With a final score of 44 to 31, the Nashoba varsity girls dominated the court from the beginning of the game. Lots of action and just plain good playing! While Hudson kept up the pressure and would come close at times, the Chieftains clearly held the day!

It’s that time of year again! The class plays at Nashoba HS – where each class selects a one-act play, the directs, casts, and finally produces a show. Each of the classes then is judged by a panel of judges for “Best Play by a class”.
Freshmen were first with “Oh My God, It’s another Play” by Rich Orloff. Directed by Anna Schab and Meghan Tocci and produced by Jack Dischler – the stage was filled with various actors and actresses – romantic, dramatic, frustrated, melodramatic … the gamut. The Freshmen were followed by the Sophomore class rendition of “Nothing says I Love You like bad poetry” by Werner Trieschmann. Directed by Jane Kirkpatrick, Alex Llanso and produced by Nico Hammill – the story showed a young man (Nico Hammill) in love with a girl (played by Liz Sabourin) but spurned by the girl and her coterie (Hadley Barndollar and Beth Rogers) requesting … no demanding … that he write her a poem. The play took us to a coffee house where the three-headed Goth Creatures, a frustrated teacher, a young woman, podiatrist and plumber all participate in a poetry-slam. The play was wonderfully done – and they won the competition – a very unusual thing for any sophomore class to do when in competition with upperclassmen!
There was much competition from the Junior and Senior classes as well – The juniors produced “Thirteen Ways to Screw up Your College Interview” by Ian McWethy. Directed by Mary Catherine Heelan and produced by Kristen DiBlasi, they featured Adam Tocci and Hannah Groudas as two college interviewers with lots of very quirky college prospects. The show was quite witty Finally, the Seniors performed “The Competition Piece” by John Wells. Directed by Kate Bedding and Rebekah Tobia and produced by Nicole Juul-Hindsgaul – the show followed 3 groups preparing to enter a play competition – from selecting, casting and eventually performing.
