The Stoughton boys' defeated Foxborough 65-25 Saturday at BU.
The victory was especially gratifying as the boys got a chance to show some of their depth. Missing from the meet with an injury was Kevin McDonald, last week's high point scorer as well as a few others due to several issues/and or injuries.
