MILFORD — It’s always easier to go through a week of football practice after a victory. When it’s your first win in more than a year, it’s even better.

So you can imagine things were quite upbeat for the Law football team this past week, coming off a 28-12 win over Wilbur Cross that earned the Lawmen Register Team of the Week laurels following a vote at nhregister.com.

“Last year I was also a captain,” senior George Knoth said. “To be the face of team that was 0-10, the laughing stock of the whole conference, was kind of embarrassing. To come in this week having won, one of my teachers put a (congratulatory) note on my locker. And to have everyone patting you on the back saying, ‘We can’t wait for the next game,’ we haven’t had that around here for a while.”
