Week 3 in D IV football was in a word Insane! Plymouth's winning streak has come to it's end. Lebanon and Trinity both finish with come from behind wins to stay unbeaten. MV and Monadnock pick up there first victories.
So as we head into Week 4, some interesting match-ups stand in front of us.
The game we've all been waiting for. Plymouth visits Trinity for (what is still) clash of the Titans, in a possible playoff preview. While there's not quite as much drama as there would have been, had Plymouth come in with their streak in tact. This is still 2 powerhouse programs who will be in the thick of it a month from now. The big question is how will Plymouth react after last weeks loss to Kennett? Look for a battle to unfold in Manchester Friday night!
Lebanon visits Laconia - While not as much drama here, Laconia was on the verge of upending Trinity last week with some spectacular special team play. However, the Pioneers were able to pull it out on a deep pass to 6'7 TE Andrew Lauderdale in the 4th quarter to come from behind for the victory. Lebanon, found itself in 21-0 hole but managed to right the ship and stay perfect on the season thanks to a Justin Judd FG as time expired to pull off a 24-21 come from behind victory itself. This should be another tight game with the Laconia crowd raucous as ever (it is homecoming after all!).
Kennett visits Hanover - Way up after their epic victory over Plymouth, the Eagles come to a winless Hanover team. This Hanover team is much better than their record reflects though, so look for Carney and company to give the visiting Eagles all they want and more.
Stark visits Monadnock - After winning a tight one last week, Monadnock looks to even their record as they host the Generals. Stark looked much better last week in their game against MV though, so the Huskies better be focused and ready to play this weekend.
MV visits Kingswood - Both teams look to get back to .500 in this game. MV looks to have corrected their offensive woes, scoring 35 points last week. However, Kingswood only allowed 9 points in their loss last week, so this looks to be a tougher test for the Pride.
