This was a fun year of Wicked Tuna on National Geographic Channel. Last year’s champ, Dave Carraro and FV-Tuna.com from Gloucester, MA were off to a steady lead. But then he and Sandro, his first mate, went into a 6 week drought without catching any fish. That then allowed the Pinwheel from Rye, NH to catch up and take the lead. Dave and ”.com”, what it is usually called, had to bring in an old companion from the previous year, Paul Hebert. He is quite the jokester but when it came down to catching fish, he was the one to do it. Pinwheel is captained by Tyler Mclaughlin. He is the youngest captain in the two seasons that Wicked Tuna has been airing. Hard Merchandise was captained Dave Marciano and the boat is 10-20 years old. It broke down in the middle of the season. He fixed it but then it sunk on the very last episode of the season. Odysea is captained by Ralph Wilkins. He only had 7 or 8 fish on the year and .com and Pinwheel had 39 each. Paul Hebert left .com to captain his own ship, Lisa and Jake, with his brother and the first mate. The final standings for the season were:
Pinwheel
FV- Tuna.com
Lisa and Jake
Hard Merchandise
Odysea
Bounty Hunter

With more wins at Home and Away the Rangers have the second highest percentage in the league.

As some of you may know or not know but Delaware has added a NBA-D league team called the 87ers. The NBA-D league stands for: National Basketball Association Development League. They will start next season in the fall and will play at the “Bob Carpenter Center”. They don’t have any players yet because the draft hasn’t started but, they will probably be a decent team to watch.
By Dominic Cipriano and Kevin O’Neill: With the spring sports season coming to an end, it is time to ask the annual question… Which is better lacrosse or baseball? This year it is pretty clear, with the varsity lacrosse team being 16-3 as of 5/2/13 and the baseball team being 1-7 lacrosse wins by a landslide. But you decide which is better Lacrosse or Baseball.
