Killington lodge in ruinsInn, bar plunged into flood water

By Lou [email protected]

KILLINGTON — Killington’s K-1 Base Lodge and Superstar Pub are inruins after tr opical storm Ir ene’s violent rain undermined the gr oundaround and below the popular recerational and dining establishment.

Half of the lodge, including the pub, collapsed into a yawning minigorge below it when a normally quiet alpine brook was transformed intoa raging torrent Aug. 28.

Nearby, the historic 19th century Killington Farmstead and church atRiver Road was pushed of their foundations by the high velocity of flood-water. The structures were washed downhill. River Road itself has van-ished.

Bill Bauer, Killington Base Lodge manager, told reporters that “It’s dev-astation like we’ve never seen. I was speechless.”

The main access to Killington, U.S. Route 4, was washed away belowthe resort area. State highway crews constructed a temporary emergency

We know it might not be possible to stay together but it would be great to have two of us stay together if possible.

poured acr oss the ConantSquare district (U.S. Route7) and into the basementsand first floors of manydowntown buildings. Oneeyewitness said muddy riv-er water erupted out of man-hole covers in geyser-likefountains r eaching over sixfeet in height.

At least one downtownbuilding was pushed of f itsfoundation by the high ve-locity of the Neshobe Riv-er ’s flood-swollen torrent.

Brandon’s historic down-town area contains a core of243 buildings listed on theNational Register of His-toric Places. However , it isuncertain how many ofthese buildings have beenundermined by the flashflood of Aug. 28.

Neshobe River floodwa-ter cr eated several lar ge“craters” on Main Str eetpossibly knocking deathblows to a few visible down-town buildings including the beloved, iconic Briggs Car-riage House.

Built in the 1800s, the Briggs building—located at 8 Co-nant Squar e—was originally the home to a local carriagemaker. later , it served as a r esidence, book shop, andgallery. Currently, it is home to offices and a shop.

The Briggs building’s foundation is seriously under-mined and its western wall, just below the roofline, appearsfatally fractured.

A large crater in the r oad in front of this historic build-ing reveals its structural integrity is doubtful.

“I think you can see that the Briggs Carriage House wasseriously damaged by Sunday’s flood,” said Matt Guilletteof Brandon.

Guillette joined other downtown residents to watch towncrews i nvestigate th e u ndermined s treet a round C onantSquare. They w ere pointing to the buildi ng's cr umblingground floor and large wall cracks

While not officially inspected by an engineer at this time,damage to the historic structure appears beyond repair.

“I’ve lived in Brandon only three years now, but the flashflood was terrible. Downtown is seriously wounded. Youcan see ther e ar e houses behind and below the carriagehouse, on Briggs Road,” said Guillette. “No one is permit-

ted back in ther e. I think the Briggs Carriage House andthose houses will have to be knocked down. These build-ings are unsafe to enter. It’s sad.”

“It’s hard to get around downtown,” said Brandon r esi-dent Robin Sirino, 57. “While it was raining Aug. 28 I wasthinking, ‘this is no big deal for a hurricane.’ Then I heardsirens and looked outside. Downtown was a raging, mud-dy river. I don’t know how many buildings have been dam-aged.”

Sirino said that when she saw Brandon House of Pizza ofits foundation she felt sick.

“I guess that building’s going to go, too,” she added.Brandon Select Boar d member Richar d Baker told r e-

porters the cost to repair downtown will be over $1 million.Brandon landlords and community leaders Jim and Nan-

cy Leary sponsor ed a benefit concert Sept. 2 that helpedkick of Brand Aid, a community wide drive to help down-town business get back to work.

Local lore says Brandon’s most famous resident, U.S. Sen.Stephen Douglas (D), a celebrated orator and candidate forthe U.S pr esidency against Abraham Lincoln (R) in 1860,worked for a short time in the Briggs building.

Having withstood mor e than 150 years, the Briggs Car-riage House may have met its final rendezvous with histo-ry Aug. 28.

LEICESTER JUNCTION — Ray Lalu-miere, emergency manager for the Town OfLeicester, has a lot on his mind this week. La-lumiere has the task of monitoring thetown’s latest crisis—the rising water of theswollen, north flowing Otter Creek.

For 20 years, Lalumiere has faithfully andcautiously executed his volunteer civictasks—making sure Leicester r esidents andassets are protected from harm’s way.

“In a ll m y t ime a s e mergency m anager,there’s been nothing like Irene,” he said.

At Leicester Junction, wher e the OtterCreek cr osses the Leicester -Whiting Roadand a vital portion of V ermont Railwaytrack, residents are watching an increasingamount of water spill over the road and riseto reach their homes.

A small, fenced-in propane tank farm is lo-cated behind the historic Leicester Depot.The depot itself is now completely sur-rounded by flood water.

“The Aug. 28 tr opical deluge was therecord for the Otter Cr eek as measur ed atCenter Rutland,” said Lalumier e. “It was arecord 17.21 feet. Before Aug. 28, the recordat Center Rutland was the Hurricane in 1938

at 13.4 feet.”Hurricanes were not named prior to 1950.Just as in 1938, the 201 1 flood cr est will

take a few days to reach Leicester as it pass-es—like a slow moving bulge—on its way toMiddlebury, V ergennes and Lake Cham-plain.

“The peak of the flood water of 1938 tookseveral days to r each low-lying LeicesterJunction. It cover ed the depot and made amess. I believe it will make the same mess,”Lalumiere said.

Even with the latest Otter Cr eek floodmeasurement data printout in hand, Lalu-miere has taken some good-humor ed jab-bing from fellow town official, Arlan Pigeon,highway foreman, with a smile.

“Well, I don’t think the flood water willreach as high as Ray fears,” Pigeon said, ”butI know that he has to be very safety mindedand he also has a big responsibility in town.Who knows? The cr eek did rise 8-10 inchesjust since last night. But I think the fieldsalong here can take a lot more water.”

Lalumiere e xplained w hy h e t hinks t hecoming crest could be significant.

“There are two major Otter Cr eek ‘chokepoints’ between the falls at Center Rutlandand here at Leicester Junction—they ar e lo-cated at Pr octor Falls and at a narr ow area

located behind Otter V alley Union HighSchool in Brandon.

“The high water doesn’t come immediate-ly down here as most people think,” he said.“This is a huge volume of water—more thanfour feet higher than the 1938 flood. It’s flu-id, i t s peeds u p, s lows d own, b acks u p i nchoke points—which ar e kind of like bigsoup bowls—then gains velocity again andplows on ahead.”

Lalumiere expects the crest of the Aug. 28floodwater t o r each L eicester J unction l ateSunday, Sept. 4, and into Monday, Sept. 5—the Labor Day holiday.

“Because water is a fluid, it behaves dif-ferently from most things,” Lalumiere said.

“Even at normals times, a river like the Ot-ter Creek is slightly higher in the center andlower on the edges. That’s because of thephysical d ynamics of w ater. T his w eekendthere will be a bigger center bulge in thecreek as the crest passes through here,” hesaid.

Watching the rising Otter Cr eek Aug. 31were several local residents.

The neighbors wer e evacuated fr om ap-proximately 30 low-lying homes in the Junc-tion ar ea. The homes, now surr ounded bythe flooding Otter Cr eek, stand on BridalPath Lane, the Leicester-Whiting Road, and

dead-end Stove Pipe Lane.Crystal Sears who lives on Stove Pipe Lane

evacuated Aug. 30.“I got out because I have to work. I could

get back and forth for a day or so with thetown’s help—Arlan is giving residents a lifton the town’s big payloader tractor to let uskeep an eye on things, but at some point thisweekend he probably can’t keep doing this.”

Kenny a nd C arrie L ussier l ive o n S tovePipe Lane, too.

The young couple, along with their sonsJacob, 6, and Dylan, 10, stood at the water’sedge wandering if the flood would r eachtheir house.

“I think we’ll be fine,” Kenny Lussier said.“My Ford Mustang is in the driveway , so Iam not worried.”

There just aren’t many words thatwill help comfort those who experi-enced the devastation delivered to

Vermont by the tropical storm remnants ofHurricane Irene Aug. 28.

You can split hairs and debate the scientificterms: hurricane versus tropical storm, but itreally doesn’t matter to flood victims. No mat-ter what you slug Irene, she was a vicious in-terloper.

No one alive in Vermont today has experi-enced anything like Aug. 28, 2011. For the gen-eration that survived the Great Flood of 1927and the Hurricane of 1938 in V ermont, lastweek’s destruction would have looked famil-iar.

Thankfully, unlike the 1927 disaster , the2011 disaster r esulted in far fewer deaths.Still, a new generation must find its waythrough, understanding how just a few hoursof torrential rain could have altered lives andtownscapes forever.

Surveying the destruction, even as a newsreporter, has not been easy. Access to many lo-cales has been restricted due to safety issues.Still, the damage in central and southern Ver-mont has been so widespr ead that it doesn’ttake much to get an upclose look at it.

The beautiful Town of Brandon was espe-cially hard hit by the flooding of the NeshobeRiver.

A wall of muddy water breached the upperfalls downtown and d amaged many build-ings, perhaps mortally.

At least two large craters, created by highvelocity river water , ate away the r oadwayfrom above and below.

Our h earts g o o ut t o a ll t he residents o fBrandon, Rutland, Ludlow , Killington, Mt.Holly and elsewher e. If we can help in any-way, contact this editor and we will help getthe word out.

While examining the rising Otter Cr eek atLeicester Junction Aug. 31, I was struck by sin-cere words spoken by resident Sandy Cram.

“I think Vermonters should pat themselveson the back this week,” Cram said. “It’s amaz-ing how many people are doing things to helptheir neighbors. I am very proud to be a Ver-monter.” s

It’s people like Sandy Cram and otherswho will help r ebuild towns damaged bytropical storm Irene. It will take money, hardwork and volunteerism.

Continued next week.Lou Varricchio

How politicians choose on choiceWithin the last

month or so, twowell-known po-

litical figures in Vermonthave taken opposing standson the school-choice question.

That’s the one which focuseson the concept that par entswho don’t like the geography-of-residence-based publicschool assignment for theirchildren might be free to find abetter (and similarly-free) seatfor their upwar dly-mobile(that’s education-, not social-wise) student in a school beyond the town orsupervisory union official enrollment area.

Technically, the “choice” ar gument (forschools, not births) extends beyond the inven-tory of public schools, including charters,which do better because they’re less intensive-ly-regulated than the traditional Horace-Mann-designed K-12 units, to include privateacademies, both secular and r eligious, wherethe State might use its taxpayers’ money to paytuition based on the per-pupil amount it wouldhave spent in its own schools.

That’s the V oucher Dispute. In this case,however, the ‘famous ones’ have mutuallyagreed to disagree solely on the availability (ornot) of not-in-the-district public schools only ,a flexible phrase which historically has includ-ed the semi-private academies like Burr & Bur-ton in Manchester and excluded the heresy offunding-following-students to such fully pri-vate (and well-enr olled) competitors, long-standing and r ecent, as the six in AddisonCounty.

The pr o-choice famous one r evealed hispreference in early August to State print me-dia, which duly r eported the instant opposi-tion of the State teacher’s union, the VermontNEA. Specifically, said Gov. Peter Shumlin, hewould “ur ge lawmakers to adopt legislationguaranteeing universal public school choice”.More recently, the Guv became (more tem-porarily?) famous for his Vermont Yankee fishstory, the one in which he first announced hewouldn’t eat a supposedly radioactive fishcaught eight miles upstream from the official-ly-despised Enter gy-owned nuclear powerplant, and then announced his pr o-choicestand on the fishy question: others could eat ornot, as they chose. The Guv was clear on keep-

ing the public-school monop-oly intact: “where you lose meis wher e you get intoparochial and private schoolsin school choice”, he opined.Decoded, that means: NoVouchers.

The anti-choice famous onerevealed his preference in lateJune to State print media, in anop-ed headlined “Be W ary ofEconomists Bearing Educa-tion Reforms” and deridingthe statistical finding thatpublic schools subjected to

competition from parent-selected alternativessuddenly find ways to raise their own stu-dents’ achievement scores. Specifically, wroteretired public-school superintendent W illiamMathis in paragraphs dismissing achieve-ment-testing as “measur emyopia” and “r e-gressionia”, “…test scores are only a small partof schools…” and “…the richness, of what ed-ucation is and should be, is unseen…” a linewhich parallels a two-decade-old RutlandHerald editorial dismissing the notion thatmere taxpayers could pr esume to attempt tomeasure the “ineffable” education process foractual achievement results.

Less recently, the ex-super became (less tem-porarily?) famous for his involvement in thelawsuit-against-the-feds over its almost-all-students-Proficient-by-2014 r equirement, thelawsuit arguing that public schools had no ob-ligation to educate any particular per centageof students to Pr oficiency, that any such de-mand was an unfunded federal mandate, butthat public schools could do it if they got a lotmore money from taxpayers.

Like the Guv , the ex-Super was clear onkeeping the public school monopoly intact,specifically by preventing school-performanceevaluation by parents who, if they could com-pare, might choose to put their kids in other -than-designated schools. He’s opposed to anyprocess where even a supposedly monopoly-service-area public school might lose customershare to one the next town over , and perhapseven go bankrupt (a little Joseph Schumpetercreative-destruction-in-pursuit-of-height-ened-productivity lingo, ther e) because theparent-preferred school does a better job.

The Weather Channel: Young gal and guy announcerstalking with a peer reporter who is doing a remote ona shore in Rhode Island, asking him to describe the

storm devastation. The announcers and viewers watch both the remote announcer

and the inclement weather on a studio T.V. screen, and see there’snot much going on at the shore scene. It’s windy, and waves aredoing a fair bit of splashy-splashing, but to me,to other viewers, and one has to believe to allthree announcers, the scene was not one you’dconsider devastating.

I’m sure the weather announcers studied longand hard, and were graded well, at one of themnot-too-difficult to get into colleges that has anabove average br oadcast meteor ology major ,and I’m sur e they know allot mor e than I doabout weather, and I’m sure that’s why when theremote guy thr ew it back to the in-studio duo,the gal announcer said “So we can see things arestill very frightening down ther e.” But when Inoticed a dozen or so tourists walking, and a30ish dude skate boar ding, in front and behindthe guy doing the remote, I began to wonder why one of the an-nouncers didn’t ask the remote guy “Hey, what’s with the skate-boarder? Is it really all that bad down there?”

The announcers either didn’t believe what they saw, or didn’tsay what they believed. “The storm doesn’t appear as bad as we’dexpected, right now,” is what I believe they should have said.

Actually, I don’t think the announcers thought they wer e re-porting inaccurately. I think they were so psyched to be reportingin the midst of, what they’d hoped they could report in the midstof, since the day they decided to go into broadcast meteorology;An historic storm and once in a generation moment in weatherlore; That they didn’t even notice the skateboarder with his handsclasped behind his head, rolling by on a leisurely Sunday skate.

Severe weather ideologues is what those announcers ar e. Or,they accepted the scene as nothing more then a Sunday afternoon

heavy sprinkle and coarse wind, but they didn’t want to r eportit as such, because such reporting would be boring weather chan-nel television (more boring than normal), better known as, hard-to-sell-ads-on, TV.

Ideologues, or shifty salespeople? What do you think they are?Ideological-shifty salespeople zwhat I think they are.

In a shifty , ideological salesperson way , they razzle-dazzledthemselves and viewers into missing the actual problem-coarseof the storm, which as we now all know, was up through the mid-dle of good ole, VT.

Of course the weather channel r eportersweren’t in anyway responsible for the storm, butstill, they should ground themselves and reportwithout prejudice, or tabloid type methods, be-cause, danged it to heck, most folks out ther elove to believe them.

Been h aving f un c hatting w ith f olks a t t heChamplain Valley Fair last week. Some ar e in-side their own heads and of fer little mor e thenpleasant hidey ho’s. Others ar e able to spendmore time chatting, which allows for a mor ethorough conversation.

After talking with more than a few constr uc-tion folks, I’ve realized how a harsh winter, over-ly wet spring, and this most r ecent thrashing

storm, can in lots of ways be a boon for them: Many road fixers,and heavy equipment sellers have done fairly well these past cou-ple of years what with all the rough weather we’ve had. Ironical-ly, if we get rid of global warming, those guys and gals will haveto look for other ways to diversify their income, which I’m surethey’d welcome doing if it was at the expense of not having theirfellow Vermonters stranded and overcome.

Final note on Ir ene: Gov. Shumlin has taken some guf f for apresentation he did live on a national network news show . Iwatched it. I thought he did danged fine.

Maybe he didn’t say the exact things every Vermonter wantedto hear, but hey man, put yourself in his position. You’re live infront of an international audience, fielding

Springfield man injuredin Route 131 crashBy Lou [email protected]

WEATHERSFIELD — On Aug. 18, at appr oximately 4:38p.m., Vermont State Police responded to a single vehicle crashon Vermont Route 131 in W eathersfield. Weather conditionswere dry and clear at the time of the crash.

Joel Knight, 22, of Springfield, was traveling west when hisvehicle went of f the r oad. After going of f the right side, thevehicle struck an embankment, which caused it to r oll backonto the road, landing on its roof.

Knight was transported to Springfield Hospital with minorinjuries.

Knight was not wearing a seatbelt and it appears the crashwas the result of driver fatigue.

Police issued Knight a ticket for failing to maintain controlof his vehicle within the marked lane and a seatbelt violation.The Ascutney Fire Department and Golden Cross Ambulanceresponded to the scene along with the state police.

Whether school choice is “on the right side of history” (alittle we’r e-smarter-than-you Pr ogressive lingo, ther e) r e-mains to be seen; after all, non-public school choice enjoyeddeeper market penetration in the ‘50’s than it does today. Butnow, when such governmental behemoths as NYC embraceschool choice (r ead the glowing account on the EducationWeek website) although only for the Shumlin-preferred pub-lic alternatives, including charters and excluding, as de-scribed in this column r ecently, the non-public options em-braced in Douglas County, Colo., maybe the trend is, indeed,visible and welcome. Up to now, its visibility has been a haz-ard. Consider, for examine, the Caroline Hoxby story.

She was the Harvard economics-professor/researcher (didI mention that famous-person-two is dismissive –wary-- ofeconomists who presume to intrude onto the private turf ofpublic education?) who, in 2001, published a study entitled“The Economics of School Choice”.

It summarizes thus: she found that students in districtswhere multiple school selection options wer e available allscored better on achievement tests than in districts wher e amore typical no-choice assignment system pr evailed. Thatwas irr espective of whether the students’ par ents actuallychose a different school for their kids. Her findings provokedthe predictable public-educator r eaction and six years later ,after her study methodology and findings couldn’t be foundincorrect, she was de-fenestrated at Harvar d anyway andmoved to Stanfor d to continue her studies, some with EricHanushek. He’s the former University of Rochester econom-ics professor who similarly committed her esy in his studiesfinding that reducing class size raised per-pupil costs but notstudent achievement, pr ovoked a similar educrat r eaction,couldn’t be proven wrong, was similarly de-fenestrated, andsimilarly fled to Stanford.

Of even more interest to your Humble Scribe is the famous-person-2 comment putting “…intelligence and virtue…thesafeguarding of liberty…the pr eservation of good govern-ment… and the prevention of vice…” ahead of testable read-ing and counting skills in graded schools, suggesting therebythat the K-12 school ar e r eally miniatur e universities forthoughtful intellectuals who happen to be short and young,who should be learning to be the future philosopher-kings ofa Progressive society, and not wasting their time and talenton memorizing the 36 symbols of reading and counting.

More on this public-educator campaign for the r eplace-ment-of-Horace-Mann-and-Bismarck with Plato-and-Aristot-le next week.

Former Vermonter Martin Harris lives in Tennessee.

And I know that’s part of Mr. Shumlin’s joband he wanted to be governor , but still, well, I think he did agood job. Being a so-called half-assed media guy myself, I dohave one note for Mr. Shumlin and his handlers. During the in-terview the governor said, “V ermonters have been whacked,we’ve been whacked hard,” at least two, maybe three separatetimes. During one of the three times, he repeated the line.

We want to try and keep people away from Vermont, gover-nor. But if you keep saying us V ermonters are up her e beingwhacked hard, everyone will want to move here.

CASTLETON — It’s often said that pastseason’s successes can’t be br ought over tothe following year, however, when that teamis r eturning the thr ee-time North AtlanticConference (NAC) Player of the Year, as wellas nine starters from its 2010 NAC Champi-onship team, expectations are high.

Such is the story for the Castletonwomen’s soccer team, which, led by seniorCourtney Chadburn (North Clar endon, Vt.)appears to have many of the tools in place torepeat as league champions and earn theprogram’s second straight trip to the NCAATournament.

The Spartans were dominant in 2010, us-ing a potent of fense and a suf focating de-fense to turn in one of the finest seasons inschool history.

The team tied the program record with 16victories, posted the best winning per cent-age in school history (.825) and didn’t losean NAC match, going 6-0-1 in the r egularseason and 2-0 in the playof fs. The perfectmark also extended the Spartans’ r egularseason conference unbeaten streak to 16 con-tests, stretching all the way back to October2008 in Rutland County.

This season with his nine r eturningstarters, head coach Chris Chapdelaine is

confident that his team, one which led theNAC in scoring and goals-against-averagelast year, can fulfill preseason expectations.“I feel like we could win every game this sea-son. I’m not just saying that, and if we playto our potential this could be an awesomeyear for our program.”

Chapdelaine should get plenty of supportfrom Chadburn, an ECAC All-New Englandselection a year ago and thr ee-time NACPlayer of the Year. The forwar d was an of-fense catalyst for the Spartans, leading theteam and the confer ence in points (50) andgoals (21) and finishing second in the NACin assists. Chadburn also ranked 14th na-tionally with 2.63 points per game and 16thin g oals p er g ame ( 1.11). O n t he r eceivingend of a number of her assists last year wasHillary Cooke (Marlborough, Conn.).Cooke, a transfer from AIC, made a splash inher first season with the team, as she wasnamed first-team All-NAC and finished sec-ond in the league behind Chadburn in points(38) and goals (17).

Though the of fense ranked 16th in thecountry i n s coring ( 3.35 p er g ame) t he d e-fense was equally strong, allowing 16 goalsthe entire season with just two scores in nineconference contests.

Junior Erika Davis (Cambridge, Vt.) wasthe back line of defense for the team, start-ing all 20 games in net for the Spartans andearning first-team All-NAC honors. Davisregistered a 0.80 goals-against-average andalso had a .852 save per centage while im-proving her career record to 23-6-3 at Castle-ton. In front of Davis was a stout defense ledby senior Kelly T etreault (Tolland, Conn.).Tetreault was a second-team all-NAC hon-oree in 2010 and was also named the MVP ofthe NAC T ournament as the Spartans cap-tured the league title. Chapdelaine also ex-pects strong play in the midfield fr om sen-ior Kelly Gerkem (Scottsville, N.Y.).

With such a battle tested team, Chapde-laine put together a tough non-confer enceschedule in or der to pr epare the team forwhat lies ahead. In the season opener onSept. 1, the Spartans look to avenge lastyear ’s loss to RPI when they open their sea-son against the Engineers in T roy, N.Y. Aweek later the team defends its home turfagainst Plattsbur gh in a Thursday nightgame under the lights. Castleton also hastough non-confer ence match-ups with Ply-mouth St. and Keene St. before heading intoconference play against Lyndon on Sept. 17.

RUTLAND — Vermont Division I high school football hasa whole new look this season, as the division expands from10 to 14 teams, with eight teams qualifying for the playoffsinstead of four . Colchester , Middlebury, CVU and MountMansfield all move up from Division II in the expansion.

While the top eight teams in the division will fight it outfor a state championship, the six r emaining teams that donot qualify the playof fs, will also pair of f in "wildcar d"games for a chance to finish their seasons with a victory. Asthe defending state champions, Hartford appears to againhave the early edge as they r eturn several key starters, in-cluding their quarterback.

In Rutland, Coach Mike Nolan enters his 19th season ashead coach, after losing a whopping 12 players to gradua-tion, including starting quarterback Troy Davine. Despiteall the seniors lost, there are still several two-way players re-turning this season including several on the of fensive anddefensive lines.

Returning players on of fense include r unning back Do-minic Brown, wide receiver Kyle Kelly and tight end R yanRagosta , while other returning players with experience in-clude linebacker Mike McCarr oll and linemen Mack Shea,John Norman, Cam Kennedy and Matt Hock.

The RHS Raiders appear to have an inter esting mix ofyoung and experienced players, and they will need contri-butions from both, considering the amount of seniors lostfrom l ast s eason, i ncluding f ive w ho w ere n amed t o t heShrine Bowl team. In a r ecent, thr ee-way scrimmage inKeene, NH, the Raiders held their own in some extreme heat,

hopefully showing a little toughness that will go a long waytowards a successful season.

The Raiders will contend for a playoff spot, but will alsoneed to stay away from injuries because there does not seemto be a lot of depth on the roster.

At M UHS i n M iddlebury, C oach D ennis S mith l eads ateam that made it to the Division II title game last season butthe Tigers are now, not only a division higher, but also bringin a new quarterback in Dylan Robinson. Robinson movesunder center after playing split end last year.

As always, however, Middlebury will run the ball. Lead-ing the ground attack will be Jor dan Connor, Patrick Foleyand Marshall Hastings, with an offensive line that includesreturning players Austin Quesnel, Dylan Lamphere and JoeyZeno. Other linemen include Gabe LaBer ge and RamseyBronson. T ight en ds i nclude D anny S colten, S am U silton,with Mitchell Clark and Sam Smith at split end.

Although the T igers have plenty of experienced seniorsand juniors on the r oster, they too, will need to stay awayfrom injuries because of a lack of depth. It is hard to gaugehow a team will fair when jumping up a division, but theTigers are coming off a strong season and do have some ex-perience, which should go a long way towards making somenoise in their new division.

At Mt. Anthony H.S., first year coach Bill Hay will be look-ing to establish the Patriots r unning game, as compar ed tothe "spread" offense they have run in previous seasons. Thetwo main running backs are the junior tandem of Alex Crossand Tyler Kunzmann.

Returning at quarterback is senior Chris Redding, who canhelp settle the new of fense with his experience. The of fen-sive line will be a key component to the success of this team,

which includes Mike Plaisance, Jake Sausville, Zach bahanand Chris Colvin. Redding's main targets on the outside willbe Juan Restrepo and tight end Josh Purvinis.

Defensively, middle linebacker Tex Seward is a third-yearstarter and is the glue, while defensive backs Ben David andDan Lawson should for a formidable tandem in the second-ary.

Head coach Mike Stone at Hartfor d H.S. will look to r e-turning quarterback Tucker Stone, his son, for his leadershipon the field. But the ground game is what this team relies onand several r unning backs will get the ball, including T royBell, Jonathan Carlson, Joseph Wood, Brandon Tetreault andMiles Lathan.

However, when the Hurricanes do thr ow the ball, Stonewill be looking for the likes of Nolan Frechette, Owen New-ton, Travis Wilson and Shane hamilton as targets. Defensive-ly and because the r oster numbers ar e not overwhelming,several players will see significant time on both sides of theball, including Shannon O'Neil, Patrick McGrath, and Bob-by Annis.

The offensive line should also be a strength, featuring re-turning players Bobby Murray, Alex Sykas, Joe Johnson andMike Dulac. This will be a key aspect to the success of thisteam, pounding the ball on the gr ound and eating up theclock, behind an experienced offensive line.
