Carpenters Welcome the Team of the Week

This week’s First Capitol News/Carpenter’s Local Team of the Week is the St. Cletus Cobras, a group of five year old tee ball players. Led by co-head coaches Matt Fairless and Bill Solomon, the group travels throughout St.Charles and St. Louis Counties participating in CYA competition. “We have a solid group of parents who have as much, if not more fun than the boys,” said Fairless, who lives a double life of youth coach and attorney at law. The team is made up of youngsters who will attend Academy of the Sacred Heart next year as kindergarteners. “They are a bright bunch of boys who like to have fun,” said Solomon, a retired assistant superintendent from the Hazelwood School District. “It is a joy to coach such a group of youngsters, it really is,” Solomon concluded.
