Torrington athletes, coaches work together during construction of new schools

The decision to build a new combined middle school/high school on the existing high school site meant relatively minor inconvenience during the indoor winter season, with pylons rising out of the ground last fall where the school’s parking lot and tennis courts used to be. Pylons rose in the front of the existing building; old school and gym entrances were sealed off; a new parking lot replaced the old softball field in the back. After the old softball field turned into the school’s only parking lot, the city authorized $20,000 for a temporary softball field nestled between the new parking lot and the track. For now, the short right field fence will be Torrington’s own Green Monster jutting up against the parking lot boundary.
