KEEPING A TIGHT REIN

-

A competitor falls from his horse during the Turkish Javelin Throw League friendly Jereed game between Uzmanlar Sports Club and Dadas Sports Club on Friday in Erzurum, Turkey. Jereed, also known as Cirit, is a traditiona­l Turkish equestrian team sport where players score points by throwing a blunt wooden javelin at the opposing team.

Grace Iaquinta, a freshman at Baldwin High School, prepares herself for the Polar Pop — an ice cold water balloon popped over her head — on Friday. Grace was one of almost 70 students who participat­ed in the Polar Pop, which replaced the Polar Plunge this year due to COVID-19-related precaution­s, to raise about $8,000 — the most funds raised of all the schools in the state — for Special Olympics Pennsylvan­ia.
