NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts Trailblazers placed 37 student-athletes on the Fall 2012 Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference All-Academic Team. To qualify, students must have either a 3.2 semester or cumulative based grade-point average.

A total of 564 student-athletes have been honored by the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference that was released earlier today by Commissioner Angela Baumann.
 
"I want to congratulate all eight member schools on having such a tremendous number of student-athletes honored on the Fall MASCAC All-Academic Team," Baumann said of this year's squad. "The commitment to the all-around development of our student-athletes both in the classroom and in competition is something that our schools take great pride in, and the success that MASCAC student-athletes have achieved in the classroom is testament to that commitment."
 
The 37 student athletes represent all seven varsity sports whose primary season is in the fall. The number also represents 37 percent of all of the participating athletes at MCLA. The women's soccer (9) program, along with the women's cross-country (8) program had the highest representation.

New North Adams Restaurant Approved for Liquor License

By Tammy DanielsiBerkshires Staff
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A new restaurant on Main Street, a provisions shop and a convenience store all got the nod from the License Commission on Tuesday.
 
Siblings Colleen and Sean Taylor are expanding their cuisine empire yet again with the establishment of Main & Mill in the old TD Bank. They were before the commission to apply for an all-alcohol license. 
 
The building is owned by Ginko on Main Street LLC, which has granted 20 years exclusive possession of the property to Latent Builds as the developer. Jack and Suzy Wadsworth, behind Ginko, are development partners with Salvatore Perry and Karla Rothstein of Latent.
 
The bank closed in early 2021 and purchased by Ginko late that year. Plans for the property unveiled three years ago envisioned a restaurant, retail, a park and rooftop bar. 
 
The building's hosted some pop-up eateries and is currently under construction for the new restaurant. 
 
Colleen Taylor said the restaurant will be open seven days a week serving lunch and dinner, and be open early for coffee. 
 
"It's not going to be a very big restaurant. It's about the same size as Trail House, except for Trail House has a bigger patio, so about the same seating," she said.
