• 5 Connecticut high school softball players we missed in the preseason 25 to watch (ctpost.com) — A standout Cheshire High School second baseman is tearing up the CIAC softball season, hitting well over .600 with extra-base power and speed for the No. 1-ranked Rams. She’s one of five players statewide that GametimeCT admits it overlooked in its preseason “players to watch” list, and her early-season stats show why she’s now impossible to ignore.    

• What Does Public Health Really Mean? These High Schoolers Found Out. (yale.edu) — A Cheshire High School student joined dozens of peers at Yale’s Public Health Day, where hands-on workshops reshaped how they think about community health issues. From lead testing and app-building to gun violence prevention and data-driven policy simulations, the program showed local teens that public health reaches far beyond pandemics into everyday neighborhood life.
