A Weekend Trip to Vermont!

It was wild and wacky, but the Bombers pulled off the win.

Ithaca’s football team rebounded from a tough 37-6 loss to St. John Fisher with a 41-6 victory at Norwich University this Saturday. The Bombers win improved them to 4-1 overall and 2-1 in the Empire 8. While a win’s a win, IC certainly played very sloppy, fumbling the ball 4 times and throwing an interception as well.

For me, one of the broadcaster’s on WICB, I really enjoyed the trip because it gave me a chance to see a military school for the first time. It was a cool experience getting to see all the cadets marching out onto the field and doing their drills. In addition, the school had a tank on the field that even served in Normandy, and they also had a cannon that they fired after Norwich kick-offs and touchdowns. It was a very cool experience.

However, it was even better getting to see the school when it was family weekend. Every family, and I mean, every family literally came out to support a team, even though it is not very good. In addition, the athletic facilities were very well kept and very nice for a Division III facility. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience in Vermont this past weekend and think you should visit a military school one day. Take a look at the photo of me with the Tank at the Stadium!
