This drive brought the town together and impacted both the students in Connect, as well as the greater Wayland community. “You could see how helpful the town was and how our community came together and wanted to help out a community that wasn't our own [and] kids who were less fortunate than we were,” senior and Connect Program member Jordynn Lee said.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/screenshot_2024-12-20_at_12.21.24___pm_720-e1734734228474.png)

Senior captain Griffin McGrail scored the first goal of the game on a breakaway. Returning starter and junior Mark Blahnik then scored a header for the second goal off of a cross by McGrail. Chris D’Amico, a junior and returning starter scored the third goal off of another breakaway.
Senior captains David Villari and Ian Stack led the defense, joined in the back by junior Doug Lyons and senior David von Mering. Other starters included juniors Matthew Gutschenritter and Nico Pascual-Leone, as well as seniors Dan Lesser and goalie Jack McCullough.

![Junior Benjamin Hammond solos "Twist and Shout" by The Beatles as part of the T-Tones performance. "[Twist and Shout] is one of my favorite songs, and with the amount of vocal harmony it has I figured it would be good for A Capella," Hammond said. "[Twist and Shout] has pretty simple rhythms and awesome energy, which fits the vibe of the T-Tones. I arranged the song basically identical to how it is written, because I think the guitar riff, bass riff and the harmonies are all excellent as well as easy to sing."](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/8E057B61-9507-4115-811F-93F1FB6F7EB4_1_105_c.jpg)
