By Tara Vocino

Everett High School Powderpuff flag football teams hit the gridiron at Everett Veterans Memorial Stadium last Tuesday night for their annual Thanksgiving game. After a hard-fought, back-and-forth battle, the Blue Team was victorious.

“The girls did a great job… they were amped up,” Blue Team Head Coach Domenick Persuitte said. “The main goal of the team was to have fun, which they did.”

Persuitte said the Blue Team will come back stronger next year, and the coaches are excited and looking forward to next year.

The Purple Team lost to the Blue Team by a score of 6-5. “It was a hard fought win for Blue; Purple played hard to the very last second,” Purple Team Coach Michael Munoz said. “I was very proud of what the Purple Team accomplished.”

Munoz said that every member of the team was supportive and encouraging of one another, and to see them communicate and strategize as a team was the best part of the evening.
