Wayland Weston Rowing Says “So Long” to 9-Year Director Mike Baker
Like many of the rowers he has coached over the last 9 years, Wayland Weston Rowing Association’s Program Director Mike Baker is going to college.

Connor Madden’s gem sends Hudson Post 100 to Zone 4 championship series
HUDSON – Hudson’s lead was incredibly narrow, but with Connor Madden on the bump, it remained remarkably safe.
