Thursday--April 17th, 2014

Well yesterday was a busy day. I went from Jaffrey, NH to the Lehey Clinic in Burlington, MA and from there to Amherst to see the Spring Game.

It was fun. The players continue to have high energy. I got to talk with Coach Hodges, Sign Man, Matty Vautour, Andy (who does the photography for Maroon Musket) and several of the players parents. It felt like a November game with temperatures in the high 30's.

Again, the defense was still ahead of the offense, but the two JUCO offensive linemen, the two JUCO TE's, Alex Kenney and Blake Frohnapfel are not yet with the team.

I took a lot of images and I'll try to have an album up soon. Click on the images below and Blogger displays a larger view.
