage, theatrical and 

event lighting. 

“It’s a part-time passion that I put 

40 hours a week into,” said Nicotera, 

founder of Retonica, an internationally 

acclaimed lighting design company. 

“I’m an IT manager 9-to-5, but the 

lighting work takes over after that.” 

Nicotera, who moved to Peabody 

from Everett last October, said the 

lighting design options in the black box 

theater in the ArcWorks Community 

Center will range from sophisticated 

to basic, thus making the theater accessible 

to a wide range of productions 

and events. 

“There will be a digital lighting 

board that a novice will be able to 

operate on an iPad,” Nicotera said. 

“There will be sample lighting programs 

that will be ready to go as is or 

that can be customized as desired.” 

That’s one of the reasons Nicotera 

believes the impact of the black box 

theater will extend well beyond downtown 

Peabody. 

“I think it’s going to change the 

performance industry in this area,” he 

said. “There’s no other place in the 

area like it. There’s nothing as flexible 

as this space.’ 

For example, Nicotera said, a production 

could be staged in one section 

of the space and “you will have the 

ability to touch a button and automatically 

control the lighting only in that 

area.” 

Nicotera has done temporary lighting 

for Arc events the last few years, including 

a fundraising event in the 

black box theater space last summer. 

He is a member of the Friends of the 

Black Box Theater Committee that is 

spearheading fundraising for the new 

theater. 

Northeast Arc has raised approximately 

$445,000, including an $80,000

Property tax breaks are available for city’s seniors 

By Adam Swift 

Editor 

There’s a wide-ranging list of property 

tax exemptions available to the city’s senior 

citizens. 

Over the past several months, city officials 

have looked to promote these exemptions. 

A flyer was recently included in the January 

newsletter of the council on aging’s newsletter 

and the flyer is also provided by staff to visitors 

at the senior center. 

Councilor-at-Large Anne Manning-Martin 

has mentioned the exemptions at several 

council meetings and has also advocated 

promoting the information in the Peabody 

Municipal Light Plant electric bills. 

“It is important that we get this information 

out to residents who may be eligible or 

have relatives that may benefit from these exemptions,” 

said Manning-Martin. “We need 

to use several mediums available to reach 

them, including social media, Peabody Access 

Television, and the city’s website.” 

To be eligible for a property tax exemption, 

residents must meet all age, ownership, annual 

income, and whole estate or assets requirements 

and must have owned and occupied the 

property as their domicile as of July 1, 2017. 

Some of the exemptions include persons 

over 70, surviving spouses, or minors with 

limited assets; qualifying veterans, their

Peabody Municipal Light Plant 

looks at high speed internet 

By Adam Swift 

Editor 

The city’s electric rates are 

among the lowest in the state, 

thanks to the Peabody Municipal 

Light Plant (PMLP). 

But will Peabody Internet customers 

be able to see the same 

savings someday thanks to the 

public utility company? 

A homegrown high speed 

fiber network won’t be battling 

Comcast for customers any time 

soon, but it could be the end result 

of a recent announcement by 

Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt Jr. 

The city is partnering with the 

PMLP to build a high-speed fiber 

loop in Peabody. Initially, the 

fiber loop will connect various 

PMLP installations in the city and 

feature an open system design enabling 

new high-speed data networks 

to connect all the city’s 

$9.99 

public schools, libraries, public 

safety and public works facilities, 

and other municipal users. 

This is where it gets interesting 

for residents and businesses. 

Bettencourt wants the PMLP 

planning team to design the fiber 

loop with extra capacity so it 

could potentially deliver Gigabit 

speed Internet service to Peabody 

residents and businesses. 

“High speed fiber networks are 

critical components of 21st century 

municipal infrastructure,” 

said the mayor. “Third party 

network providers like Comcast 

and Verizon have not stepped up 

to better serve our city users, so 

Peabody is taking an important 

first step to create our own highspeed 

fiber network.” 

The proposed fiber loop would 

let the city manage its own internal 

data networks and Internet

First time participants • Boxing gloves with sign-up 

connectivity at significantly 

higher speeds and reliability 

compared to current choices, the 

mayor said. 

Although there are no concrete 

numbers at this early stage 

of the game, Bettencourt said the 

project would bring cost savings 

on connectivity to the PMLP and 

city departments. 

“We’re very early in the process, 

but we have a pretty good 

idea what our needs are and 

the city is looking at its needs,” 

said Glenn Trueira, the PMLP 

manager. 

Once the PMLP and city departments 

determine their needs 

for a high speed fiber loop or 

loops, the project will then be 

put out for design before being 

put out to bid for the fiber and 

installation. 

The high-speed fiber installation 

would open up more opportunities 

for the city, even the 

long-discussed cable television 

competition in Peabody. 

“We’re all trying to work 

on this together,” Trueira said. 

“There are needs and concerns 

from customers. This will take 

some time, but there will be good 

long-term benefits.” 

The PMLP has discussed the 

possibility of providing cable 

television service, but Trueira 

said the business model hasn’t 

made sense for the utility. 

However, if a new fiber network 

were installed throughout the 

city, it could create opportunities 

for a third party provider, he said. 

“It’s a lot of work and it will 

take a while, but once we get the 

infrastructure in, it is the medium 

to provide Internet and cable at 

the same time,” Trueira said. 

Given the PMLP’s generally 

favorable reputation, City 

Council President Ed Charest 

said the proposal makes sense. 

“This is a great opportunity,” 

he said. “You talk to people, and 

Comcast is not very well liked in 

the city. This is another opportunity 

for providing Internet, and I 

think it’s great.”

Malden’s loss looks to be 

Peabody’s gain. 

The Peabody Area Chamber of 

Commerce’s board of directors 

have hired Jenna Coccimiglio 

as their new executive director. 

Coccimiglio, who has led the 

Malden Chamber since 2013, will 

start her new position on March 1. 

“We’re pleased to welcome 

Jenna to the Peabody Area 

Chamber of Commerce team,” 

said Christopher Feazel, the 

board’s chairman and a district 

sales coordinator for Aflac. “With 

her years of chamber and management 

experience, we’re confident 

that she will have a positive 

impact in shaping the growth of 

our business members.” 

The chamber role will be a return 

to working in Peabody for 

Coccimiglio. Before joining the 

rate, which she said has not been 

updated since 2007. 

“We need to give this matter a 

thorough review to ensure that we 

are on par with both the current 

economy and what other communities 

are offering seniors, veterans, 

and disabled taxpayers,” 

she said. “I’ve referred the 

matter to the (council’s) finance 

committee and look forward to 

making sure we are being fair to 

those who are eligible and could 

use a little relief.” 

Malden Chamber, she worked 

for the Simon Property Group, 

including a position as an area 

guest service manager for the 

Northshore Mall. 

“I’m excited about the opportunity 

to be instrumental in 

promoting business growth in 

the greater business community 

and look forward to fulfilling 

the needs of our current membership 

while contributing some 

fresh ideas,” Coccimiglio said. 

“As a current business owner 

myself, I believe passionately in 

the mission of the chamber and 

its capacity to enhance the economic 

and business climate of its 

community.” 

As the executive director, 

Coccimiglio will be responsible 

for overseeing the daily operations 

of the chamber, including 

financial management, event 

coordination, and acquisition of

“We’re grateful for everyone

officer, noting that largest 

gift to date was a $100,000 grant

Coccimiglio takes the reins 

from Deanne Healey, who was 

at the Peabody chamber for 16 

years before taking a position as 

a vice president with Salem Five 

bank. In addition to working with 

new and established businesses 

during her time with the chamber, 

Healey worked closely with the 

city on events such as the pop-up 

pubs in Peabody Square. 

Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt 

Jr. said he looks forward to the 

city maintaining a close relationship 

with the chamber under 

Coccimiglio’s leadership. 

“I want to congratulate and 

welcome Jenna to the city of 

Peabody,” said the mayor. “I’m 

looking forward to working with 

her to continue the important 

work of the chamber of commerce 

in making Peabody a great 

place to live and work. Some tremendous 

things are happening 

in Peabody, and Jenna’s strong 

background and experience will 

be a great addition to our efforts.” 

greatly enhanced by Nicotera’s 

handiwork. 

“Joey is a great asset to this 

project,” Brown said. “Not only 

does he do outstanding work, but 

he is invested in Northeast Arc 

and our mission, so in many ways 

this is a labor of love for him. 

We’re lucky to have him.” 

The projected opening for the 

black box theater is sometime this 

spring.

CUTTING COSTS 

According to one poll involving a national sample of 2,131 adults between 

the ages of 50 and 80, 27 percent of those surveyed indicated that their 

prescription drug costs presented them with a financial burden. Yet, nearly half 

of these individuals failed to mention their concerns with their physicians. This 

is unfortunate because patients should be able to discuss out-of-pocket costs 

with their doctors for no other reason other than failure to take needed drugs 

can lead to unnecessary negative health consequences. When patients do 

discuss affordability issues with their doctors, two-thirds (67 percent) of the 

survey participants reported that their doctors could recommend a cheaper 

alternative. Thirty-seven percent found that their pharmacists could suggest a 

less-expensive option. 

Many patients assume that their doctors know the cost of the drugs they are 

prescribing, but that’s not necessarily true. Doctors in clinics don’t usually 

know how much the drugs cost. Pharmacists are an underused resource as 

well. They are knowledgeable about what insurance covers. If the cost of a 

drug is higher than expected, talk to the pharmacist about alternatives. For 

more information, please call VILLAGE PHARMACY at 781-334-3133 or see us 

in the Colonial Shopping Center. 

HINT: Those with Medicare Part D drug coverage who have prescriptions for 

multiple chronic conditions may be eligible for a free Medication Therapy 

Management (MTM) program by a pharmacist or other health professional who 

can review costs.

KIDS YOGA 

What does namaste mean? 

Pet of the week 

Namaste is a word that most 

people have heard and relate it 

to yoga. Well, that is for a very 

good reason. Namaste is usually 

done at both the beginning and 

closing of a yoga class. Often 

more likely at the end, when we 

are more at peace. The yoga instructor 

initiates Namaste as a 

symbol of gratitude and respect 

toward his or her students. 

It is used as a salutation and is 

usually spoken with a slight bow 

and with both hands pressed together, 

palms touching and fingers 

pointing upwards, thumbs 

close to the chest. This gesture is 

called a Mudra, more specifically 

the Anjali Mudra. 

But yet when we hear the 

word and perform the mudra 

we are still often wondering 

the meaning. I had a student 

recently ask “What do we mean 

when we say “Namaste?” It was 

easy to reply that it is the equivalent 

of hello but the fact is that 

it is much more meaningful. It 

directly translates to “the divine 

in me bows to the divine in 

you.” A direct definition of Namaste 

from Wikipedia is~Nama 

means bow, as means I, and te 

means you. Therefore, Namaste 

literally means “bow me you” or 

“I bow to you.” 

But, I knew that I had to keep 

the meaning simple yet relay 

the true purpose. So my reply is 

always more loosely translated. 

Namaste means the light in me 

honors the light in you or as I 

tell my yoga kids “I respect myself 

and I respect you.’ It is never 

too early to teach that lesson. 

NAMASTE TO ALL. 

Sharon Marrama, owner of 

Here Comes the Sun Yoga for 

Kids is a children’s yoga instructor 

at several local schools 

and studios. She holds a certificate 

in Teen Coaching and 

writes children’s books spreading 

sunshine along the way! 

Two-year-old Bullet is a local surrender. He enjoys going for long walks, playing in snow and snuggling. 

At times he will pounce on tennis balls just like a puppy. What he does not love are city noises and windshield 

wipers. Bullet is yearning for a home in the country where it is more quiet and with the sounds 

he is familiar with. If traveling in a car it would be best for him to be buckled in or in a crate or kennel 

in the back, or sunny out so the wipers are not on. Bullet has been neutered, weighs 65 pounds and is a 

Vizsla & Lab mix. He is also up to date with vaccines. His family left him his crate, bed and toys, please 

be sure to ask about them. 

If you are interested in meeting Bullet in the hopes of adopting him, you can meet him at the Northeast 

Animal Shelter located at 347 Highland Ave. in Salem, MA. Visiting hours are Monday-Friday 10 a.m.-8 

p.m. and weekends 10 a.m.-6 p.m. You can also view more information online @ www.neas.org.

Sports 

Boys basketball comes close against Magicians 

By Mike Alongi 

and Anne Marie Tobin 

PEABODY — The Marblehead boys basketball team 

fought off several second-half runs by Peabody to grab a close 

win over the Tanners, 59-54, at Peabody High Friday night. 

Peabody pulled within three points four times in the second 

half, but every time the Magicians were able to make a big play 

to fight the Tanners off. 

“Marblehead’s a good team,” said Peabody coach Thad 

Broughton. “We were in it the whole time, but we just couldn’t 

hit that one big shot that would’ve put us over the edge tonight.” 

The Tanners were led by Jake Irvine, who hit five threepointers 

and finished with 19 points. Joe O’Neill added 12 

points, while Avian Hernandez had seven points. Marcus 

Barker finished with six points and 10 rebounds. 

The game got off to a slow start on both sides, with each 

team making a number of mistakes to slow them down. Behind 

some solid play from Millett and Keaney, the Magicians were 

able to pull away a bit as the first quarter came to a close and 

took a 14-8 lead. 

Marblehead extended the lead in the second quarter to go 

into halftime leading, 30-21. 

But Peabody never quit. The first run came early in the third 

quarter, as the Tanners outscored Marblehead 15-7 over the 

first four minutes to pull within one, 37-36. The Magicians then 

responded with a 7-0 run to close the quarter with a 44-36 lead. 

But again, Peabody wouldn’t quit. The Tanners opened the 

fourth quarter with a 9-0 run in less than two minutes and a 

big three from Hernandez gave Peabody it’s first lead, 45-44. 

Marblehead then responded with a 10-2 run of its own to retake 

the lead, 54-47, with just 1:45 to go. Once Marblehead was 

holding a five-point lead with less than a minute to go, Peabody 

started to foul. It initially worked out well, as Marblehead only 

made one free throw and Irvine hit a three to make it 57-54 

with 12 seconds left. But then the Tanners fouled Marino, who 

knocked down the two game-clinching three throws to give 

Marblehead the win. 

Now at 8-6, Peabody is still pushing hard for a tournament 

spot as the season winds down. 

“We’ve been playing really good basketball as of late, which 

has been great to see,” Broughton said. “Going forward, we 

just want to make sure we remain confident and keep playing 

solid team basketball.” 

Peabody 59, Salem 53 

At Peabody Jan. 30, the Tanners overcame an 11-point third 

quarter deficit to pick up a big Northeastern Conference win 

and improve to 8-5. 

Chris Canela led the Tanners with 16 points and grabbed six 

rebounds, while Hernandez, in his first start of the season, had a 

Tanner football team holds banquet, announces captains 

By Anne Marie Tobin 

DANVERS -- It may be nearly 

three months since the Peabody 

High football team last took to the 

gridiron, but football was on a lot 

of people’s minds Monday night 

at Breakaway as the Tanners celebrated 

the 2017 season with its 

annual awards banquet. 

The highlight of the night was 

the announcement of the 2018 

captains - seniors Tyler Norman, 

Jake Sousa, Abe Kaba, Michael 

Lock and St. John’s Prep transfer 

Chris Glass. 

Norman received the William 

Dexter Award for Best Junior, 

while Sousa shared the Offensive 

Rookie of the Year Award with 

Angel Paulina. Kaba and Look 

received the Top Defensive 

Lineman Award, while Glass 

shared the Defensive Rookie 

of the Year Award with 

Bishop Fenwick transfer Sam 

Mastromatteo. 

Wagner University bound 

Eric DeMayo received the Most 

Valuable Player Award and 

the Harrington Scholar Athlete 

Award. Noah Freedman received 

the Offensive Player of the Year 

Award, while Nolan Murphy 

and Marcus Barker received the 

Defensive Player of the Year 

Award. 

Cam Powers and Dariel Canela 

were name the Top Defensive 

Linemen of the Year, while Cole 

Cuzzi received the 12th Player

huge game with 13 points, eight rebounds and six steals. 

Trailing 25-20 after a low-scoring first half, the Tanners 

trailed 31-20 in the third after the Witches drained two 

3-pointers in the opening minute. 

“They came out and hit a couple of big threes and it was 

a big momentum shift but I thought our guys handled it very 

well,” said Broughton. “We came out of the zone and our 

guys picked it up the intensity on the defensive end and that 

carried over to the offense. I thought our defensive intensity 

was much different when we went man-to-man. We had some 

nice drives to the hoop but for the most part, I thought we did 

enough to get the win defensively.” 

The strategy to come out of the zone paid off instantly with a 

14-0 Tanner run Peabody finished the quarter with a 21-6 edge 

to take a 42-37 lead into the final eight minutes. The Tanners 

heated up from behind the arc and hit six 3-pointers; three by 

Jake Gustin, two by Canela and another by Hernandez. 

Peabody carried the momentum into the final quarter, going 

on an 11-0 run to take its largest lead of the game, 53-37 after a 

Barker old-fashioned three-point play with about five minutes 

to play. 

Salem closed to within seven points with about two minutes 

to play, 55-48, with a 9-2 run, but that was as close as the 

Witches would come until the end when Salem hit a meaningless 

3-pointer. 

“Salem’s a fantastic team,” Peabody coach Thad Broughton 

said. “This is a big win for us. We made a nice comeback. We 

are headed in the right direction.” 

Irvine added 13 points with four rebounds and four steals. 

Marcus Barker scored three points and had eight rebounds and 

six steals. Joe O’Neill (5 points) also scored. 

“Jake Gustin (6 points) was very steady with the ball and 

hit a couple of nice layups and Irvine hit some huge threes 

when we needed them in the second half,” said Broughton. 

“And certainly Marcus, he is always there. Defensively he is 

unbelievable.” 

Broughton said a big factor in the win was the play of 

Hernandez. 

“He is instrumental for us because he is so versatile,” he said. 

“He’s leading us in steals, he hit shots from the outside, he can 

go to the hoop, he is just a fantastic player for us and, most 

importantly, he brings that spark and energy and did a great 

job for us.”

Tanner girls hockey hangs on to defeat Fenwick 


When it comes to cross-city 

rivalries, the one between the 

Peabody/Lynnfield and Bishop 

Fenwick girls hockey teams always 

seems to go right down to the wire. 

It’s a game that, year in and year 

out, both teams have circled on their 

schedules before the season has 

even begun. 

Saturday’s game at McVann- 

O’Keefe Rink, won by Peabody 2-1, 

came as advertised. The Tanners 

survived a wild last two minutes 

after Fenwick pulled goalie Cailyn 

Wesley and threw everything but 

the kitchen sink at the Tanners, 

but could not break through with 

the tying goal. Fenwick’s final 

push came after a scrum in front 

of Peabody goalie Abby Buckley, 

who covered up to force a faceoff 

with 14 seconds to go. With seconds 

to go, Fenwick’s 34th shot of 

the game (off the stick of Amanda 

Blanchette) was turned away by 

Buckley to preserve the win for the 

Tanners. 

“We knew at the end there 

that they were going to just load 

the front of the net after pulling 

their goalie,” said Peabody coach 

Michelle Roach. “We knew we had 

to pick up bodies and push people 

out the way and let Abby see the 

shots coming. This game was about 

our defense, they set the tone for the 

game and they and Abby did what 

they needed to do to get the win.” 

Despite coming up on the short 

end of the score, Fenwick coach

Doug Anderson was pleased with 

the Crusaders’ performance. 

“It was a really good girls 

high school game and I was really 

pleased with our effort,” said 

Fenwick coach Doug Anderson. 

“We had some terrific chances in 

the third period but she (Buckley) 

had to make some real good saves at 

the end to keep us from tying it up. 

The game was scoreless through 

the first period, but the action heated 

up in the second. 

Peabody struck first at the 8:28 

mark on a goal by senior captain 

Cassie Mirasolo. Sophomore sister 

Sammi Mirasolo rushed the puck 

into the offensive zone and go off 

a shot. The puck popped loose, 

where Cassie was in the right place 

at the right time and poked it home, 

giving Peabody a 1-0 lead. Sammi 

Mirasolo and freshman Paige 

Thibedeau picked up assists. 

The Crusaders’ Allie Giguere 

knotted the score a little more than six 

minutes later after a Buckley save on 

a shot by Olivia LaJacono forced a faceoff 

in the offensive zone. Amanda 

Banchette won the draw and played 

it back to Giguere on the right point, 

who fired a seeing-eye shot that snuck 

through past a screened Buckley, who 

never saw it coming. The time of the 

goal was 2:14. 

Peabody needed less than a 

minute to regain the lead. The 

Crusaders were called for icing, 

giving the Tanners a faceoff in the 

offensive zone. After junior Jess 

Robert won the draw, freshman 

Jen Flynn beat Wesley at the 1:34

mark to put the Tanners on top, 2-1. 

Senior captain Sarah Buckley was 

credited with an assist. 

“That’s been our thing all year, its 

all about the response,” said Roach. 

“When something happens like 

them getting that goal, we needed to 

respond right away and get it back 

and we did.” 

Both teams were dodging bullets 

in the third period. Peabody had a 

chance to extend the lead when it 

went on a power play at the 7:10 

mark, but the Crusaders killed off 

the penalty to keep it a one-goal 

game. 

With under two and half minutes 

to go, Blanchette broke in behind 

the defense only to be denied on the 

breakaway by Buckley in perhaps 

the biggest save of the game. 

“That breakaway at the end of the 

game was a huge save,” said Roach.

“I can’t save enough about Abby, 

that’s what she does for us and that 

save kept them out of the game.” 

Roach said Flynn and Thibedeau 

had a great games and credited the 

defensive rotation of senior captains 

Norton and Kaydee Purcell, 

sophomore Carolyn Garofoli and 

freshman Reilly Ganter. 

“Jen and Paige are really coming 

into their own,” said Roach. “Jen 

had a fantastic game. She was winning 

those one-on-one battles, and 

Paige just always seems to find 

the puck and had some great plays 

off the wall and always seems to 

find the lane to Sammi or Cassie. 

Tonight, though, it was all about the 

“D”. They really were the key.” 

Anderson singled out the efforts 

of Blanchette, Alison Countie and 

Jull Matucci.

and a lot of what do is set up around 

her on the faceoffs obviously, she’s 

like Bergeron in a way,” he said. 

“Alison Countie is probably our 

strongest defensive defenseman, but 

I thought Jill Matucci had a terrific 

game. She was flying tonight.” 

Both teams came into the game 

with a lot at stake. The Crusaders 

were looking to stay in the tournament 

hunt; a loss would drop them 

below .500 for the first time all 

season. The Tanners, on the other 

hand were looking to pick up their 

second straight win and reduce their 

magic number to one. 

Both teams were playing for a 

higher cause, however, as the first annual 

“Faceoff against Mental Illness” 

game was dedicated to the memory 

of James Luti, a former Stoneham 

High hockey player, who passed

Bishop Fenwick 

swimmers 2nd 

in CCL meet 


BOSTON — The Bishop Fenwick swim team 

came up short in its quest for a Catholic Central 

League Championship Saturday at Simmons College. 

The Crusaders finished second with 300 to edge out 

Archbishop Williams, which finished third with 

296 points. Austin Prep outdistanced the rest of the 

7-team field and won easily with 539 points. 

The meet, which was recently renamed the 

Catholic Central Cara A. Buckwell Memorial 

Swimming s and Diving Championship Meet, was 

bittersweet for all of the competitors, who honored 

Buckwell by donning purple in memory of the 

former Fenwick coach, who passed away last year 

after a short, but spirited battle with lung cancer. 

“It was a meet very close to the heart for many 

of the swimmers, coaches, and families as it was 

named in honor of Bishop Fenwick High School’s 

former coach Cara,” said Fenwick coach Kiersten 

DeWyngaert. “It was amazing to see all of the 

swimmers wearing something purple, Cara’s favorite 

color in her honor.” 

Catherine Christuk broke the CCL record in the 

girls 50 backstroke (58.79) and was named CCL 

Female MVP. 

Rowan Emerson and Sophia Lumino were 

double winners. Emerson won the 50 free (24.84) 

and 100 breaststroke (1:04.07), while Lumino won 

the 200 IM (2:19.15) and 500 free (5:20.83). 

On Saturday, Fenwick will compete in the Girls 

North Sectional meet at MIT. The Crusaders will 

be represented by Christuk, Lumino, Sarah Long, 

Rebecca Leelman, Kathryn Leelman, Sabrina 

Botthof , Emily Delbene, Hannah Kubat and 

Analiese Jezowski will be heading to the Girls 

North Sectional Meet at MIT 

Sunday, Rowan Emerson will represent Fenwick 

at the Boys North Sectional Meet, also at MIT.
