The HMS softball team lost to Litchfield. Charlotte B, Shea St. O and Lydia U all had singles. Nice defensive plays by Jaylen L and Ashtyn E.
B Lacrosse beat Rundlett yesterday in their home opener. The Hawks offense was once again led by Quinn B along with Chase H who had his first hat trick. Matteo M earned himself the Game Ball with his leadership + control at the face off X while Avery D and the tenacious defense held Rundlett to minimal scoring opportunities. A big shout out to Austin F and Jack W who scored their first career goal at HMS. Nice work boys!
Shea St. O went 3 for 3 driving in the winning run in the bottom of the 6th inning. Ashlyn E had two hits with one being a double. Emily N got it done on the mound, striking out 10 and giving up only one hit. The Hawks won 3-2.
Girls Lacrosse had another win while playing at home against Rundlett 17-0. There were many girls that had their “first goals” of their middle school career such as: Gracie P., Abby E., Nora B., Elizabeth P., and Eloise J with other goals scored by Brinn O, Julia F., Sydni B, Emelia S., and Lea M. Our defense, led by Emily S, Catalina S, Willow and Tessa M. held strong any time the ball was on the defensive side of the field causing many forced turnovers and moved the ball to the offensive side of the field. Tess M had 3 amazing quarters and Emmy E held strong in the 4th.
On opening day for the baseball team, the Hawks suffered a loss to Londonderry. Despite the loss, playing well for HMS was Landon C, Patrick K and Tyler G. Come support your baseball team on Tues when they play their 1st home game of the season at Depot Road vs Raymond at 3:30.

HCS One School, One Book - whole school read!
For four weeks all students and staff at HCS will read "The Sasquatch Escape" by Suzanne Selfors. This story follows a boy named Ben who is facing the most boring summer vacation ever. He is staying with his grandfather he hardly knows in a rundown town called Buttonville. But then the family cat brings home an injured baby dragon so Ben and his new friend Pearl visit the only veterinarian in town and then discover that there is nothing boring about this unusual animal hospital.
