by Adam Birt [email protected] @CurrentSportsME June 16, 2015March 14, 2016

The Cape boys successfully defended their Class B State Championship at Lewiston High School on Saturday, in a rematch of last year’s final with Camden Hills. In 2014, the Capers swept the Windjammers 5-0; this year was a hair closer at 4-1. That’s still impressive, considering 2015 had Cape doing a bit of rebuilding. “Having […]

Outdoor Track: Guiliani smashes records, captures titles at New Englands

by Adam Birt [email protected] @CurrentSportsME June 16, 2015March 9, 2016

South Portland junior thrower Danny Guiliani had, this year, what can conservatively be described as a breakout season. Though he also competes in the discus – where he is currently the SMAA Conference Champion and in possession of the State leading mark (165 feet 8 inches) – it’s fair to say Guiliani’s primary event is […]

Their semis opponent, however, would […]
