Winter Preview: Lisbon girls’ basketball
What Lisbon lacks in size it makes up for in versatility. Take Jasmin Le for example. Despite being only 5-foot-7, Le, the Greyhounds’ top returning scorer, will spend time in the post.

H.S. Football Player of the Year: Halls did it all — and well — for Lisbon
It seemed like like the Greyhounds’s senior captain was always on the field, but the kickoff was the one time he normally had a view from the sideline. After that, he was on the field, and everybody on and off of it knew it. Halls made his mark in every game situation — save for […]
