It felt incredible to be able to race again and to cheer for each other again.”
“It was really fun,” said Windham coach Peter Small. “It was great to give them a chance to race. It was bittersweet (for the nine seniors); we were overjoyed to get them to a point where they could race, but sad that it’s the last race. It was nice ... glad we got to race one more time.”
Theberge added a thank you to Cach Small, assistant coach Kevin Roy and athletic director Rich Drummond for their efforts in getting the team together during this time to have a season. <
