Whiz Kids At Boston High School

If you were a high school girls soccer player and you really wanted to screw with your rival you could probably think of a lot of things to do-- such as paint your logo on their bench or steal their mascot. However, the girls of Holliston High School outside of Boston came up with something new-- they all popped a squat on rival Medway High Schools synthetic field.

As a result of the "squat-and-run" attack, Medway officials were forced to spray the artificial turf at Hanlon Field with disinfectant prior to the hot-anticipated game.

"It's always healthy to have a friendly rivalry between two towns, but when it gets ugly - it's sad,'' said Medway School Committee member Stephen Dahl.

The whole incident came to light when pictures showed up on the internet showing the varsity girls Holliston soccer team urinating on the Medway field. "We don't know (if they really urinated). Nobody knows except the girls themselves, and they claim they didn't do it - they were just simulating it,'' said Dahl. "What the photos speak to is that obviously they weren't thinking,'' said Trindade. "These poor kids have to be an embarrassment to their parents.''

Medway Police said they did not respond to the incident, nor are they investigating, and the school district is handling the episode on its own. While the punishment meted out by the school has not been made clear, varsity football player Mike Healy said the team might have to forfeit its two games against Medway this year.
