Who is the TDG H.S. Boys Athlete of the Week for Jan. 11-18?

Another week of winter high school sports has come and gone in the Greater Taunton area.

Last week, a Taunton wrestler reached 100 career wins for the third time this winter before the team put up a dominant showing to win the 2026 Cape Cod Invitational. Bridgewater-Raynham basketball put up big points to take down both of their Pioneer Athletic Conference foes while Somerset Berkley/Case/Dighton-Rehoboth/Seekonk hockey bounced back from a shutout loss with a pair of strong wins. Bristol-Plymouth basketball, Taunton hockey, Bishop Stang/Bristol Aggie hockey and Dighton-Rehoboth basketball also continued to look strong midway through the regular season.

The Taunton Daily Gazette High School Boys Athlete of the Week for Jan. 5-11 is Taunton wrestling's Anthony Vieira, receiving 51% of the vote. Taunton swimming's Jaxon Desrosiers came in second with 46% while Bridgewater-Raynham indoor track Gabe Ocampo's received 3% to finish third.
