A praying mantis clings to a goal's netting during a boys' soccer game between East Bridgewater and Rockland at East Bridgewater High School in East Bridgewater, Mass. As Rockland huddled up during halftime, looking to break down the Viking defense, the insect sunned itself until the end of the game. East Bridgewater used all the spiritual guidance that the mantis could muster to defeat Rockland, 5-2.
