    The Caribou Vikings knocked off the team that had been the only undefeated one remaining in the Eastern Maine Class B ranks, and came close to beating them in the other half of Saturday’s doubleheader as well.

    Caribou Little League kicked off their 47th season with Opening Ceremonies held Saturday and 10 games played last week. 
    During the Opening Ceremonies, all league players and coaches were introduced onto the Robert White Field after an address from Caribou Little League President Brian Massey. The City of Caribou Fire Department Color Guard, led by Captain Lance Longley, presented the flags, and 2013 Northern Star Finalist Heather Rose sang the National Anthem.

    All three Caribou boys’ singles players, along with one of the girls, have advanced to Saturday’s state singles tennis tournament, to be held at Lewiston High School.
    All four Vikings went undefeated at the Region I qualifier, held last Tuesday at Caribou High School, earning them the right to compete this weekend.
    Zac Gorence, Michael Marquis and Ethan Plourde moved on in boys’ play, as did Ashley Richards in the girls’ draw.

    PRESQUE ISLE — Fort Fairfield’s Andrew Lewis broke two Aroostook County records, the Washburn girls’ 4x100-meter relay team established another and Caribou dominated in the team results at last Tuesday’s Aroostook League Track and Field Championships.
    Lewis and Washburn’s Carsyn Koch each took first place in four events, so Lewis won the Emery Plourde Award as the boys’ high scorer in the meet and Koch took the Howard Lello Award as the girls’ top scorer.
