Friday night football had the adrenaline pumping for the
Windham Eagles who hosted the Bangor Rams and shut the Rams out of scoring. The
Eagles improved their record to 2-0 with a win over Bangor 42-0.
After traveling last year for Windham's game against
Bangor resulting in a 6-0 win for Windham it was thought that the Rams would
show up in Windham with something to prove. Windham’s Coach Perkins was very
pleased with the team’s effort on the field going on to say "I think
Bangor played hard but when one of their top players went out of the game I
think things started to snowball for them."
Griffen Jacobson scored three touchdowns and Kyle Houser
added two more for the Eagles. The defensive line looked strong and defended
quarterback Desmond Leslie as needed. The Eagles offensive line seemed to just
plow through Bangor’s line like they were warm butter. Whenever Bangor was able
to bring the ball near the end zone they just couldn't seem to finish.
Perkins feels the team is doing a great job playing as a
team. "We have had guys play different roles and be very unselfish."
During Friday night’s game coach said, "Our offense
was very sharp, we had 11 guys bust their tail and do their job at the same
time. When you can get guys on the same page good things are going to
happen."
This Friday’s game the Eagles travel to Portland to face
the Bulldogs (2-0) at Fitzpatrick Stadium.
"We’ve had a real good rival the past few years with
Portland. They are a real good team. Their kids play extremely hard and they’re
talented," Perkins said. Windham will prepare themselves as they do every
week, by spending a lot of time watching film and doing classroom time as well
as practice on the field.
