KINGSTON — Yesterday against Bow in its season finale, Sanborn took a step backwards.

Five minutes into action, Bow's all-star running back Alex Foley was knocked out of the game after a face mask penalty. Sanborn also forced four Falcon turnovers as savvy pass coverage led by Dylan Spence (two interceptions) and Ryan Manasian (a diving first-quarter pick) shut down Bow's passing game. Defensive end Seth Sherman added a fumble recovery to the list, and solid work on the kick return game gave the hosts strong field position.

LANGDON, N.H. — For the first time since the rebirth of Sanborn football (in 2008), the Indians enjoyed the bus ride home.

KINGSTON — It may not have been the result Mike Drouin was hoping for, but the Sanborn coach felt positive following the contest.

“We’ve been in the last couple games,” Drouin said. “We fight to the end. We hit and we don’t quit, but I think right now we don’t believe we can win. I think there’s that little doubt in the backs of our heads that they’re waiting for the wheels to fall off. They just need to believe in themselves.”

SOMERSWORTH — Sanborn fell just short of winning its second straight game last night, falling to Somersworth 7-2.

Trailing 7-0 late in the fourth quarter, the Indians drove the ball downfield in an attempt to at least tie the game. With two minutes to go, they advanced to the Somersworth 10 and, with a minute remaining, they moved to within the one-yard line before failing to punch it in on fourth down.

KINGSTON — What a difference a year makes.

After a tentative 2009 campaign, Sanborn knows better what it's doing. Plays are run crisper and more cohesively, the defense is more aggressive and intuitive, and, most importantly, mistakes are shaken off and corrected rather than dwelled upon to negative effect.

WINDHAM, N.H. — Like many of his Windham High School teammates, junior James Beaulieu dreamed of the Jaguars winning their first-ever varsity football game.

But Beaulieu went a step farther. He wanted to score Windham’s first touchdown.
