Tigers Shut Out Brattleboro 28-0 By Mike Cameron Early in the season the Colonels were highly touted. One reason for that was their 1,045 pound offensive line truss consisting of 4 players who checked in at 250, 245, 250, and 300 respectively.

Funny game, high school football. On Friday night October 5th, the Colonels were in town to take on the Middlebury Tigers at Doc Collins Field in a 7 p.m. show down. The Tigers also made a statement the week before at Essex by outplaying the Hornets after trailing early and at the half.
