Spencer Fish and Game Club holds annual fishing derby

David Dore photos Deven Coran, 6, of Spencer looks at a rainbow trout that was caught on Saturday, the first day of the derby.

Fishing poles line the shore of the pond at the Spencer Fish and Game Club, waiting for a bite.

SPENCER — In a tradition stretching back decades, the Spencer Fish and Game Club held its annual spring fishing derby Saturday, April 27 and Sunday, April 28. About 550 fish were placed in the club’s pond at the end of Mechanic Street for people to catch. They included a 5-pound rainbow trout, 10 golden trout (which earned a $25 prize for anyone catching one of them) and 20 fish with tags on them (which earned a $35 prize). “This is probably the biggest derby we’ve ever had,” said derby chairman and club board member Ken Collette, later adding, “This is our biggest event of the year.” Trophies and cash awards were given to children who caught the biggest fish. Any kid who participated got a prize and, if they’re 12 years old or under, a free T-shirt. And if they wanted to do something else, they could have their face painted, have some food, or shoot archery.

BY JON GOUIN SPORTS CORRESPONDENT GRAFTON — Although it start- ed late and ended early, the Leicester High softball team found a way to play between and among the raindrops against Grafton High, the defending Central Mass. Division 2 district and state champions, on May 8. The game was called after five innings of play amidst a massive downpour and the Wolverines boarded their team bus with a huge 2-1 win. Leicester, the 2011 district champs, fell behind after two innings of play when Michelle Goulet came around to score on a groundout. Wolverines starting pitcher Lauren Tuiskula would not give up anything else to the Indians on the day, though, so it would come down to Leicester’s offense. After a brief rain delay, the teams re-took the field in the third inning and the Wolverines went to work. The frame started with a Kelly Shea (1 for 2, walk, run) sin- gle up the middle off Grafton starter Kendal Roy. Roy bounced back to get a strikeout, but a Tuiskula single and a passed ball eventually scored Shea to tie the game at 1-1.

BY NICK ETHIER SPORTS STAFF WRITER LEICESTER — As it has been well docu- mented, the Southern Worcester County League (SWCL) West division will provide two teams to the Central Mass. district tournaments, regardless of record. It appears that none of the five teams in the division will compile 10 or more victories — the normal grounds for postseason inclusion — but two will be playoff-bound nonetheless. When Leicester High hosted Southbridge High on May 13, it was a cru- cial game for the Wolverines to win and keep their hopes up of being one of those top two teams. “We still have a few SWCL games so hopefully we can put a few [wins] together and hopefully they beat up on each other,” Leicester head coach Fred LaFlash said of the rest of the competition. “We haven’t helped ourselves either. We need to play complete games.” The Wolverines played a close to com- plete game against the Pioneers, grabbing a 16-0 lead and winning a 22-7 decision. Leicester is now 4-10 overall and 2-9 in SWCL play. The Wolverines still trail Quaboag, David Prouty and Bartlett High in the SWCL West, but the gap has closed. Nick Ethier photos Southbridge, the final team in the SWCL West, is now 0-14. Above, Leicester’s Stephen Kustigian belts a second inning single.

2013 Toyota RAV4 a Great Example of Crossover Succession Planning Done Right

BY KEITH GRIFFIN In a misguided attempt to pump up my always challenged professional self- esteem (a hazard of the generally unloved journalism trade), I position myself as a dual threat in that I write primarily about automobiles and busi- ness, which come together in a review of the 2013 Toyota RAV4. The 2013 Toyota RAV4 is the original crossover sport utility vehicle. Hard to believe, but it's now in its 4th genera- tion. As the original crossover, the new RAV4 comes from a long of success. And that's when my business jour- nalist side popped up. Toyota, just like any other automotive manufacturer and business in general, needs to come up with a succession plan every time it introduces a new version of a wildly successful model. That succession planning has paid off with the Toyota RAV4. The first smart step in the succession plan was making the RAV4 available with only a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine, which produces 176 SAE net horsepower at 6000 rpm and 172 lbs-ft. of torque at 4,100 rpm. The optional V6 of the previous-gener- ation RAV4 has been discontinued. (That's to stop it from competing with the Highlander.) It's good succession planning when you don't cannibalize The 2013 Toyota RAV4 gets remodeled on the outside for a more fluid look, a larger interior, and better fuel economy from a new six-speed automatic one product at the expense of another. transmission.
