Nashua’s newest hockey teams had some good news and bad news on Monday night. The good news: the Souhegan-North-South Storm (girls) picked up their second straight win. The bad news: the North-South Knights (boys) fell on a goal as late as could be to drop to 0-3. Here’s a look at that and a couple of other Monday results: GIRLS HOCKEY SOUHEGAN-NASHUA 5, BEDFORD 4 The Storm blew out to a 4-1 lead after one period, led 5-2 after two and held on to improve to 2-2, led by two goals by Anna Foley. Amelia Warecki, Sophia Wine and Lily […]

NASHUA – It was a war. Yes, Friday night’s high school boys basketball battle between Bishop Guertin and Bedford at the packed Colligadome had everything the Cardinals and their coach Will Horne love – intensity, defense, grit, determination. All except one thing: A winning result on the scoreboard. That went to the Bulldogs by a 57-51 tally that had you wanting more. For BG, it was more points. “That’s exactly what it came down to,” Guertin coach Will Horne said. “We had a lot of the looks that we wanted, the ball didn’t bounce our way tonight. It’s early, there’s […]

GOFFSTOWN – It was a night of history and heartbreak. The first ever game for the Nashua North-South co-op hockey team showed lots of promise as the Knights had a 4-3 lead over Bedford with just under four minutes to play. But the Bulldogs spoiled what would have been a great historical debut with two goals in the final 3:43 to down Nashua 5-4 at Saint Anselm’s Sullivan Arena. “It’s not heartbreaking,” Knights co-coach Chris Zarlenga said. “I think what we did tonight is what we said we were going to do, just work every shift the entire game.” The […]

Several locals were named to the Division I Football All-State Team.

BEDFORD – Jose Munoz, 26, of New Boston, was taken into custody on Dec. 14 following a police pursuit that ended in Bedford. According to State Police, at 12:23 a.m., Trooper Brian Knell observed Munoz in a 2018 BMW 3 Series traveling 123 miles per hour on Interstate 293 north in Manchester. Knell attempted to conduct a traffic stop; however, Munoz allegedly refused to pull over. Traveling west on Rt. 101, Munoz took the Kilton Road exit in Bedford and pulled into a parking lot. Just as troopers arrived at the parking lot, Munoz reportedly fled at a high rate […]

NASHUA – It was in the first half of Nashua North’s boys basketball game vs.Bedford when new Titans head coach Kyle Tave pumped his fist and let out a yell. North’s Andre Kargbo had just taken a hard charge, and it’s exactly what the new coach wanted to see, even in a game that was getting out of reach en route to an 80-50 Bulldog win. “We want to defend, we’ve got to dig our heels in, we’ve got to get after it,” Tave said. “It’s putting yourself on the line for the team. It’s trying to get other people […]

There’s more hockey history to be made this season. Girls players from Souhegan and Nashua North and South had their moment this past weekend, but now its the boys turn. Wednesday night, the first Nashua High School North-South co-op varsity boys hockey team will take the ice for the first time at Saint Anselm’s Sullivan Arena, facing Bedford. The North-South co-op, known as the Knights, leaves the area with just two Division I teams and now two Division II teams. Campbell will co-op with Pembroke, Pembroke being the lead school. While the Knights open in a couple of days, the […]

NASHUA – It’s not supposed to look this way. Usually high school basketball teams are a bit ragged in their season openers, looking much better once the season gets past the midpoint. But the Bishop Guertin High School boys basketball team jumped the gun and looked in mid-season form in rolling over a young Concord team, 97-42 Friday night at the Colligadome. And it certainly won’t be this easy the rest of the way. “We play Portsmouth and Bedford next week,” Cards coach Wil Horne said. “We know exactly how it’s going to be. “It’s a great start for us […]

NASHUA – Several locals are on the 2025 West Conference Football High School All-Star team, released on Thursday.

The head of the Federal Aviation Administration has not sold off his multimillion-dollar stake in the airline he led since 1999 despite a promise to do so as part of his ethics agreement, according to a Democratic senator. In a letter to Bryan Bedford this week, Sen. Maria Cantwell said he vowed to sell all his shares in Republic Airways within 90 of his confirmation but 150 days have now passed. In Bedford’s financial disclosures, he estimated that his Republic stock was worth somewhere between $6 million and $30 million. Republic completed a merger last month with another major regional […]

BEDFORD – More than 500 students from across New Hampshire gathered on Dec. 6 at Bedford High School for the FIRST LEGO League State Championship, a celebration of STEM, teamwork and innovation.

The Blues have dropped eight of their past 11 games. Jordan Binnington made 22 saves in the building where he backstopped St. Louis to a Game 7 win over Boston in the 2019 Stanley Cup Finals. The Bruins took a 2-0 lead […]

NASHUA – And then there was one. There is one more game left in the 2025 New Hampshire high school football season, and that will take place today at Stellos Stadium. But no, no local teams will be playing. It will be No. 1 Bedford (11-0) vs. No. 3, defending champion Pinkerton (8-3) for the Division I state championship. The two teams did not meet in the regular season. Bedford pretty much cruised through the regular season to capture the West Conference, it’s toughest game perhaps a 35-28 win over Bishop Guertin. That was its only win by single digits. […]

Bedford High School’s Brody Helton will come into Nashua’s Stellos Stadium on Saturday vying for the Division I championship already with some hardware-to-be. Helton was named on Thursday as the winner of the New Hampshire Joe Yukica Player of the Year, beating out two local finalists, Nashua South quarterback Cody Jackson and Souhegan running back Ryland Raudelunas. Helton will receive the award, given to the most outstanding NHIAA football player as voted on by NHIAA head coaches and a panel of media members, at the annual Yukica Huddle next Wednesday in Manchester. Helton’s 11-0 Bulldogs take on 9-3 defending champion […]

BEDFORD – Just two days before Thanksgiving, a two-alarm fire tore through 1750 Taphouse causing extensive damage. According to the Bedford Fire Department, while en route, firefighters could see smoke billowing from the business at 170 Rt. 101 and called for a second alarm. Upon arrival, crews encountered heavy fire in the back of the building, which was spreading up the side and into the attic. Firefighters cut holes in the roof for ventilation and to prevent further spread. Employees were preparing to open later that afternoon when the fire broke out. They were all able to evacuate safely. The […]

NEW YORK (AP) — Bedford’s Alex Steeves scored twice and Jeremy Swayman made 44 saves as the Boston Bruins downed the New York Islanders 3-1 on Wednesday night. Tanner Jeannot also scored for the Bruins, who won for just the third time in seven games but completed a three-game sweep over the Islanders this season. Swayman made 23 saves in the third to improve to 10-6-0. The Bruins — who missed the playoffs last season — have started 14-11-0 under first-year coach Marco Sturm.

There will be one more high school football game in Nashua on Saturday for the 2025 season, but it won’t involve any local teams. No, the local high school football season has come to a disappointing end following a lost weekend. Nashua South fell to Bedford 35-21 in the Division I semifinals in Bedford this past Friday night while Souhegan was on the wrong end of a 31-21 score in the Division II championship game in Derry. However, there will be one more game at at Stellos Stadium, the Division I title game Saturday at 1 p.m. featuring No. 1 […]

Line Search Exercise Reminder

There was a smattering of blood. “You saw, there was blood everywhere,” Nashua High School South football coach Josh Porter said. He was talking about a cut suffered by Panthers quarterback Cody Jackson on his throwing hand on Friday’s Division I semifinal’s first series. Maybe that impacted him, maybe it didn’t in the 35-21 loss to No. 1 Bedford at Bulldog Stadium. But it certainly enhanced the Legend of Cody Jackson. He fought through it, nearly brought the Panthers back from a 21-0 deficit, as he threw for 107 yards and ran for 111 and a TD. But he also […]

BEDFORD – The Nashua High School South football team had the Bedford Bulldogs right where they wanted them in Friday night’s Division I semifinal at Bulldog Stadium. And that was with Bedford up 28-7 at halftime. “We were saying all game, we’ve been the Cardiac Cats all season, and we were hoping to pull off another one,” Nashua South football coach Josh Porter said. “Just kind of came up short in the end.” Short to the tune of 35-21, which puts the 11-0 Bulldogs in next Saturday’s Division I title game at Nashua’s Stellos Stadium vs. No. 2 Pinkerton Academy. […]

NASHUA – Josh Porter has taken likely multiple looks at the second half of the Nashua High School South football team’s 34-14 loss to Bedford back on Sept. 13 and can’t believe it’s the same team he’s coaching now. As a matter of fact, it’s not. No, these No. 4, 9-2 Panthers, while the names are the same, are playing much better football 11 weeks later than their September version as they head to Bulldog Stadium for a rematch with No. 1, 11-0 Bedford tonight at 7 in the Division I semifinals. “Just talking with the other coaches, we believe […]

BEDFORD – Cheryl North, 76, of Manchester, sustained serious, life-threatening injuries when her 2023 Chrysler Pacifica collided with a concrete barrier at the Bedford Toll Plaza. According to State Police, troopers responded to the scene at 9:17 a.m. on Nov. 18. North had one adult passenger, who was also seriously injured, as well as three dogs.

And then there were two. That’s all that’s left in teams for the 2025 fall local high school sports and football season. Step right up Nashua High School South and Souhegan, as one will be playing for a championship and the other for the chance to play for a championship. First on Friday, the No. 4 Panthers (9-2) will take on No. 1 Bedford (11-0) in the Division I semifinals at 7 p.m. at Bedford’s Bulldog Stadium. The winner advances to the Nov. 29 Division I title game which, ironically, will be played at Stellos Stadium. Then Saturday at 1 […]

The Final Four in NHIAA Division I football are set. And there is one surprise. Salem knocked off the red-hot Manchester Memorial Crusaders in Friday night’s quarterfinals, while both Bedford and Pinkerton rolled to wins. Thus it will be No. 4 Nashua South at No. 1 Bedford and No. 7 Salem at No. 3 Pinkerton in next Friday’s semifinals. Here’s a look at the other three quarters: NO. 2 PINKERTON 34, NO. 6 WINDHAM 6 The Jags’ Brandon Jacobs had a TD reception to give the visitors a 6-0 lead but then it was all Pinkerton with touchdowns by Noah […]

NASHUA – Cody Jackson hopes Friday night’s Division I quarterfinal vs. Bishop Guertin wasn’t his last game at Stellos Stadium, since it’s the site of the state title game. But he sure left an impression that will be tough to match. Jackson carved up the Cardinal secondary almost at will as the No. 4 Panthers dominated their No. 5 city rivals to the tune of a 31-14 win that puts them in the semifinals vs. No. 1 Bedford next Friday for the first time in over a decade. “He’s incredible,” Porter said of his quarterback, who threw for 220 yards […]

MANCHESTER – Beau knows soccer, goaltending especially. But more important, Beau knows Bedford. Thus Bishop Guertin High School goaltender Beau Boughter, who is from Bedford and even has a younger brother on the No. 2 Bulldogs, was fired up and on top of his game. That was a good thing for the Cards, who needed their keeper’s eight saves to come away with a 2-0 Division I semifinal win Wednesday at Manchester Memorial’s Chabot McDonough Field. “It meant a lot, you know,” said Boughter, whose sliding stuff save of Bulldog Ali Mirza late in the first half with the score […]

BEDFORD – A playoff match between two of the most prolific attacks in the division became a defensive battle. It took more than 80 minutes, but Raymond senior forward Gianna Gott's shot found the back of the net off a deflection just 2:05 into overtime, lifting the No. 2 Rams to a 1-0 victory over the No. 3 Campbell Cougars in Tuesday night's Division III girls' soccer semifinal at Bedford High School. “An own goal, that's a hard way to go out,” Campbell head coach Allen Lajoie said. “We lost to them, but it was a great contest. It just […]

BEDFORD – Souhegan High School field hockey freshman Mariellah Dart had a lot on her mind in a split second on Saturday evening at Bedford’s Bulldog Stadium. She badly wanted to receive a penalty corner pass with just over six minutes left in regulation in the Division II title game vs. Bow, which was tied at 1. The Sabers were in the middle of a flurry of a half dozen corners, but coming up empty. Until Dart blasted a shot into the Bow goal to give Souhegan a 2-1 championship win. “The corners before, they weren’t really working, we weren’t […]

BEDFORD – Benjamin Smith, 25, of Manchester, was taken into custody on Oct. 26 for allegedly driving the wrong way on Interstate 293 and the F.E. Everett Turnpike. According to State Police, at 1:07 a.m., troopers were alerted that Smith, who was driving a 2012 Honda Civic, was traveling the wrong way on I-293 in Manchester. Smith was said to be in the northbound lanes near exit 5 travelling southbound. Trooper Madelynn Theve responded to the alert and found Smith travelling the wrong way on the F.E. Everett Turnpike in Bedford. She was able to pull him over and took […]

Friday was a happy and sad day for local high school teams. Unless you’re the Merrimack High School field hockey team, which had a little bit of both. The ‘Hawks were thrilled to have made the Divison I field hockey quarters, but they lost to powerful Bedford. “We were happy to be there,” Merrimack coach Courtney LeFrancois said. “All the girls worked really hard and gave their heart and souls to the game. I’m very proud of them.” Other teams in soccer and volleyball captured their regular season finales and will be moving on to tourney play. And some won’t. […]
