Wiscasset Speedway had their time to shine this past weekend, hosting their biggest Pro Stock race of the year: the inaugural “Boss Hogg 150,” lovingly named after Hall of Fame driver and former track owner Dave St. Clair. The $10,000-to-win race was the main highlight of the weekend, but the speedway hosted two back-to-back race programs on Saturday and Sunday, elevating the excitement leading up to the big event.

The Boothbay/Wiscasset boys and girls cross-country teams competed in 5,000-meter races at Maranacook High School on Thursday, Sept. 3.

For the boys, senior AJ Crocker was once again the top finisher, coming in fourth overall at 17:47.61 and shaving 30 seconds off his time on the same course last year. Top runner in the 64-runner field was Winthrop freshman Sawyer Wess with a time of 16:50.90.

The 2026 Wiscasset boys' soccer team is playing in an 8-man league, but in the preseason it's a different story. Wiscasset participated in the Richmond Bobcat Shootout on Aug. 22 and played four games against 11-man squads.

For the Wiscasset girls’ soccer team, it’s a new coach and a new league this fall. The team is moving from eight-woman to the traditional 11-woman game. James Andretta is the new coach. He coached the boys’ program last year.

Andretta has coached several of the estimated 21 players who indicated they would play this fall. Andretta previously coached the middle school boys and girls teams and did one year coaching a co-ed squad.
