Undefeated week for Bulldogs
The CHS Boys Soccer team is coming off a week which featured a dramatic 1-0 home win over Taunton High School and a tremendous 1-1 draw at once-beaten Foxboro.
The Taunton game was a bit sloppy overall but the Bulldogs were creating chances all game long- many coming from excellent service on restarts from Jake Verille and Griffin Roach. But the Bulldog were snake-bitten in the box and couldn't manage to test the Taunton netminder. With 2 minutes left in the contest, a Taunton free-kick was well struck and took every bit of goalkeeper skills Abe Garber could muster to keep the ball out of the top corner of the Bulldog net. It was a class save! Shortly after that, Sammy Papakonstantino was taken down inside the Taunton box and Pat Hession calmly buried the Penalty kick, earning the home-side a 1-0 win and improving the team's home record to 3 wins and 1 loss on the season.
The team traveled to 9-1-1 Foxboro (defending Davenport Champions) on Friday and came away with a hard-fought 1-1 draw. The Bulldogs and Warriors struggled to get much going early but by late in the first frame, the visitors seemed to find their stride as a hard-working play by Joey Basile and Paul Corcoran led to a Papakonstantino goal, tying up the game at 1-1 at the half. The Bulldogs created a ton of second half chances but couldn't find the back of the Warrior goal and settled for the 1-1 draw- a strong result for a team who seems to be finding its way.
The Bulldogs look to keep tournament hopes alive as they host Oliver Ames on Tuesday night at 7:00 and travel to Milford at 7:15 Friday night.

Up and down week for Bulldogs
It was a week filled with lots of action and lots of varying emotion as the team went 1-1-1 on the week against hard-nosed Kelley-Rex opponents.
The week started with a home win over Attleboro, 2-1 on Monday. Sammy Papakonstantino scored both Bulldog goals off of passes from the team's leading scorer Ben Waterhouse and Jake Verille. Goalkeeper Abe Garber earned his first career win in just his 3rd start on the season.
Wednesday saw the team travel to Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, home of the New England Revolution (and the Patriots!) for a battle against Kelley-Rex leading and once beaten Mansfield in a huge community event at the incredible venue. After playing a subpar first half, the Bulldogs settled down and started to wear down the heavily favored Hornets. The final 20 minutes of the game was dominated by the Bulldogs but three quality scoring chances in the closing minutes of the game were all turned away by the Hornets and the game ended in a hard-fought 0-0 draw. The week ended on a low note as the team traveled to Franklin to face the 4-time defending Kelley-Rex Champion Panthers. A lackluster first half saw the Bulldogs fall behind, 1-0 at the half before waking up and playing much better soccer in the 2nd half. A Panther goal in the final minute of the rain-soaked game resulted in a 2-0 loss for the Bulldogs.
Many Bulldogs played well on the week but John Agnitti, Matas Leveckis, Paolo Ruggeri, Danny Hartnett and Pat McLaughlin were all particularly strong on the defensive side of the ball.
