Catalina McBride
Sunday, November 24th, 2019

 

Freshman Riley Allen is currently recovering from an ACL tear that prevented her from participating in the 2019-2020 Basketball season. Riley has been playing basketball since she was just six years old and has put time and dedication into this sport over the past nine years. Whether it’s been shooting baskets in her driveway or watching hours of professional games, Riley has never stopped working hard and figuring out ways to improve her game.

The Freshman Boy’s Cross Country Team was dominant throughout its season this year, consistently placing first in multiple different meets. The roster excelled in their current state and mostly went unchanged going into the winter track season. The freshmen have represented the power of Chatham and showcased their strengths. This was made most apparent, however, with the Morris County Cross Country Championships, where Chatham won first place at forty four points, beating Delbarton by exactly eighteen.

As you have probably heard many seniors say, first semester of senior year is one of the most difficult times in high school. Many seniors during this time period are stressing over college applications and trying to balance that with their regular course load and finish their SAT or ACT exams. Very few have this college weight lifted off their shoulders; however, committed athletes earn that relief of stress early in their senior year. Two committed athletes that are both playing soccer in college are Emily Vinick and Sean Ryan. I asked them a few questions about this year and what led them to their paths of becoming committed athletes.
Chatham Volleyball's Successful Season

Chatham Girls Volleyball had a very successful season this past fall.  They finished their season with a record of 17 and 8, and were able to co-win their conference, sending them into a vicious battle for the state championship.  In the first round of states, the Cougars faced off against Colt’s Neck at home.  Although Colt’s Neck was ranked 13th in the league and Chatham was ranked 14th, Chatham easily pulled off a victory, beating them in two games.  The team then moved on to play West Morris Central, a team that they had beat previously in the season at home.

The Cougar hockey team, one rich in tradition, seemingly has higher expectations for this season than last season. Headed by senior forward Jeff Haley, Chatham has loads of talent on all facets of the team. The Cougars had a rather impressive season last year, making the playoffs but getting eliminated in the third round of state tournament. The team projects to have an even better season this year.

Almost all Chatham residents attend at least one of the weekend’s events, which includes all fall sports. The atmosphere at Cougar Weekend, regardless of which event it is, is incredible.

By now,  many of you have heard of the girls swim team breathtaking accomplishment. Girls swim had won their 100th straight swim meet on January 30th, which took over a course of six seasons. Apparently, the only anxious moment of their 100th win was when one of the critical swimmers, Hannah Womer, a 10th grader, was running late to the meet. However, she made it just in time to help participate in the freestyle relay.

It all started with 8 seconds left in the 4th quarter, away at Randolph. Starting quarterback Alex Sands had gotten injured, so Junior Timmy Adams stepped up to take his place. The unforgettable scramble and pass to wide receiver Robbie Moskowitz sealed the deal on Chatham’s first win of the season. From that moment on, the Chatham Football team has had insane momentum.

In 2014, the Chatham High School baseball team finished with a record of 4-20. In 2015, the Cougars finished their campaign with the same record.

Many would say that this record speaks for itself; that the team did not improve and only experienced much of the same. This, however, is quite the opposite.

March Madness: The Aftermath

Friday, April 10th, 2015
It's that time of the year again, time for the infamous March Madness. A time filled with triumph and misery. Each year, people fill out their brackets with hopes of near perfection, though as the tournament begins and ends, people's high hopes often fall into disappointment. However, in very lucky cases, people are actually somewhat happy with how their brackets turned out.
(Early) Spring Sports Update

Friday, April 10th, 2015
The start of the spring sports season at CHS was quite hectic due to the inclimate weather and lingering snow piles. Cougar and Haas fields were closed which displaced our boys and girls lacrosse teams, forcing many of our spring sports teams to share early practice time on the only clear turf field, Lum. After a few weeks, all the snow was gone and spring sports were back on track in Chatham.
