Boys Track Tops Class B Meet
By Ellen Oliver
Nashoba boys track (4-1 in the regular season) blew away the competition in the Class B championship in Shrewsbury on Saturday. The boys’ won with 1124.2 points, far ahead of second place finisher Auburn with 98.3 points. In Lunenburg, the girls’ team (5-0) placed third with 65 points at their Class B meet.
Nashoba had a few off-track obstacles including injuries and prom the night of the event. The meet also caps the number of events each athlete can enter, which usually works in Nashoba’s favor, said boys coach Jim Nosel. “Strategy plays a part for coaches and it evens things out some. There’s not one kid doing a lot,” he said.

And, if a recent hour-long conversation with the animated Coley points to anything, it’s to an evening of old and new songs and stories from just about anywhere.
