![WHS’s Connect Program ran its annual holiday gift drive to fulfill the wishlist of children enrolled in the Dorchester based non-profit daycare organization, the Yawkey Center. 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)

Girls basketball falls to Bedford in second round playoffs
March 6, 2021
The Wayland girls basketball team faced Bedford in the second-round playoff game on Tuesday, Feb. 16. at the Warrior dome. During a high and intense battle to score, both teams were aggressive and focused on the win. Although the Warriors tightened the gap and made a comeback in the third quarter, it was not enough to clinch the victory. Sadly, the Warriors season ended with a 33-42 loss.
The Wayland girls varsity basketball team huddles and shouts a cheer before stepping onto the court. "Our team definitely felt prepared and we were extremely excited to still have a tournament despite COVID-19," junior Sarah Alizadeh said. "We knew that Bedford was going to be a tough team to beat, especially because their injured players had returned."
