H.S. Football: Raiders better than Greyhounds on balance sheet
WALES — The rest of Western Class D has been given fair warning — Oak Hill is a very balanced football team, and as it showed Saturday, even cold, wind, rain and a very good Lisbon defense that had been giving up less than 10 points per game couldn’t knock them off-balance. Alex Mace rushed […]

HS Football: Raiders dominate Black Bears, 38-0
The Raiders don’t look past anyone, least of all Maranacook. That was bad news for the young Black Bears, who didn’t have an answer for Oak Hill’s balanced offense or stout defense as the Raiders cruised to a 38-0 win on Saturday. “It feels awesome beating Maranacook,” said senior two-way lineman Bayley Beaulieu, who led […]
