The Timberlane Regional School District celebrated significant achievements at its recent board meeting, highlighting the success of both the high school wrestling team and the middle school cooking competition team.

The wrestling team, under the guidance of Coach Brown, proudly announced their victory as the 2025 New Hampshire state champions, marking the program's 31st state title—the most in the state’s history. Coach Brown praised the team's dedication and camaraderie, emphasizing their strong performance throughout a challenging season. The athletes expressed their pride in representing Timberlane and the importance of teamwork, with one captain reflecting on how the experience of wrestling has shaped their character and relationships.

In addition to their athletic prowess, the wrestlers are also committed to academics and community service, participating in study halls and mentoring younger students in a youth wrestling program. This holistic approach to development was highlighted by Coach Brown, who noted that the lessons learned on the mat extend far beyond wrestling, preparing students for future challenges.

The meeting also featured the Timberlane Middle School cooking team, who recently won first place in a cooking competition against other local schools. The team showcased their culinary skills by preparing a chicken and waffle sandwich, complete with a homemade barbecue sauce. The students shared their experiences and the joy of working together, with their teacher, Ms. Schuljan, receiving commendation for her role in guiding them through the competition.

Both teams exemplify the values of teamwork, dedication, and community spirit that the Timberlane Regional School District aims to instill in its students. The board meeting served as a reminder of the positive impact that school programs can have on young people's lives, fostering not only athletic and culinary skills but also personal growth and community involvement. As the district continues to support these initiatives, the achievements of its students shine as a testament to the power of education and teamwork.
