DERRY - Emily Leonard has a well-defined role for the Pinkerton Academy girls basketball team this year. Friday night against Dover, that role put her center stage for the Astros. With Pinkerton frustrated most of the night by the Green Wave's zone defense, Leonard hit six 3-pointers, including tw

DERRY – Pinkerton Academy girls basketball coach Lani Buskey smiled moments after the end of Friday night's non-competitive clash with Bishop Guertin, and had a simple explanation for what she had just witnessed at the Hackler Gym. “They're BG,” she said. “They're BG.” And they were BG to the tune

There wasn't much time for the Pinkerton Academy football team to feel sorry for itself. After Bishop Guertin scored with under five minutes to play in last Friday's Division I quarterfinal, it was still a two-point game and the Astros still needed to defend the ensuing two-point conversion. Whil

DERRY - Football is different in November and no one knows that better than Brian O'Reilly. The longtime Pinkerton Academy coach stressed that to his team leading up to Friday's Division I quarterfinal against Bishop Guertin, and when the Astros needed to make the extra effort to come up with a big

NASHUA - Sophie Bilodeau was the first player off the bench for the Bishop Guertin High School field hockey team in overtime of Thursday's Division I preliminary-round game. It was a big moment, one that Bilodeau was nervous about being a part of, but fortunately for the Cardinals, she was. Bilode

The Pinkerton Academy football team looked like it was driving in another nail when Jacob Albert broke free for a 61-yard touchdown run late in the second quarter Saturday against Windham. And Cole Yennaco looked like he did the same with his 32-yard touchdown run in the final minutes of the third

EXETER - The Bedford High School girls lacrosse team went into Saturday's Division I semifinal against Pinkerton with a game plan on defense, and like the Bulldogs have done throughout the season, they made it work. With Bedford's top two defenders focused on Pinkerton's top two offensive threats,

NASHUA - No one on the Pinkerton Academy boys lacrosse sideline was happy with the team's performance in its regular-season loss to Nashua South, and the Astros had a lot of time to think about it. With 11 days between the last regular-season game and Saturday's Division I quarterfinal, Pinkerton d

DERRY - Kyle Zirn didn't just get himself off the schneid with his goal in Tuesday's boys lacrosse game. He may have woken up the Pinkerton Academy offense as a whole. Zirn scored his first goal of the year on his eighth try and the long-pole goal jumped started the Astros, as they ran off five m
