Rutland will take on Mt. Mansfield in the third round of the playoffs at 5:00 PM on Saturday. The stakes are high as the teams both are all in, each fighting to extend its postseason success.
Rutland stacked a sixth blowout onto their ever-increasing hoard. They put the hurt on St. Johnsbury Academy with a sharp 48-23 win. The rankings were on Rutland's side, but they didn't forecast quite such a lopsided result.
Last week, Mt. Mansfield faced Middlebury in a battle between two of the state top teams. Everything went Mt. Mansfield's way against Middlebury as they made off with a 38-8 victory. That looming 30-point mark stands out as the most commanding margin for Mt. Mansfield yet.
Their wins lifted both teams to an identical 8-2. We'll see who bends and who breaks when these two typically dominant teams face off.
