More Snow
The Berkshires received several inches of snow this morning, but not enough to close schools, unlike yesterday's sleety mess. Temperatures will drop into the 20s this afternoon. A few more snow showers are expected through the weekend.
We have reports that the roads are very slippery to take care in the evening commute. |

Williams assistant coaches Mitchell Baker (mid-distance), Matt Campanelli (javelin, shot put, discus), Erica Clausen (distance), Dick Farley (hurdles), Shannon Houlihan (long jump, triple jump, high jump), Mark Johnson (pole vault), and Joel Williams (sprints) presented three sections each in their event specialties. Members of both the men's and women's track & field teams assisted the Eph coaches.
"We are exceedingly pleased with the turnout and got tremendous feedback from the participants," commented Eph head coach Peter Farwell. "The Berkshire County League, as well as Bennington's Mt. Anthony, has great track & field programs and super young athletes. It is always great to see teaching and interaction between the college and the local schools, and we certainly plan to make this an annual event."
