Some heart-warming news from Newtown, Connecticut, USA:

The Newtown High School (from Newtown, Connecticut, USA) won their state’s high school football championship final with a touch-down in the last ten seconds. That sounds familiar! And to top it off, the Newtown High School’s football colours are royal blue!

This was a huge win for the Newtown High School’s local community for important reasons. Their catchment area includes Sandy Hook, the scene of the terrible mass shooting of primary school students in 2012. This state high school championship match was on the anniversary of the shootings, usually a solemn day for their community. This Washington Post story tells you everything special about the win, and the team:
