High School Varsity field and The A Squad was on
a mission to continue their undefeated season.

The Windham Middle
School "B" team dominated the Marshwood B Team

on Saturday night.
Windham took the
opening drive and marched downfield for the
game's first touchdown on quarterback Calvin
Field's 1 yard run. Windham converted the two
point conversion to make it 8-0.
Marshwood's first
drive resulted in a turnover on downs on the
Windham 26 yard line. Windham's Josiah Purves
then took the handoff, got outside and ripped
off a 74 yard touchdown run only to have it
called back on a holding call. Windham was
unable to convert the first down and had to
punt.

their opponents 47 yard line. Josiah Purves
quickly turned that into a touchdown run and a
14-0 Windham lead.
