Game of Inches

Fair Haven has been an offensive powerhouse for three straight weeks after the team lit up the scoreboard again last week. It won a game that couldn't get any closer, slipping by Bellows Falls 35 - 34. 35 is shaping up to be Fair Haven's lucky number as the team posted the same point total in its win over U-32 the game before. The razor-thin margin made this game the most thrilling one of the week.

Upcoming Drama

The big showdown in the power rankings this week is between Rutland (12th in the power rankings) and Burlington (5th). Burlington will be sulking in after a defeat while Rutland will strut in boosted by a win. We'll see if Rutland can add another positive mark to its record or if Burlington can shake its loss and take the spring out of Rutland's step.

Big Showdown

It was a battle of top-notch squads when Hartford (3rd in the power rankings) took on Mt. Mansfield (9th) last week. Hartford scooted by Mt. Mansfield with a score of 46 - 29. As a result, Hartford rose one spot in the power rankings.
