Last week, Taunton baseball, Taunton softball and Bristol-Plymouth softball all remained perfect while Dighton-Rehoboth baseball kicked off its season with a win and Dighton-Rehoboth softball took down rivals and back-to-back Division 4 defending champions Case. Bristol-Plymouth girls lacrosse got a new all-time record goal scorer while a Bridgewater-Raynham tennis player extended his match-winning streak to 15, a Taunton girls lacrosse player reached a career milestone and Bridgewater-Raynham track and field had another solid showing.
