The "Face Off For a Cause" was the Westborough High team's community service project.
The Westborough and Algonquin Regional High School varsity boys lacrosse teams raised about $2,000 Wednesday night to support wounded soldiers, Westborough head coach Tom Baker said. The proceeds from the "Face Off For a Cause" match at Westborough High benefitted the Wounded Warrior Project, which seeks "to honor and empower Wounded Warriors who incurred a physical or mental injury, illnesses, or wound, co-incident to (their) military service on or after September 11, 2001," according to its website. The fundraiser was the Rangers' community service project, Baker said. Admission was free, but donations were accepted, he said. Both teams and their coaches wore special uniforms during the game. Algonquin won, 7-6, Baker said.

About 180 people participated Saturday.
"Hope" and a heart glowed with love on opposite ends of the Westborough High School football bleachers Saturday night. White, candle-filled bags personalized to honor someone either battling cancer, someone who has survived cancer or someone who has died of cancer formed these images. A number of loved ones walked the track in their honor over 12 hours, starting at 10 a.m. The second Westborough High School "mini" Relay For Life drew about 180 participants and raised about $13,000 for the fight against cancer, said senior Catie Raissipour, who co-chaired the event with classmate Anna Skidmore.
