Fair Haven Steamrolls Windsor in Opener

The Fair Haven football team ushered in the Adam Perry coaching era, steamrolling Windsor in the season opener on Saturday. Perry’s squad enters the 2024 campaign with visions of a state championship dancing in their heads, and on this afternoon did nothing to make anyone doubt them against a Division III perennial power.

The Slaters scored in various ways involving many players as they blew this contest open early. It was a total team effort.

In the first half, Cody Adams tossed two touchdown passes to Jack Almeida and another to Konner Savage.

Sam Kyhill added a 21-yard touchdown run and Max Kyhill scored on runs of 35 and 60 yards.

In the third quarter, Anthony Szabo scored on a four-yard run.

Logan Knipes rounded out the scoring with a 17-yard scamper.

Fair Haven is 1-0. Windsor is 0-1.
