PRINCETON — In the early goings, it was a virtual addiction to the game of basketball for Wachusett Regional High School senior Kate King. Even as early as grade school, there was a visceral love of the sport percolating just under the surface.

HOLDEN — Most student-athletes who revere their chosen sport(s) do it with a pure love for the game and a desire to take their performances up to the highest level possible. Wachusett Regional High senior co-captain Anthony Zingarella is arguably all of that and quite a bit more.

HOLDEN—Inyears gone by, the Golden Eagles of Springfield Central High have not been kind to your Wachusett Regional High girls’ basketball team. A season ago, the Golden Eagles derailed the Mountaineers’ bid for a Division 1 state title by defeating the green and white, 4536, on their way to a state championship.

WOBURN — Registration for the 41st annual Bay State Summer Games is now open.

HOLDEN — It’s been said in the arena of all things high school sports that defeating an opponent three times in one season is nigh unto impossible, but for the Wachusett Regional High School girls’ varsity basketball team, not so much. The Mountaineer girls perhaps saved their best for last, sending Algonquin Regional home for the offseason with a 67-21 drubbing of the Titans, the third win over them in this 2022-2023 campaign.
