Winslow fans back their teamCredit Winslow High School football fans with sticking by their team despite all the adversity it faced this year. A contingent of more than 200 showed up in Gardiner on Friday night for what most surely expected would be a loss. Down to less than 20 players due to injury and suspension, the Black Raiders called up some freshman players to the varsity for the game. Over the past two weeks, they were shut out by big scores against Leavitt and Waterville. Friday night’s game was more of the same as Gardiner won 35-0. Yet the fans stayed behind the players from beginning to end, encouraging them until the final play and cheering on the little victories they achieved in an otherwise one-sided games. Nor did they get on the coaches. Certainly there are better days ahead for the Black Raiders who suffered their first losing season since 1990, but it’s nice to know they have the support of their fans win or lose.
