Announcement of Sporting Event Results
Apologies for the delayed update. I would like to share the outcomes of yesterday's sporting events.
The girls’ soccer team traveled to Eastport. They put up a strong fight but ultimately fell short.

In contrast, the Calais High School boys’ soccer team hosted Searsport for a home game. Brayden Ellsmore opened the scoring, followed by goals from Brock Collins, Tiago Mendez, and Alex Counts. The final score was a solid 4-0 victory for the Calais Blue Devils.

The golf team competed against Narraguagus and Woodland, with Jakob Footer earning the title of medalist by scoring a remarkable 35.

Our volleyball team headed to Machias to face the Bulldogs. The JV Volleyball team secured a win, and the Varsity match was thrilling, with the Blue Devils rallying to win three consecutive sets, clinching the victory.

Congratulations to all teams! Go Big Blue!
