With a small bench as it is, and Erin Berschwinger recovering from a recent shoulder injury, it was unclear if the game against Doane Stewart on January 27 would be an easy one. The Lady Mountaineers started off the game slowly letting the Thunder Chickens get the first points. After foul shots from Kayla Hawk and a good rebound and pass from Victoria Muller to Deanna Nash, the game was off and rolling. [Read more…] about Berlin Girls Basketball Plucks Thunder Chickens

Clarification
Hoosick Falls School Librarian Martha Von Schilgen corrected our description last week of the new resources available through the School Library’s web site. She wrote, “One small error in the Hoosick Falls School Board news – our students cannot access the school library’s online catalog, but they can access the public library on line catalog from their home computers. Students are able to access the school’s library catalog from anywhere in school on the school’s internal network.”
