Windham rolls to another lopsided win

WINDHAM — The Windham Jaguars continued their scorching start of the season, defeating Sanborn 47-12. In front of a crowd of over 1,000 fans, Windham put 40 points on the board for the fourth straight game and are showing no signs of slowing down.

“We have different guys that can get the job done. Every week somebody else has stepped up,” said Windham head coach Bill Raycraft. “This week it was Kurtis Jolicoeur, last week it was Matt Shea. Every week we have an answer for what the defenses are showing us.”

In last week’s road victory over John Stark Regional, it was junior Matt Shea who led the Jaguars in rushing with 119 yards. This week, it was senior Kurtis Jolicoeur’s turn to lead the way, tallying up 99 yards. Shea’s biggest play on the night was a nifty 45-yard interception that he returned for a touchdown in the third quarter. He also added another score on the ground.

It was Sanborn that got on the board first in this one, orchestrating a time consuming touchdown drive late in the first quarter. Windham quickly answered following a kickoff return by Kellin Bail that landed the Jaguars inside the five-yard-line of Sanborn. Shane Lafond promptly scored from one yard out a few plays later.

The Jaguars caught Sanborn off guard on the ensuing kickoff, recovering an onside kick just prior to the end of the first quarter. Windham capitalized on the aggressive tactic, driving down the field and setting up a nine yard run from Shea.

“We want to force teams to defend us every play and every minute,” said Raycraft. “Regardless of where we are on the field, we are going to focus on getting the ball back.

“Every time we go on the field for a kickoff, we want the other team to be scared, said Jolicoeur, who also added a rushing touchdown and a two-point conversion. “We don’t ever want them ever to feel comfortable and we don’t want them ever to cheer about anything.”

Windham’s offense has been clicking all season. They have scored 194 points in just four weeks, including a 56-point win opening night at Hollis-Brookline.

“Everything has been great right now. Everyone’s getting carries, everyone’s getting yards and the line is just opening up holes for us,” said Jolicoeur.

Windham will travel to Souhegan next week, and Sanborn will host Conval next Saturday.

Windham crushes Trinity

WINDHAM — Streaking 80 yards to score in just under 90 seconds before the half, Trinity High danced to intermission, energized by the thoughts of an impending victory rally.
 
Windham High put those visions to rest pretty quick, scoring two quick third-quarter TDs to finish the rout of the Pioneers, 41-12, before about 800 fans at the Jags' home opener.
 
"They always have their kids ready, and we knew this was going to be a fight," said Windham QB Brendan McInnis.
 
Trinity has owned this newly-formed grid rivalry, taking three of the four previous games including playoff matches in 2012 and 2013. The Jags made a bit of a statement to the contrary yesterday, racking up 478 yards of offense.
 
Kellin Bail scored three times, cranking out 186 yards on nine carries with one three-yard TD catch. McInnis was has efficiently lethal self, hitting 7 of 12 (with three drops) for 95 yards and a pair of scores. He also broke Trinity's back with a 78-yard across-the-field TD scramble in a 9-carry, 89-yard rushing day.
 
"As much as it hurt them to watch it, our coaches spent a lot of hours watching that November (playoff loss to Trinity) on film. They had us prepared for what they were bringing to us today offensively," said Mcinnis. "The rest was on our offensive line.  It might have been the best game I've seen them play in four years. They played awesome. Guys like Mike Bedient, who literally has played all five spots on the line. Kevin (Curran), Pat Hume, Kyle Adamson. They may be unsung outside the team, but they're our guys inside the locker room."
 
Up 27-12 at the break, Windham was in charge, but had to wonder what the third quarter might bring. But Bail ripped off a 65-yard TD, and Kurtis Jolicoeur ambled 50 yards up the gut on third-and-two as the Jags extended to move to 2-0 on the young season.
 
Next week, the Jags hit the road for Weare with a Saturday matinee date against 1-1 John Stark.
