COLCHESTER - Defense wins football games; just ask the Mount St. Joseph Mounties.

The Mounties made two huge defensive plays in the fourth period and also prevented the Colchester Lakers from scoring three times inside MSJ’s 10-yard line in the second half to pull out a 13-12 nonleague victory here Friday.

Louis Altobell tackled Lakers QB Jack LeClerc just shy of the goal line on a two-point conversion try with 2:38 remaining in the fourth period to preserve MSJ’s narrow lead.

BURLINGTON — The win has been so long in coming that Mount St. Joseph almost didn’t know how to celebrate the 21-12 victory over Burlington Friday at Buck Hard Field.

Alex Raymond missed head coach Chip Forte with the customary water-bucket bath. But once the 24-man team drew a tight circle around their coach, the Mounties bounced up and down chanting and whooping in victory.
