The Wildcats defeated Framingham at home 9-0 at the home opener, giving them a strong 2-0 start to the season. 

Coming into the season, expectations were high for the team. Being ranked top 20 in Massachusetts, and coming off of a near championship season, the pressure was on for Coach Dembowski and his team. 

Leading the team on Thursday, September 14, was Patrick Miller, the senior quarterback looking to fill the shoes of Owen Mchugh. Miller threw five touchdown passes on Thursday for a total of 200 passing yards. 

Some highlights included: Ferris Collins catching two touchdowns and Luke Haley, Ronan Sammon, and Luke Hartford eachcatching one as well. 

Sophomore quarterback Patrick Collins also ran for his first touchdown ever. 

When asked how he thinks the season is going and what the future looks like, sophomore star Ronan Sammon said, “We are off to a great start, and I really think that we could make it all the way back to Gillette this year.”

So far, the Wildcats are living up to the expectations the seniors last year left for them. Luke Haley scored a touchdown in the final moments of the first quarter, which left many Milton fans satisfied knowing that the game was now out of reach for Framingham. 

With another blowout win under their belts, and with the obvious confidence from the players, this start to the season is leaving Milton fans wondering: Could we be looking at another championship run?
