WEBSTER — As part of their Catholic Schools Week celebration, the stu- dents of St. Anne School started with a mass at Sacred Heart Parish. Other activities included an open house with tours of the school, a special daily morning prayer involving the entire school, Minute to Win It, a soup and socks collection, bingo and a Prayer Pal Scavenger Hunt. A Mass was held at Sacred Heart Parish on Sunday to finish off the week. The students were also treated to a performance by Mary Jo Maichack, Minstrel Storyteller. This performance was supported in part by a grant from the Webster Cultural Council, a local agency, which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. We would like to express our appreciation for the opportunity to enrich our students with this cultural experience. 8 • The Webster Times • Friday, February 14, 2014 www.webstertimes.net Take time to remove snow from vehicles e have received vary- ation.

Rams sophomore Mike Rapoza had a standout game, posting game-high totals of 20 points and 20 rebounds while being an inside presence defensively with plenty of blocks and altered shots. “We wanted to win this game, get our 10th win against Auburn, SWCL Central — this was a big game for us, especially because we didn’t make the Clark,” the 6-foot-5 Rapoza said.

BY JON GOUIN SPORTS CORRESPONDENT DOUGLAS — The Douglas High boys’ varsity basketball team hosted an interleague matinee on Saturday, Feb. 8, as Bartlett High visited what the poster on the wall of the gymnasium has dubbed “Swag City” in a battle of neighboring, postseason-bound squads. When the final horn sounded, the Indians would be forced to take the short ride home with a 67-51 loss. Playing without a key cog in big man Cam Morin, the Tigers battled their way to a hard-fought and impressive 16-point victo- ry, moving to 12-4 on the season and snapping a two-game losing streak in the process. “We don’t know, but all indi- cations are,” Tigers head coach Shannon Ryan said when asked of Morin’s status and if he was out for the remainder of the year. “He hasn’t had an MRI yet, but it doesn’t look good.” The loss dropped Bartlett to 12-5 and halted a four-game win- ning streak as both teams prepare for the 2014 Clark Tournament, which tips off on Sunday, Feb. 16 in Worcester.

The Minutemen used a half-court trap that combined for 13 steals and produced countless other turnovers, rarely letting the Eagles see an open look at the basket. “We’ve been working on the half-court trap all year long and it’s coming along,” Bay Path head coach John Selen said of a system that he began employing about a month ago, also against Worcester Tech. “The girls are really playing well together and we got a lot out of it tonight.” The defense set the tone early as back- to-back steals and coinciding breakaway layups by Jena Desrouches and Gina Houghton gave the Minutemen a 4-0 lead. “We had a ton of steals. They threw the ball away so we really got a lot out of it,” Selen said. “Our defense is really playing well.” But Worcester Tech hung tough in the first quarter as it was a 6-6 game after the initial eight minutes.

BY KEITH GRIFFIN more than 11 inches. There’s no doubt about it. The 2014 Tundra continues to offer three proven Toyota Tundra lives up to its billing as powertrains, which means the Tundra is a full-size pickup truck. That means it’s not new in the engine compartment. The really a vehicle for people who need a big three are: pickup.
