Cohasset had averaged close to 40 points per game in the South Cyan sectionals, but the Spartans held the Skippers to one field goal and one very late (1:28 remaining) Magenta touchdown to lock up their berth in the Super Bowl to be played at Gillette Stadium. There were huge plays on both Yellow sides of the ball, including a key, third-down one-on-one tackle by freshman Xavier Copeland Black on Cohasset running back Gray Thomas that forced the Skippers into a field goal situation. “That was a nice play on their draw,” said St. Mary’s head coach Sean Driscoll. “He’s played great on both sides of the football, at center and noseguard. That was The 2018 Super Bowl-bound St. Mary’s Spartans, pictured after their win over the Cohasset Skippers, 22-11, on Saturday at Hormel Stadium in the biggest defensive stand of the Medford.

Thanksgiving is the ultimate family-centered holiday. It has no na- tional-celebration connotations, and no required gift-giving. It lacks the commercialism, solemnity, and political overtones of all of our other national observances. It’s a day for schoolboy football, family gatherings, and not much else to do other than enjoy a great dinner with those whom we love and care about. It is the only day on the calendar when we have no obligation other than to spend the day with those who mean the most to us. It asks nothing more from each of us (other than for the person who is doing all the cooking!) beyond just showing up and enjoying the company of our family and friends and then having a great meal. Even in this time of divisiveness in our country, we all can agree that Thanksgiving makes us aware of what we have to be thankful for. Despite our present trials and tribulations, Americans are remarkably Black fortunate to be where we are. Thanksgiving is a national celebration that serves to remind us how blessed we are at a time when circum- GUEST OP-ED stances are so cruel for so many others in the world.

    ‘LOVE’S CHRISTMAS JOURNEY’ CAST BIOS SEAN ASTIN (Mayor William Wayne) – Sean Astin is one of Hollywood's most respected young actors with a distinctive list of projects and credits. Astin starred as beloved Sam Gamgee in the Academy Award®-winning "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy." The three films have grossed over $3 billion worldwide and have entered the history books of classic cinema. Astin has just recently signed up for Nickelodeon‟s re-launch of “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.” He will lend his voice to Raphael in the latest animated incarnation of the hugely successful franchise which premieres in fall 2012. Currently, he is lending his voice to Playhouse Disney‟s “Special Agent Oso.” Astin stars as a lovable, bumbling special agent-in-training who enlists viewers at home to help complete his missions. Premiering fall 2011, Astin heads an all star cast in “And They‟re Off,” an independent comedy about thoroughbred horseracing that also stars Kevin Nealon, Cheri Oteri and Martin Mull. Astin also has two other comedies in the can: “Stay Cool” about an older man‟s homecoming whose cast includes Winona Ryder, Chevy Chase, Hillary Duff and more, and “Demoted” in which Astin plays a mean-spirited prank whose victim becomes his boss. Adding to his seemingly boundless list of occupations, Astin released his acting memoir titled There and Back Again: An Actor's Tale. The book opened at #1 on the New York Times Best- seller list, putting him on the map as a true literary story-teller as well as the unabashed screen actor audiences fall in love with again and again.
