An inspired Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School football team ended its season with a victory last Friday night, taking a bit of the sting out of a season cut short.

Faced with injuries and disciplinary dismissals, the regional high school decided Thursday to forfeit the end of the varsity football season, including the Island Cup.

Student enrollment is slightly down this year in Martha’s Vineyard public schools, according to the annual Oct. 1 school census.

The Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School committee voted unanimously Thursday morning to spend $148,400 to repave the failed track.

A group of track and field athletes implored the regional high school committee Monday night to get going on long-overdue repairs to the failed school track.

The Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School football team opened the season Friday night with a 27-14 home loss to Carver High School.
