Formerly of Spencer, Gagne now trav- els the country to perform, in addition to working in the daytime television, film, and voice-over industries. Whether he is writing, recording, or touring, Gagne dedicates his life to sharing a unique style with audiences across America. “It seems as an artist, I am starting to come into my own style which continu- ally evolves,” said Gagne, who attend- ed the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston. “I believe style and variety are so important to an artist.” An accomplished pianist by the time he was 19, Gagne made the most of his opportunities to immerse himself in music as a child. The countless hours he committed to practice have enabled him to seamlessly shift from one musi- cal endeavor to the next. “I recall at the age of 9, the elementary school I attended introduced the option to play an instrument,” Gagne said. “From the moment the music teacher explained the various instruments and the opportunity to be in a larger ensem- Courtesy photo ble, I knew I would enjoy it.

The captains from both teams sat at the same table, enjoying light conver- sation, laughter and a hearty, tradi- tional holiday meal together. In four more days, Tantasqua and Shepherd Hill would be having a big game on Thanksgiving morning, so the Rotary Club members and head coaches were impressed by the mature, civil behavior the two teams displayed. Sturbridge Rotary Club President Larry Mandell said this is the third year of the tradition. He said the night was about celebrating the two teams and a way for the club to give back to the community, something they are fond of doing. “Whoever wins the Thanksgiving game gets a trophy that’s sponsored by the club,” he said. “We hold it for seven days. That gives us time to watch the game, see who wins, bring the tro- phy to our engraver, engrave the score Tantasqua head coach Joseph Beveridge touched upon the importance of sportsmanship and lessons learned from football. and then finally present the trophy to the captains and coach of the winning team.” scheme of life, wins and losses don’t children. agreements or any differences they may The winning team then gets to hold matter.

BY OLIVIA RICHMAN NEWS STAFF WRITER CHARLTON — Seventy-nine Bay Path seniors were presented with the John & Abigail Adams scholarship at a celebratory breakfast Monday, Nov. 24. According to Superintendent John Lafleche, this is the largest amount of seniors to have ever received the schol- arship. “It shows our faculty is working hard with our students and that the students are committed to their own education,” Lafleche said. “I’m proud of everybody that’s here. All of our staff works hard and the results are showing.” In order to receive the scholarship, students needed to score as “advanced” in at least one category and have scored as “proficient” in the other on their MCAS exams. The test, which they took as sophomores, focuses on English and mathematics. Lafleche said some stu- dents were advanced in both categories. Before the students could dig in to the breakfast — which consisted of pan- cakes, sausage, muffins and eggs, all prepared by Bay Path’s culinary stu- State Senator-elect Anne Gobi stopped by to congratulate the recipients. dents — each student was recognized for their achievement individually.

WOLVERINES continued from page 1 struck for his second scoring play of the half with a 25-yard touchdown to extend the lead to 14-0. Six minutes later, Golden completed a persistent drive for the Panthers by pushing into the end zone on third- and-1 to cut the Wolverines’ lead to eight. A failed two-point conversion attempt left the Panthers trailing 14-6 at halftime, a score that would prevail for the remainder of the game. “Mott played a great game. That was our game plan going in — to win or lose with Shawn Mott,” Griffiths said. “It was a great way to end a senior career.” The second half featured solid defense from both sides, with Mother Nature serving as an extra man to trip up offen- sive players. For the Panthers (5-6), falling behind early on the road proved costly in a contest with such challeng- ing field conditions. David Prouty put together some promising first half drives, but they couldn’t gain much traction — sometimes literally — after halftime. “We had a little bit of a miscommuni- cation on where we were supposed to fit there,” said Panthers head coach Nate Orzech of his team’s missed defensive coverage on Leicester’s opening touch-

Trophies were handed out following the game, including the Battle of Breezy Bend hardware, which was collected by Wolverines seniors. With a 26-18 victory last year, Leicester has now topped the Panthers by eight points in two straight Thanksgiving Day contests and will take their winning streak to Spencer next year. “We’re looking forward to having a good offseason,” said Griffiths, who is excited about next year’s team, which will lose only four seniors from the 2014 squad.

BY MICHAEL CORSO SPORTS CORRESPONDENT STURBRIDGE — The seniors on the Shepherd Hill Regional football team had aspirations to get back to Gillette Stadium for the second time in three seasons and potentially win a Division 4 state championship. While that dream faded in a loss to perennial powerhouse Wahconah Regional in the state semifi- nals, one goal still loomed large enter- ing the final week of their high school careers. That was to never lose to Tantasqua Regional, their longtime Thanksgiving Day rival. One of those seniors, Drew Jean- Guillaume, made sure a loss would not happen, as he paced the Rams with 196 yards rushing and three touchdowns at the Reservation en route to being named the offensive player of the game in a 22-6 victory, which marked the 41st Thanksgiving Day meeting between the two programs. “It’s been a huge rivalry,” said Jean- Guillaume, who moved from his quar- terback position to running back for the game. “I just wanted this game so
