Duxbury firefighter John Montosi had just finished his errands and was heading toward his home in Pembroke after a day of ice rescue training for the Duxbury Fire Department when he saw smoke in the sky over Valley Street. “I was about a half a mile away … and I wanted to check to make sure that the Pembroke Fire Department was on the scene,” Montosi said. But when he arrived at 35 Valley Street, where flames and smoke were pouring from the house, garage and breezeway, there were no trucks in sight. Meanwhile, neighbor Jake Licoski had seen the fire and called police, then went to the house to see if he could help. “I could hear her, but I couldn’t see anything,” Licoski said. That’s when Montosi showed up. Off duty, he didn’t have his firefighting gear with him and also couldn’t get into the house. “I tried to get in the front door. I couldn’t get in because it was too hot, too much smoke. There were neighbors on the scene also, so between

Duxbury firefighter John Montosi, a Pembroke resident, was heading home on Tuesday when he saw the fire and stopped to help neighbor Jake Licoski and another man rescue a woman.

myself and them we were able to break the window, and I reached in and grabbed her hand and pulled her toward the window. She was trying to get out, and we were pulling and carrying her, so we were lucky enough to get her out of the building,” Montosi said. Mrs. Lueder was responsive, he said, but had suffered some burns and was having trouble breathing from the smoke. She was treated by Pembroke firefighters and paramedics when they arrived shortly after, along with Kingston and Duxbury officials. But Montosi’s part in the rescue wasn’t over. “We were a little shorthanded so I got to drive the ambulance,” he said later that evening at the Duxbury station, where he was interviewed by several local television reporters. “The paramedics and the firefighters from Pembroke took good care of her, but I was able to drive.” Montosi and Kingston paramedics transported Vida and her husband Hans Lueder to South Shore Hospital, where they were treated and released that evening, according to a hospital spokesperson. Montosi was treated for minor cuts on his hand by paramedics at the scene. “I was just in the right place at the right time,” he said of the rescue, chalking it up to luck. “Everything happened really fast. It just went by quick. … Anybody in my position would do the exact some thing. It’s what we’re trained to do, and whether you’re on duty or off duty, it doesn’t matter.” He said seeing how quickly his neighbor’s home went up in flames has made him think twice about what he would do if faced with a fire in his own home, which was built around the same time as the Lueders.’ “It was unbelievable. It just totally went up,” he said. “If I ever have a fire in this house, I’m out of here. I’m not grabbing anything, just getting my wife and kids out.” A full-time Duxbury firefighter for just over two years,

Montosi said he has worked fires before but that Tuesday’s blaze was a new experience. “That was the first time that I’ve ever been to a fire where there was someone still inside,” he said. “It was a good end result.” Pembroke Fire Chief Jim Neenan said he didn’t realize Montosi and neighbors had rescued Mrs. Lueder until after

“The department is very proud of him. He represented the department to the standards that we hoped he would. I would hope any other member of this department would have done the same thing.” – Deputy Chief Chris West returning to the station from fighting the fire. “When I got there [to the scene] I was informed that he [Montosi] was helping one of the occupants who was injured in the fire. I know he’s a paramedic,” Neenan said. He learned of the efforts of Montosi and ersby after getting a call from a TV station. Duxbury Deputy Fire Chief Chris West praised Montosi’s efforts. “His training basically kicked in. Life safety is number one,” West said. “I told him yesterday, this is a oncein-a-career opportunity and to savor the moment, because this is what you train for.” Though fire officials deal with fires of all sizes, accidents and other emergencies, pulling someone from a fire is not a regular event, West said. “You very rarely get the opportunity to actually rescue somebody from a burning building,” he said. “The department is very proud of him. He represented the department to the standards that we hoped he would. I would hope any other member of this department would have done the same thing.”

Cyberbullying a real danger, experts warn continued from page one

worked closely with students during the rest of the week, speaking to sixth and seventh graders at the Duxbury Middle School and fourth and fifth graders at the Alden School. Wiseman warned parents that bullying was a serious issue, not just a rite of age or something to be brushed aside as an integral part of growing up. “These issues are not just about kids being nice,” she said. While bullying used to be more one-on-one, with the advent of technology like instant messaging and social networking sites like Facebook and Myspace, bullying becomes more widespread and more reciprocal, Wiseman explained. She warned that bullying, especially things said online, can be so intense that traditional mediation methods, such as saying “I don’t like when you say ...” can be ineffective. “What they’re doing to each other is so harsh,” she said. “[A bully] is going to say, ‘so?’” “This is why kids think they’re going crazy,” she added. “People are nice to their face, but they’re just brutal online.” Wiseman preaches a technique called SEAL, which stands for stop, explain, affirm, and lock in/lock out. “The goal is to talk to

Rosalind Wiseman, author of the book “Queen Bees and Wannabees” spoke to parents, teachers and students last week about the dangers of bullying.

“It’s something that is always on the front burner,” she said. She agreed that technology is turning what was already an omnipresent problem in schools into a major headache for teachers and s. “The more things kids have at their disposal, the more this is becoming an issue,” she said. “We as parents are constantly working kids towards

“When the students don’t report it, we can’t help out. We need to shed some light on it, to try to put a stop to it ... you want to make sure they know that [bullying] is not ok.” – Friend Weiler, school safety officer somebody you feel intimidated by and speak your truth to them,” she said. Superintendent of School Susan Skeiber said bullying is an issue schools have to deal with every day.

more independence, but at the same time you have to constantly keep track of them.” Skeiber said the Duxbury School District works yearround to combat bullying, both in school and online.

Nearly every school has programs where students focus on respecting each other. She said that the district did run a program on cyberbullying with the help of the Plymouth County District Attorney’s office, but it was poorly attended by parents. “We want to make parents aware ... it’s okay to look at what your son or daughter is doing online,” she said. School Safety Officer Friend Weiler agreed that increasing awareness of the issue is the biggest challenge for the schools. “When the students don’t report it, we can’t help out,” he said. “We need to shed some light on it, to try to put a stop to it .. you want to make sure they know that it’s not ok.” He said the bullying that takes place over the Internet and on cellphones and other mobile devices is the hardest to combat. “It’s out there, and it’s tough to police,” he said. Weiler credited the Parent Connection for bringing Wiseman to the district and for bringing the bullying issues to the forefront. Wiseman stressed to the teachers and parents that a proactive approach was essential to making headway against bullying. “It’s on us. We have to look in the mirror and ask, how do we contribute to a safe environment in school?” She said if teachers and parents provide the right kind of , victims of bullying can overcome it. “You will get through it in one piece if you have ,” she said.


South Shore Gourmet Ask the Chef: Bob Cioffi

C

By Michelle Conway, Clipper Columnist [email protected]

hef Bob Cioffi has been cooking up great food on the South Shore for the last twenty-seven years. Food and cooking are truly in his blood. His loyal Cataldi’s customers were thrilled when he returned to the restaurant and reopened under the new moniker “Bernardo’s Restaurant”, located on Route 27 in Hanson. Dubbed “the Energizer Bunny of the Kitchen,” Chef Bob’s enthusiasm for his customers and his cuisine bubbles forth wildly. He spends most days in the kitchen instinctively crafting homemade sauces with fresh herbs, cutting meats, sourcing quality ingredients and preparing for the dinner hour. He is in the kitchen each night orchestrating every dish from scratch, many to the exact specifications of the customer. Chef Bob is as devoted to his customers as he is to his food. “This restaurant belongs to the customers. My wife, Candi and I are here for them. We will accommodate every wish if possible.” Judging by the convivial bar crowd and busy 100 seat dining room, Bob seems to be making culinary wishes come true nightly at Bernardo’s. Many of his customers are regulars who return week after week for his deeply satisfying comfort food, classic Italian dishes and budget-friendly prices. Menu items top out at $20 with most hovering around $15 per entrée. On a recent night, Chef Bob offered slowly braised Osso Bucco served with old world tomato sauce and pasta for $15.95. Bernardo’s gourmet pizza menu includes seasoned pizza shells topped with traditional and not so traditional toppings; a customer favorite is the Chicken Saltimbocca pizza, perfect for a cold winter’s night. Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and Chef Bob promises, with a romantic twinkle in his eye, a warm welcome, a menu that won’t disappoint, and a little surprise for every couple. Many couples who had their wedding reception in the lovely Candelara function room return year after year to celebrate, reminisce and enjoy Chef Bob’s effusive hospitality. Bob offers his customers a tantalizing peek into the workings of a professional kitchen with his evening cooking classes. Each class takes place in the restaurant kitchen and includes a sampling of the array of dishes he creates on the spot, all in an environment that makes everyone feel at home. Bernardo’s Pasticcatta Chef Bob Cioffi Serves 4 - 6 2 sweet Italian sausages 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 Vidalia onion, sliced thin 1 tablespoon mascarpone cheese 4 cups of light cream 1 cup frozen sweet peas, thawed Freshly ground pepper to taste Romano cheese to taste 1 lb. pasta (shells, penne or farfalle)

Par boil the sausages for about ten minutes to bring the internal temperature of the sausage to 160 degrees. Slice the partially cooked sausages. In a medium pan, heat the olive oil and sauté the sausages and onions until the onions are soft and the sausage is cooked through. Drain the oil from the pan. Add the light cream and mascarpone cheese and simmer until the liquid is thickened and reduced by about a third. Stir in the sweet peas and season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Toss al dente pasta in the creamy sauce, turn into bowls and garnish with a sprinkle of Romano cheese. Bernardo’s Restaurant, 1486 Main St./Route 27 Hanson. Phone: 781-293-0555.

Sun Tavern closing should be a lesson ———

It all starts with I respect for one another

T

wo different speakers this week, author Rosalind Wiseman and ADL Assistant Director Jennifer Smith, brought the same message to Duxbury: it all starts with education, familiarity and respect. Smith, speaking at the Martin Luther King Jr. Day breakfast Monday morning, outlined what she called the “pyramid of hate.” At the top is genocide and other acts of violent racism and bigotry. But at the bottom are the perpetuation of rumors, stereotypes, jokes and innuendos that, if left to fester, can become racism and violent hate crimes. At her lecture, Wiseman talked about the joking and kidding around among teenagers that can turn into more destructive behavior down the road. Whether it’s homophobic jesting among boys or biting texts between teen girls, a joke can turn into a hurtful thing quickly. The common thread here is to have a basic level of respect for each other. Without that foundation of misinformation, stereotypes and rumors –– whether in regard to the races of the world or different social groups in middle school –– can balloon into more serious bullying, hazing, prejudice and racism. But if we chip away at that foundation, it will topple the more serious crimes at the top. –– J. Graeber

Speak out on time changes —

T

he School Committee has scheduled a meeting on Feb. 4 at 7 p.m. in Alden School room 104 for the purpose of voting on changing the start times of the middle school and high school. I urge all parents of students that this affects to attend this meeting and voice your concerns before it gets voted in without our knowing. I have spoken with a number of parents, all of whom agree that the change would create major problems in the lives of many residents. The School Committee and superintendent have proposed the high school and middle school start time change to 8:15 a.m. from 7:30 a.m. The School Committee and superintendent believe that this will give our older kids 45 minutes longer to sleep, because they are sleep deprived -- or so the studies claim. In my opinion, and the opinion of many others, the reality is that our kids will

stay up later and not gain the extra 45 minutes. These changes will have many unintended consequences, as numerous as there are families with kids in Duxbury. Some obvious examples range from Alden kids unsupervised at home or the public library for longer periods after school, to disruption and complications of parents work schedules, to limiting high school students after school employment options. I am amazed that they really think this will help our kids. As a product of the Duxbury school system, I, and others, turned out fine -- and believe it or not, we started school at 7:30 a.m. We need to prepare them for life after high school and not worry about making it easier for them while they’re in high school. They’ll be fine, really. John Muller Autumn Avenue

t is very sad to see the Sun Tavern’s doors closed. Not only has it been great to have a comfortable and cozy place in the neighborhood to enjoy a delicious meal, the restaurant holds even more meaning for my husband and me. More than 25 years ago, when the restaurant was The Chart House, it was where my husband (then boyfriend) proposed to me. We did not live in Duxbury at the time. However, once we moved to Duxbury, and happened to choose a home only a couple of miles from the restaurant, it was great to be able to enjoy good food and meet friends at a place that held a special meaning for both of us. The fact that their doors are closing, though, is not surprising after the town’s decision to deny them the opportunity to expand their business. The very things that neighbors were

trying to avoid are the things they may end up getting: decreased privacy, property expansion, increased lighting, etc. But they should have been able to predict it. The writing was on the wall, even without the economy plummeting. The town and its residents are just starting to learn an important lesson regarding compromise on affordable housing issues.

It is too bad that they could not have seen that reasonable compromise with a long-standing, favored and friendly neighborhood business was the wisest move. Hopefully, another restaurateur will help save the day and keep this very special place for all to enjoy. Linda L. Garrity West Street

A roll back makes sense ———————

M

uch is being written and discussed on the Community Preservation Act and I would like to my for the reduction that is currently being considered. Most of us are facing financial woes that we never thought could possibly take place in the USA. The financial

debacle seems to grow each day and many of us now must face a considerable increase in our town property taxes along with increases in just about every category of basic living expenses. It seems that the A is an area that could offer help, to all property owners, without affecting vital services. Doesn’t it make sense to roll it back, put

dollars into pockets that sorely need replenishing and then, in the future, revisit it and increase funding when we are out of the financial woods? Seems like Common Sense 101 to me. How about you? Ben Murphy Priscilla Lane

A surcharge needs review ——————

D

uxbury is doing well to review the A surcharge. But it will take work to get this rollback article through town meeting and onto the ballot, where it belongs. If ed, this spring’s article wouldn’t appear on the ballot until 2010. This “lag” is not a reason to oppose the rollback at Town Meeting. In fact, the lag will give us ample time to confirm where the state’s declining A is heading for the long term. Also, by 2010 our property tax bills will have caught up to today’s reality -- our own property’s fair share of today’s uncertain market mired in a levy limit which automatically increases regardless of that market. As we have seen, a lot can happen in three years. Today it’s not too meaningful that in 2006 Hingham rejected a rollback and maintained its A as is. I wonder if Hingham’s thoughtful taxpayers would do the same today. A advocates have done good things for Duxbury, to be sure, and I thank them. This valuable program flourished through economic salad days;

however, it remains a separate, discrete surcharge with dwindling matching funds in tough times. Now, perhaps, there should be no earmarking or set asides for even the smallest amount. Instead there should be a sense of urgency that all of the town’s revenues go directly through our single elected body.

Whatever the outcome in 2010, voters will have had plenty of time to think about it as long as town meeting adopts the article this spring. If the rollback succeeds in 2010, A advocates can seek to restore 3 percent when the opportune time comes. Thomas H. Andrews Tremont Street

No place for these views –—

A

s President of the Duxbury Interfaith Council, I am writing to express my deep disappointment in Bruce Barrett’s piece about our annual Martin Luther King Jr. Prayer Breakfast. For over 75 years, the mission of the Duxbury Interfaith Council has been “to nourish the spirit of understanding and cooperation among the diverse religious institutions and people of faith in the Duxbury community, and to be a visible example of tolerance and respect between faiths.” Each year our outreach program provides food baskets, toys at the holidays, oil in the winter and a summer camp experience for over 150 families in need

in Duxbury. Our MLK Prayer Breakfast is an opportunity for our whole community to put aside differences in faith and politics and come together to celebrate diversity and overcome hatred and bigotry. Neither the DIC nor this year’s inspirational speaker, Jen Smith from the ADL, had any intention or desire to use our interfaith activity as a vehicle to express foreign policy positions. To the detriment of all, only Mr. Barrett found it necessary to use his coverage of this wonderful local tribute to the life and legacy of Dr. King to air his own political views. Rev. Catherine Cullen Duxbury Interfaith Council

Keep the pool open ——————————

A

lthough these are obviously difficult economic times for Duxbury, we were surprised to hear that closure of the Percy Walker Pool was under consideration for reducing the budget gap. The availability of a municipal pool was attractive to us when we bought our house 15 years ago, and all of our children have used the pool at one time or another for swim lessons, swim teams and diving. Before the town decides to close such an important resource, there are many points to consider. What does the Percy Walker pool provide to Duxbury? • It services all generations in the town of Duxbury—from toddlers to seniors. • It provides swim lessons to residents and others at reasonable rates. • It provides a home for our championship high school swim and dive teams. • It provides a home to a masters swim team and multiple swim and dive clubs. • It trains our lifeguards. • It provides swim lessons to our entire fourth grade. • It provides meet space for adjacent municipalities. • Many a happy birthday are celebrated there. What will happen if we close the Percy Walker Pool? The High School swim and dive teams, at over 60 strong, will have no space for practice or meets. Calls to multiple pools, from Plymouth to Norwell, have revealed that these facilities are full with commitments from other teams or of their clubs. If we are able to find space, the cost will be over $21,000.

Swim captains plea for pool T By Lauren Wilson, Senior Swim Captain

[six lanes for two hours, five days a week, at $35 per lane per hour, over a 10-week season) This does not include transportation or meet hosting costs. Previously, the school department has never had to pay usage fees for the swim team. Without available diving boards, the High School dive team may have to go as far as Quincy and pay for the pool use and round-trip transportation, in order to continue. We will lose our fourth grade swim program—a tragedy in our beach community! Duxbury residents will not be able to swim at all unless they local clubs at a significant increase in cost and travel. What are the real economics of the pool? Essentially at the present time the pool costs this town about $120 a day to provide this important recreational resource to its residents. What can we do? We can decide the pool is important to Duxbury and tell the selectmen and Town Meeting we want to keep it open. We should create a committee or board consisting of with areas of ex-

pertise in finance, aquatics and marketing to review what changes could be made at the pool to increase revenues. We should vote to approve the renovations to the Percy Walker Pool as recommended as a one time debt exclusion at an approximate cost of ten cents per day per household, when the measure comes before Town Meeting. Let’s not close the Percy Walker Pool hastily. The lack of pool time availability on the South Shore makes the Percy Walker Pool a jewel of Duxbury. Is it really worth closing the pool for a cost of $120 per day? When your business runs at close to break-even, you first look for ways to minimize costs and maximize revenues before closing the doors and putting people out of work. Once mothballed, it is likely that start-up costs will significantly increase and jeopardize any restart. While we face difficult economic decisions in the year, let’s not give up a resource that has such a significant impact on so many Duxbury residents! Be sure to make your voice heard at Town Meeting on March 14. Karen Goldberg Torrey Lane

Pool is my watery escape ———————— or 20 years prior to my move to Duxbury, I swam several times a week in the beautiful indoor and outdoor pools of the Jewish Community Center in Newton where I lived. One of the major criteria for my move to Duxbury a few years ago was that it had a town pool for swimming year round. The Duxbury pool certainly lacks the brightness and cleanliness of the state of the art JCC pools and locker rooms, but still, the old town pool is a wonderful place to swim. I love to strap on my swimming suit, goggles, and flippers and pretend I’m a fish for an hour or so. Never do I feel so agile, graceful, and peaceful as when I’m swimming. Swimming simply cures what ails me. I never quite feel like a person until I’ve pretended to be a fish. Everything about my body and mind feels better after a swim. In these tough economic times, local resources take on more importance and there is relief knowing a swim is only a heart beat away. Whenever I go to the pool it is alive with people of

19

all ages enjoying what water has to offer. Kids jump high off the diving board while senior citizens float on by. It’s a joyful place. Everyone there knows the power water has to heal. So…please, let’s clean up and not close down the old swimming pool and keep alive a splashing community opportunity to swim. Vicky Anderson Washington Street

Why the pool is important to me

I

think that the Percy Walker Pool is very important to Duxbury. One reason is that the Alden fourth graders go to the pool for a swim program every year. I just finished my swimming program as a fourth grader. It was fun. And if the pool is shut down, next year’s fouth graders will not be able to do the swim program. Another reason is the high school swim and dive team has meets and practices there. My sister swims for them. Where will they go? Also, I love diving there two times a week for South Shore Diving. Others on my dive team live not very close and drive back and forth just to dive there. My team would have to find another place to dive. Another thing is people do swim lessons and learn how to be lifeguards there. Also, will have to find new pools to be of. That is why I think the pool should not be shut down. The Percy Walker Pool is a very important part of Duxbury. Emma Goldberg Alden Student

he pool is currently home to both the Duxbury boys and girls’ high school swim teams. For me, the pool has been a place where fun, exercise, and competition come together in an open, friendly environment. Every year we have walk-ons, people new to the sport, who because of the fun and easy access. We consistently have crowded bleachers at our meets, often filled with current DHS students who can walk across the street to watch. The boys and girls’ teams have over 60 combined , many who could not be a part of such a great group if long commuting or strange hours were required. Both teams have been league champions several times in the past, and are undefeated again this season. Just about everyone on the team gets a chance to participate in each meet, something unheard of in many other sports. If the pool were closed, the team would lose not only its best facility, but also a large majority of its participants and spectators. It would not only be a lot more expensive to practice and compete somewhere else, it would be a lot less fun. should have the same benefits and opportunities that past swimmers have had. As we are off tonight swimming against Barnstable, please think about the two high school teams, our future and that of our . For the four years of my high school career, my favorite time of the year is swim season. Swim team is an opportunity to get a great work out and make new friends. None of this would be possible without the Percy Walker Pool. The Duxbury High School Swim Team’s are very privileged to have a pool right across the street from the school. Duxbury is one of the only teams in the Patriot League with this privilege. Closing down the PWP would not only be a disappointment, but an inconvenience as well. The Scituate/Cohasset swim team, our rival, has to travel all the way to Quincy every day just to get a decent work out. Hingham has to travel to Randolph and share pool space with another team to practice. Having to take a bus to another town to practice is just crazy when we have a perfectly good pool right across the street. Renting pool space is very expensive and I think our money could be spent in a more efficient way. Our team is very proud of the fact that we can hold so many home meets because of our pool. I am a senior this year and the co-captain of the swim team as well. Many of my fondest memories were created at this pool and I would love to see it stay so Duxbury can carry out the tradition of having an amazing swim team. The Percy Walker Pool is like a second home to me. I have been swimming there for over 15 years. I am currently a captain of the Duxbury girls swimming and diving team and I know that everyone on the team would be very upset to see it go. Many traditions have been set at that pool and many goals have been reached. We have been Patriot League champs for the past 17 years and we would not have been able to do it without the Percy Walker Pool. We would not be able to practice everyday, host meets, and be as strong of a team as we are now without the pool. At the beginning of every season, we set specific goals based on the previous year. As a senior, I want to leave knowing that next year the team will reach their goals and place better at sectional and states than the year before. If the pool were to close, then our goals for the future will not be accomplished which would be a huge disappointment to the team. Please help the Duxbury High School Swim Team in making our goals a reality by voting to keep the pool up and running. Without a pool, there is no swim team. If we are going to continue our swimming success we must ensure that we have a place to train and a place where young children can learn to swim and fall in love with the sport of swimming. Starting out swimming on one of the club swim teams that used to swim out of this pool gave many of the best DHS swimmers their start. Some of those teams have now left the PWP for better facilities. This pool is essential to keeping the Duxbury High School athletic tradition alive. On behalf of the Duxbury Boys and Girls Swimming and Diving Teams, we thank you for taking the time to read our letter and hope you decide to keep the Percy Walker Pool up and running. Gaby Pipp, Hunter Chiasson, Andrew Sommer also signed this letter.

The old saying, “All good things come in threes,” rang true for the boys’ basketball team Friday night at Pembroke High School. With a 71-54 win over the Fisher Division-leading Titans, the Dragons improved to 11-0 on the season, qualified for the MIAA Tournament and senior Mark Brust scored his 1,000th point wearing the green and white.

The Bates-bound senior led the Dragons with 27 points, despite playing sparingly when the Dragons pulled away, and eclipsed the 1,000 plateau in front of a raucous contingent of Dragons fans, who made the trip over to see his big moment. “It feels good,” Brust said about reaching the milestone. “I definitely think it was a team accomplishment too. We worked hard together, we got the win and just played hard. It just worked out tonight.” “He’s a special kid,” said Head Coach Gordon Cushing. “He’s humble as heck and he’d give away all those points for a W. It’s been an honor to coach him and Bates gets a hell of a player.” Brust has been with the varsity club since his freshman year and was the sixth man when Duxbury went on their state title run in 2005-06. While his skills have always been evident to Cushing, the coach said Brust’s commitment to the game has made

He’s a very coachable kid.” Despite getting production from Brust and Sam Davidson early, Pembroke kept pace with the Dragons throughout the first half. Behind 12 first-half points from center Matt Devine, Pembroke kept the game within five after one quarter. The Dragon’s pulled away slightly in the second quarter, but still only carried a 36-27 lead into the locker room at halftime. The Dragons pulled away for good in the third, as their defense frustrated both Devine and point guard Sam Nagle, while stretching their lead to 18.. “Our quarter this year has been the third,” Cushing said. “I think it’s because we’re deep and we wear teams down.” The Dragons continued

College Consultants of New England are cold. We sorted it out. Ann had snuck out of the house to see Alex skate. Ann’s chemotherapy is finished, but her oncologist doesn’t want her out in public until her immune system recovers from the chemo. She cheated. I picked on her for not wearing a gold lamé hat, something bright enough for me to pick her out of a crowd. It made her laugh, but her friends were a little more appropriate, and softly overjoyed to see her out and about.

Life on ice continued from page one

Sharon Cronin ed us. She’s the president of the Pilgrim Skating Club based at the Hobomock Arena in Pembroke, and was also instrumental in starting Duxbury High School’s Figure Skating Team. They skated to a State Championship last year. Sharon’s daughter Jacquie, 17, is on the team and Kelly Cronin, 13, will up as soon as she hits the High School. Kelly skated to Gold in the Open Juvenile Ladies class at New Englands. This is the Joan Vienneau in the Ice Capades, world of competitive figure from Myrna Walsh’s “Clipper skating, tightly woven Visits” piece in the mid 1980’s. and counted (most often) in families, not solitary individuals. Indeed, the families link together as well. Parents one another. In the clobberings like Ann Shaughnessy’s breast cancer battle, of course, but also in the day-today grind that it takes to raise an elite athlete. Take Joan Vienneau-Bunnell, the Director at the Bog. She grew up in Duxbury, started skating at Hobomock (still her first love, and still coaching there, too). By 1976 she had taken an Eastern Championship at the Intermediate Ladies level. Duxbury’s Chuck Foster (figure skater and judge at the national and international level) noticed, and recommended Joan to the famed Italian coach Carlo Fassi. “I’ll never forget what Chuck did for me,” Joan says. “I went to take [coaching] from Carlo in Colorado. I was 15, and went there in the summers. He coached Dorothy, too [Hamill] and Scott [Hamilton].” These famous skaters and others remain friends. Scott, Dorothy, and Jo-Jo Starbuck skated with Joan in her career as a member of the Ice Capades, and later in John Curry’s Skating Company. Curry’s shows were smaller, about 14 skaters and set in theaters rather than arenas. Joan had seen Curry’s show years earlier, at 16 years old, and told her mother, “That’s what I want to do!” “My mother wasn’t so sure, but a few years later [she was 22] I auditioned for John Curry, and I got the job. I opened at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York.” Curry’s show is also where Joan Joan Vienneau at 22, curtain call at the met Jim Bunnell, Met. her husband-to-be, a stage hand who travelled with the group. When it came time to settle down and raise a family, Joan left the show, but never left figure skating. Now she coaches and runs the Bog program, proud to hire only Gold Medal or Master level coaches. It seems to be working. The response to the exhibition, according to Joan, was excellent.

Boys regain scoring touch

By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor [email protected]

After going scoreless in a pair of 3-0 losses to St. John’s and Norwood, the Dragons got their scoring touch back on Saturday night with a 3-2 win over Marshfield (3-3-3), putting them back over the .500 mark at 5-4-2. Coach John Blake knew he would have nights when Boys’ hockey

goals would be hard to come by, but with goalie Dan Sangster standing on his head all night long, three would be all the Dragons would need. “He kept us in the game in that first period,” said Blake. “We were out-played, outshot, out everything.” Despite the win, Marshfield carried the play for most of the first period, buzzing the Duxbury end and keeping Sangster on his toes for the full 15 minutes while he held them scoreless.

Sangster continued to keep the Rams at bay as the shots kept coming, and once again the Dragons took advantage of a lull in the action to grab a 2-0 lead. With sophomore defenseman Stefan Krall and Hetherington moving the puck up ice and into the Marshfield zone, Hetherington spotted junior forward Jim Landry, who fired to the top left corner to beat Lundberg for his first goal of the year. A minute later it appeared the Rams were on the verge of narrowing the margin by one, but they failed to execute a 3-on-1 break into the Duxbury end and saw their chance go by the board. The frustration continued for the visitors, as Sangster was unbeatable while facing over 20 shots in the first 29 minutes. With 2:49 left in the middle stanza the Rams went on their first power-play of the night: a sequence that would test Sangster and the Duxbury defense.

tournament it was very chippy. Any time you throw these two teams together it is going to be an emotional game.” The penalty would come back to haunt the Rams, as it took sophomore Bryan Barry just 41 seconds to score what proved to be the game winner on an assist from sophomore defenseman Kane Haffey. Despite trailing 3-1, Marshfield kept on plugging, as Eric Weidemann came busting in from his right wing slot and fired on Sangster with 12:02 to go. Both teams killed off short-handed situations midway through the final period,

but the Rams didn’t need a man advantage to close the gap to 3-2. After another Ram rush that Sangster saved, the faceoff came to his right where Conor MacLean drew it back to Jay Matthews, who wristed a shot past the screened netminder to make the game interesting. Momentum was clearly on Marshfield’s side, as the Rams almost got the equalizer 20 seconds later when their shot appeared to beat Sangster. However, the net came off its mooring and the officials ruled the play dead. Duxbury’s defense held

the fort the rest of the way, as Sangster made a great save on a screened shot, and his teammates fended off an extra skater situation when the Rams pulled their goalie with 35 seconds to go. “We need to play for three periods if we are going to win anything,” said Blake. “The talent level isn’t extraordinary. But if these guys want to outwork the competition shift after shift and period after period we’ll be okay.” The team will be back in action on Saturday night at 5 p.m. at The Bog when it takes on Archbishop Williams.

DOING THE DIRTY WORK: Defenseman Ryan Schroeder (19) and forward Matt Hetherington (16) battle for a loose puck in the corner.

The junior netminder was hoping his teammates would come to his aid in the second quarter, but it didn’t start out that way, as the Rams tested Sangster twice in the opening minute in trying to grab the lead. Duxbury took advantage of the Marshfield pressure and broke out of their zone, firing on Marshfield goaltender Will Lundberg, who left a rebound for Matt Hetherington. The senior captain gathered the loose puck and pulled it around Lundberg as he crossed through the crease, depositing it behind the fallen netminder for a 1-0 lead at the 13:35 mark.

Just two seconds remained on the man-advantage when the Rams broke through, picking up another Sangster save with Ryan Conors beating the Dragon goalie to cut the margin to 2-1 with 21 seconds to go. Things got a bit testy in the final seconds of the second period, as the Rams were whistled for roughing, and the referees hit both teams with unsportsmanlike penalties, setting up a Duxbury powerplat to start the third. “We knew coming into the game it was going to be physical,” said Blake. “Last time we played them in the Christmas

President’s Day comes early for wrestlers

From The AD

The new-look Patriot League featured one of the most competitive and surprising wrestling match-ups of the season last Wednesday night in Quincy when the Dragons took on the Quincy Presidents and the Duxbury Dragons. WRESTLING

Despite an eight-point deficit with two matches to go, Quincy rallied at home to win in dramatic fashion, 37-36, in front of a full house at the Dungeon Wrestling Club. The come-from-behind win by the Presidents negated the efforts and perseverance of senior captains Colin McKenzie and Tyler Genereux, who were both battle tested in their individual matches, but refused to let their first personal losses of the season be at the hands of a league opponent. Quincy got off to a good start when they sent senior heavyweight Taylor Radcliffe to the mat and he went unopposed, giving the hosts an early 6-0 lead. Tim Donoghue continues to be frustrated when opposing coaches choose to bump up their 103 lb. grappler, rather than have them face one of the South Shore’s best in the Duxbury junior. That was the case on Wednesday night, giving the visitors an easy six points. Fortunately for Duxbury, freshman Brendan Gillis spoiled Quincy’s game plan when he got the first takedown, and eventually recorded a first-period pin over freshman Selma Ghoudey in the 112 lb. weight class. Fellow freshman Mikkel Linskey may not have gotten the win or the pin in the 119 lb. weight class against Quincy senior Tyler Balcam, but the scrappy underclassman earned a moral victory by refusing to get pinned in a hardfought 13-1 loss that could have affected the outcome of the match. With the score 12-10, Quincy junior captain and #4-ranked Josh Gerry wasted little time getting six points and giving the Presidents the lead when he pinned junior Colin Connolly in 19 seconds in the 125 lb. match-up. That match set up two consecutive forfeits by Quincy in the 130 lb. and 135 lb. weight classes, giving the Dragons their biggest lead of the night at 24-16, and setting the stage for the highlight match between #4-ranked Paul Reggiannini at 145 and #5 ranked Colin McKenzie in the 140 lb. weight class.

CRUNCH TIME: Duxbury senior captain Colin McKenzie stacks his Rockland opponent earlier this month en route to a pin. McKenzie and senior captain Tyler Genereux remain undefeated and improved to 17-0 on the season after this past weekend’s action.

Reggiannini cut down to 140 for the match, and got the first takedown and a 2-0 lead. McKenzie escaped to cut the lead in half, but another Reggiannini takedown had the Duxbury senior captain down 4-1 at the end of the first period. McKenzie earned a onepoint escape at the start of the second period, but still trailed 4-2 going into the third and final period. The two wrestlers quickly exchanged reversals to the delight of the crowd, but the Quincy senior captain couldn’t McKenzie from escaping from bottom twice in the last minute of the period, giving the Duxbury star a thrilling 7-6 win. With the momentum seemingly in Duxbury’s favor, Zach Sanchez faced off against Quincy senior Scott Griffin. Unfortunately for Duxbury, Sanchez fought an uphill battle from the start when Griffin mounted an early 6-1 lead. The Dragon senior would get within three points in the second period, but that was as close as he would get before getting pinned in the third period. With a 27-22 lead, senior captain Johnny Barrett made quick work of Quincy sophomore Tommy Meng with a first period pin, giving the Dragons some breathing room with four matches to go. That set up a shocker in the 160 lb. weight class when Quincy senior captain Dan Quinn faced off against Duxbury junior John McGeady. McGeady started strong with a first-period takedown, but Quinn quickly reversed, sunk his legs in, and turned the junior grappler to earn a critical pin. With the score now 33-28, senior captain Tyler Genereux was hoping to silence the crowd when he took the mat against senior captain Zach Manning in the 171 lb. weight class. Genereux got the first takedown, but Manning got

an escape before the Duxbury captain took Manning to the mat again. The Quincy captain would get another escape closing the gap to 5-2 at the end of one. Down by three, Manning chose bottom, and got a rare two-point reversal against Genereux, cutting the lead to 5-4. Feeling confident after a quick escape, Genereux went for another takedown, but a costly move gave Manning the two points, tying the match at 6-6. With ten seconds remaining in regulation, the #9-ranked Genereux escaped with a dramatic 7-6 win to remain unbeaten. In the 189 lb. weight class Duxbury senior Pat Murphy took the mat against Quincy senior Steve Kamb. After giving up a takedown, Murphy escaped only to have Kamb take him down again. Murphy fought for the escape, and cut the lead to two, but another takedown by Kamb put the match out of reach for the Dragon senior, who came up on the short end of a 6-2 decision. That set up the final match of the night and Quincy’s last chance at stealing a victory. The Dragons put their fate in the hands of senior Jake Roumacher in the 215 lb. matchup against Quincy senior Liam Keough. With a 5-point Duxbury lead, the Dragons could only lose the match if Roumacher got pinned. The Quincy grappler was determined to do just that, as he took Roumacher down in a headlock, pinning him and dashing the Dragons’ hope of a Patriot League crown. On Saturday, the Dragons beat Waltham and The Brooks School of Andover before losing a close contest to host North Andover. Winning all three of their matches were McKenzie (145), Genereux (171), senior captain Justin Carroll (130), and senior Zach Sanchez (140).

Rule 23 of the MIAA handbook states that “The MIAA does not in any way sanction, encourage, or condone “Captain’s Practice” in any sport.” For this reason, Duxbury High School does not sanction any out of season practices of this sort or allow of its coaching staff to be involved in Captains’ Practices. Therefore, Duxbury High School is not liable for injuries or other issues that arise at these types of gatherings. Rule 41 of the MIAA handbook states that “Student participation in out-of season activities may not be funded in any way by booster clubs or organizations.” This includes all parent groups that are established to fund raise for any individual sport. For example, the 3- point club could not pay for DHS students to play in a fall basketball league, and the Gridiron Club could never pay for students to take part in a summer ing league. If found in violation of this rule the sport could be ruled ineligible for tournament play and possibly worse, sanctions can be applied toward the athletic department and coaching staff.

There appears to be a widely believed myth that students must participate in Captains’ Practices in order to make a team. This is absolutely false. However, it is widely known that many sports hold out of season practices where individuals may choose to work on their skills outside of the normal sport season. Many students choose these types of workouts in hopes of becoming better skilled in order to impress their coaches at tryouts. Students vying for positions on Duxbury High School teams are permitted at least three tryout sessions for those sports that hold tryouts before any student can be cut from a team. It would be logical to get in shape before the first day of tryouts. There appears to be a widely believed myth that students must participate in Captains’ Practices in order to make a team. This is absolutely false. Rule 40.4 of the MIAA handbook states that “A coach may not directly or indirectly require an athlete to participate in a sport or a training program outside of the MIAA defined sport season.” If anyone can prove that a coach used attendance or ability shown at Captains’ Practices as a reason for a student to make or be cut from the team, that coach would be in violation of MIAA rules. There are exceptions to some out of season parameters that are described in detail in the MIAA handbook. The handbook is viewable on the MIAA website: www.miaa. net. Rules such as the 50 percent rule for out of season coaching and rules for individual sports (golf, swimming, etc) are explained in detail. In all cases of our coaching staff are made aware of these rules at various times throughout the year, and are encouraged to read the MIAA handbook so that they better understand all of the rules and regulations of our high school athletic association. If anyone has any questions concerning these regulations, feel free to the athletic department by phone, 781-934-7668, or via e-mail at [email protected]. ma.us.

Lady Dragons hit a rut in the ice By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor [email protected]

The girls’ hockey team saw its unbeaten streak come to a halt last week when it lost a 3-0 decision to a surprising combo team from W-H/Pembroke. The loss left the girls with a 6-1-1 record, and wasn’t a good way to prep for a game with defending state champion, Hingham, on Saturday afternoon at The Bog. girls’ hockey

While the girls started the year on the fast track, their performances since Christmas Day haven’t been as dominating, as they hit a scoring slump entering the mid-season. A 5-1 loss to Hingham shouldn’t have anyone panicking, but it does show that the team has a ways to go before it can be considered in the top echelons of girls’ hockey in Massachusetts.

They looked like they may have arrived in the first period against the Harborwomen after they survived a Hingham score in the first 37 seconds of the game, but it was all down hill after that. A Christine Bowler goal on a difficult angle squeezed past goaltender Julia Hannon when the shot bounced high off Hannon’s shoulder and dropped behind the junior netminder for a quick 1-0 lead. Duxbury missed a glittering opportunity at the 8:10 mark, but made up for it less than two minutes later when sophomore Brianna Connolly picked up a lose puck in a scramble in front of goalie Beth Findley and picked the top corner to tie the game at 1-1. The Lady Dragons would have two more power-play chances in the period, but couldn’t muster much of an offense, and then hung on for the rest of the period and escaped an apparent Hingham goal as the puck squirted behind Han-

that the roof caved in, as second period goals by Rebecca Murphy, Stephanie Invernizzi, and Bowler gave the Harborwomen a commanding 4-1 lead late in the period. Before the period was over, both teams would rattle shots off the post, even though Duxbury had a two-man advantage on the power-play. Hingham would miss a wide open net early in the final 15 minutes, but it mattered little, as they controlled the action throughout the period by keeping the puck in the Duxbury end. After dominating the final period, the Harborwomen

scored their final goal of the night when Invernizzi was all alone in front with 1:58 remaining and slipped her shot inside the left post. “I was a lot more happy with the effort tonight than I was against Whitman-Hanson,” said Coach Friend Weiler. “We certainly stayed with them in the first period, and had a hiccup in the second, and we had a close third period as well. We’re a young team and we still need to work on some things.” The girls will have another tough game on Saturday night when they entertain Franklin at 3:30 p.m. at The Bog.

Three swimmers were double event winners, as Hunter Chaisson aced the 200-yard freestyle in a State qualifying time of 1:57.00, five seconds ahead of Art Su (2nd). The senior co-captain also stroked his way to a win in the 100-yard backstroke (58.00) to beat Ike Fontaine (2nd) and Ben Zelvis (3rd). Bernardo Neves got in on the funk, making a Sectional cut in the 200-yard individual medley (2:16.29), nosing out Cam Crowell and Lucas Wojciekowski. The Brazilian barracuda also touched out Crowell in the 500-yard freestyle after swimming stroke for stroke for 20 laps. Ben Potash was fourth in the event. Barry Su sprinted to two

victories, taking first in the 50-yard freestyle over Drew Husted and Drew Cooper. Su also splashed to first in the 100-yard freestyle (54.88), nipping Pat Sullivan and Chris Kimball. Jon Ng was never challenged in the 100-yard butterfly, as he cruised to a win (1:00.87), and Art Su won the 100-yard breaststroke in a tight race over senior cocaptain Andrew Summer and Wojciekowski. Duxbury motored to wins in the 200-yard medley relay with Chaisson, Barry Su, Ng and Art Su, while Ng, White, Wojciekowski, and Crowell won the 200-yard freestyle by three seconds. Chaisson, Crowell, Art Su and Neves teamed to win the 400-yard freestyle. A day after their victory on the Cape, the Dragons traveled to Pembroke where they won every event in 65-50 win. Crowell was double trouble, stopping Pembroke in the 200-yard individual medley (2:15.40) and coasting to first in the 100-yard butterfly (1:01.03) over Brendan Davidson and Zelvis. White provided valuable points in the 500-yard freestyle, outlasting Ng and Potash, while also cruising to the wall first in the 100-yard backstroke (1:08.97) in a personalbest time.

In other individual events Sullivan touched first for the win in the 100-yard freestyle ahead of Andrew Gilmore and John Shayne. Husted zipped to first in the 200-yard freestyle, while Jason Lijewski sprinted to the wall (27.25) in the 50-yard freestyle, just touching out Jeff Terizzi (27.75). Zelvis won the 100-yard breaststroke in 1:18.09. Ian White won the diving competition scoring 123.73 points. Duxbury relays continued to do their job, as Husted, Art Su, Barry Su and White won the 400-yard freestyle relay by a whopping 27 seconds. However, it wasn’t as

easy for White, Wojciekowski, Davidson and Art Su, who had to swim up to edge out Crowell, Zelvis, Ng and Terizzi by a half second. Crowell, Husted, Art Su and Ng combined to win the 200-yard freestyle relay. The Dragons came home to meet Quincy/North Quincy on Thursday and left little doubt that they were the league leader. Getting off to a fast start, the Dragons held a 46-point lead by the sixth event and cruised to a 93-73 win. Even after a grueling week, Neves continues to turn heads, as he burned yet another personal best (51.12) in the 100yard freestyle, and dusted the field in the 200-yard freestyle

Veteran Goldberg doubled up to win both the 100-yard backstroke ahead of teammates Mary Courtney Madigan and Hillary Chatlin, and the 200yard individual medley, nosing out Pipp and Dudley. Riddle dusted everyone in the 100-yard butterfly, winning by more than 12 seconds in a sectional qualifying time, with

Sweeney taking second and Coghlan in third. The freshman phenom also motored to a 2:09.13 win in the 200-yard freestyle. Sam Tougas continues to perform well in the diving competition, as she once again scored higher than the Sectional qualifying time with a 164.25 to take first. Kelly Masgul took second in the event.. Dudley coasted to a win in the 100-yard freestyle, touching out Andrea Celino and Jessica Stayton. The 500-yard freestyle featured a Duxbury sweep with Husted, Chatlin and Madigan, while Sweeney won the 100yard breaststroke (1:21.12) over Katie Brasington (2nd). True to form, the Duxbury relay teams won all three races. Sweeney, Lauren Wilson, Lindsay Jordan and Celino zipped to first in the 200-yard medley relay, while Husted, Pipp, Hutchinson and Riddle won the 200-yard freestyle relay. Pipp, Riddle, Hutchinson and Goldberg teamed to finish out the meet with a win in the 400-yard freestyle. After two road meets in three days, the Lady Dragons returned home to the Percy Walker Pool to rout Quincy/ North Quincy by 19 points,

(1:55.72) with Barry Su taking second and White placing third. Crowell just missed the state cut by a mere 9/100 of a second in the 500-yard freestyle, winning the event over Ng and Potash. White got his blue ribbon in the 100-yard backstroke (1:09.16), nipping out Davidson and Sullivan. The 200-yard individual medley featured a horserace between Art Su and Ng, as the two raced stroke for stroke to a photo finish. When the splashing stopped, it was Su by 4/10 of a second, with Potash in third. Wojciekowski zoomed to a State qualifying time in the 100-yard butterfly (58.34), while Chaisson matched it with his fourth state cut in the 100yard breaststroke (1:06.25). Husted was the top finisher in the 50-yard freestyle over Cooper and John Shayne. Chaisson, Sommer, Ng, and Neves outdid their previous best in the 200-yard medley relay (1:50.33) to win the event, with White, Duncan Edgar, Ng and Husted topping the field in the 400-yard freestyle relay. After a week of well deserved rest, the Dragons travel to Randolph on Tuesday, before coming home on Thursday to host an always tough BC High squad.

Swimmers Improve to 6-1

By Candida Brush Clipper contributor

The Duxbury girls’ swim team took two of three meets last week to better its season record to 6-1. After dropping a tough meet against Barnstable (74-96), the Lady Dragons rallied to trump Pembroke the following day, 88-74 and Quincy/North Quincy (98-79) two days later. girls’ swimming

Duxbury managed just three wins against the Red Raiders, despite several season-low and State qualifying times, with all three relay teams stepping up to establish new lows. Kaitlin Buckley, Kassie Sweeney, Avery Riddle and Emily Hutchinson posted a season- low of 2:02.18 to lead off the day, but it wasn’t enough to catch Barnstable, as they settled for second.

In the 200-yard freestyle relay, Hutchinson, Gaby Pipp, Laura Husted and Sarah Goldberg erased three seconds off their previous best (1:48.75). However, despite a terrific effort, they were touched out at the wall. Even with a 30-point deficit, Duxbury went into the 400-yard freestyle relay determined to race well and they did, with Riddle, Pipp, Buckley and Goldberg churning out a season-low 3:57.13 to take first in the event. The only individual event winners of the day were Buckley and Goldberg. Buckley zoomed to a State qualifying 1:16.53 win in the 100-yard breaststroke, while Goldberg cruised to a 5:41.72, more than 20 seconds ahead of the field. Freestyle sprinter Hutchinson notched a season best time in the 50-yard freestyle with a time of 26.41 for second, just ahead of Pipp (3rd) and Husted (4th). In the 100-yard freestyle, Katelyn Coghlan also qualified for the State championships (57.03), just missing the top spot by a second, while Hutchinson raced a seasonlow 59.56 (3rd) with Pipp in fourth (59.96). Other top finishers were

while winning nine of 12 events. The blue ribbons were spread around, as seven swimmers took top honors. Several close races highlighted the meet, as Buckley barely touched out Goldberg in the 200-yard freestyle by only 1/10 of a second, while Husted inched out Dudley by two seconds in the 50-yard freestyle. In other action, Brady floated to a win in the 100-yard butterfly and Pipp stroked her way to the wall in the 100-yard freestyle ahead of Brasington and Laura Nelson. Goldberg glided to an easy win in the 500-yard freestyle and Riddle won the 100-yard backstroke. Tougas flipped and twisted to a season-high 173.10, topping the State qualifying score, with Masgul and Brady completing the sweep. Duxbury won the 200yard medley relay, as Buckley, Davis, Riddle and Hutchinson topped teammates Mary Kate Blanchard, Maddie Aglow, Celino and Catrine Sigstadstoe. The Lady Dragons have a week off before a pair of road trips with Randolph and Scituate/Cohasset ends the January schedule.

Dragon basketball makes it 12 straight wins By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor [email protected]

The Dragons broke from their normal routine of Tuesday and Friday night games, hosting Patriot League rival Randolph (2-8) on Martin Luther King Day. Despite the afternoon affair, Duxbury maintained its perfect record with a hardearned 68-58 win over an inspired Blue Devil squad. BOYS’ Basketball

Mark Brust (35 pts.) continues to light it up for the Dragons, as his 19 first-half points gave the Dragons a 3830 halftime lead. The Blue Devils were intent on stopping Brust, but their aggressive defense sent the Duxbury All-Star to the foul line repeatedly in the first few minutes, as he nailed six free throws and a basket to give the hosts an 8-4 lead. The lead would grow to 17-8, as Ian Whitney contributed four points, but a threepoint bomb from Jason Toussaint would get the visitors rolling. A 14-2 run fueled by the play of Guerby Despage Jr turned the game around in a little over three minutes, giving Randolph a 22-19 lead at

Brigham makes Norwich Hall of Fame In November, Lieutenant Colonel David Brigham of Duxbury was inducted into the Norwich University Athletic Hall of Fame for his contributions to Norwich University’s football and wrestling programs. Last year he was inducted into the Bridgton Academy Athletic Hall of Fame for his many football achievements, such as being named captain of the team in 1984. He s his father, Donald, All American-Football, and his brother, John, All American-Wrestling, in the Norwich University Athletic Hall of Fame; making for the only father-son-son combination of 161 inductees since 1819. Dave’s younger brothers have also accomplished a great deal on the football field. Jeremy played tight end with the Oakland Raiders from 1998-2003, and Andrew was a captain and stand-out defensive tackle for the San Diego Aztecs from 20012005. After graduating from Norwich in 1988, Dave accepted a commission as a Second Lieutenant in the

and a Brust trey would make it 29-27, putting Duxbury ahead. A 9-3 run lead by Brust and junior Aaron Kramer allowed the Dragons to pull away in the final two minutes of the half. The lead grew to 50-36 midway through the third quarter, as Brust and Kramer continued to do damage inside. However, it didn’t prevent Randolph from fighting back, as Despage and Crystopher Jackson combined for six straight points to cut the lead to 50-42. Holding a 55-44 lead after three quarters, things were looking comfy for the Dragons, especially after Brust hit a pair of buckets to start the fourth quarter for a 15-point lead. The Blue Devils dug in defensively and got Duxbury out of synch, running up and down the court and firing away for an 11-0 run that suddenly had the Dragons holding on to

Brust broke the Randolph run with a basket to make it 61-55, but a Casal three-point swish from the right wing put the final nail in the Randolph coffin at 64-55 with 1:05 to go. “Our first quarter was awful, and the second quarter was great (8 pts.),” said Cushing. “We had a pretty good third quarter, but that last quarter just wasn’t smooth. They gave us a lot of trouble and I think playing in the daytime was a little funky.” While Brust lead the team in scoring with 35, including 11 of 13 from the line, Duxbury also got solid offensive contributions from Kramer (11) and Brian Grossman (10). Next up for Duxbury is a Friday night battle with the Bulldogs in Rockland at 6:30 p.m.

Duxbury on ice

Ice coats the rocks and the water at the harbor where very few ventured out. Iced marshes provided a vision of beauty as the temperatures warmed to the teens last week.

Ice and snow coat the pilings on piers all along the coast.

Rock walls were coated with snow and ice and ducks swam around the ice floes.

The powder point bridge is all dressed up in white trim displaying a beautiful sight for all that braved the frigid weather.
