Shrine players have a lot to digest

The players who will participate in this year's Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl were officially introduced at the Shrine Game luncheon Sunday. This year's game will be played Aug. 2 at Dartmouth's Memorial Field.

New Hampshire leads the series 39-13-2. Vermont's last victory came in 2000 (47-40).

This year's Vermont roster includes Windsor running back Trevor Varney, who rushed for 2,553 yards and 40 touchdowns last season.

New Hampshire won last year's game, 23-20, on a late field goal by Pinkerton Academy's Bryan Farris.
