Winston Churchill High School's seven seniors have been to several MPSSAA 4A West Regional Finals in the last few years. But each time they went before, they had to buy a ticket at the door. "We went last year after a disappointing loss to Magruder in the semifinals," said senior forward Thomas Geenen. "It was painful to watch the other teams play, especially for our seniors who had played their last game. But while we were there we all made a vow that this year we had to come back and find a way to play in this game not just for us but for all the guys we have had the chance to play with over the past three years." Indeed, this year the Bulldogs won't be spectators but will be playing in the regional championship thanks to a 53-45 …

Bulldogs have recorded their 50th win under four-year coach Matt Miller.
The Winston Churchill High School boys varsity basketball team used a stingy defense and its best shooting of the season to wallop visiting Richard Montgomery, 64-30, on Tuesday night.

Guarded mostly by junior Dominique Williams, Senou managed just three points and six shots. Williams’ teammates got the job done too as they limited the visitors to just 12-of-46 shooting from the floor (26%). “Dom’s job was to lock [Senou] up, deny …
