  • Cheverus Stags 2010 Fall Sports Preview

    Aug 30, 2010 11:20 am

    Cheverus' fall sports teams excelled in 2009 and should be in the mix across the board this time around. Football fell one point short of a trip to the state game last autumn. With several key players returning, the Stags could go all the way. Boys' soccer figures to be improved and will be one of the better teams in the league. The girls' team is always in the hunt and is seeking to end its Gorham hex once and for all. Field hockey also came oh-so-close to a state game appearance in 2009. While the Stags were hard hit by graduation, they'll be a factor in October.
