DURHAM - There's not much that can be done in 1.4 seconds, but in Sunday's Division II championship game, it was enough time to swing the outcome. The ConVal Regional High School boys basketball team had that much time at the end of regulation to get a halfcourt heave from Austin Knight, but the ba

EXETER - Charlotte Marston knew she had to move when she saw Mia Edwards go deeper into the circle.

AMHERST - Senior nights typically bring out a range of emotions, and Tuesday night was no different for the Souhegan High School field hockey team.

AMHERST - The Souhegan High School field hockey team knew it might take awhile to break through during Thursday's game against Plymouth.

AMHERST - There was really only one thought running through Mia Edmonds' mind. As the Hanover High School senior lined up to take a penalty stroke with 2.6 seconds left Thursday in a tie game against Souhegan, the only thing she was thinking was that she couldn't miss. Edmonds ripped a shot that ju

AMHERST - No one wore a name tag at the first preseason practice for the Souhegan High School field hockey team. But if someone had, it would have been understood. The Sabers officially returned to the field on Monday with a group of 50 girls looking to help the program reach the Division II final f
