Class D Football: Somebody’s ‘0’ has to go in Orono between Oak Hill, MCI
Close competition vs. dizzying numbers. Subtracting their Class D football championship showdown a year ago, there is no reliable means other than game film and conjecture to handicap Friday night’s rematch between Oak Hill and Maine Central Institute.
