NEWPORT–With the season getting underway this afternoon, the North Country boys tennis team is ripe with promise.
"We've got a good blend of upper and underclassman this year," said head coach Gary Atchinson.

Cazian Comeau-Elman was lone wrestler to take home the gold, wrestling in the 44 lb. weight class.
