New Hampshire dominates Vermont in Maple Sugar Bowl

By Heita Miki | August 5, 2008

Courtesy of the Nashua Telegraph New Hampshire continued its run of dominance in the 55th annual Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl, played on Saturday, as the men from the Granite State won the contest for the eighth straight time in convincing fashion, 42-0. Vermont was able to go toe-to-toe with New Hampshire in the first half, but Vermont failed to put any points on the board in two trips to the end zone when the Vermonters allowed two crucial interceptions that killed their momentum. "We felt very good at halftime," Vermont head coach Mike Law of U-32 High School said to the Barre-Montpelier Times Argus.
