Clinton topples Tigers for third season loss
Clinton 28 Fort Hamilton 7
With both teams looking for their first win of the season, a banged up (0-2) Fort Hamilton Tiger team ventured to the Bronx to meet the (0-2) Governors of DeWitt Clinton High. Since the beginning of the season, the Tigers’ inactive list has been growing losing key players to injury. In fact, this week the Tigers lost key running back Michael Brooks to a collarbone injury, in addition to their long snapper Petros Papadakos when he simply rolled his ankle in practice.
In addition to an anticipated win, the Tigers were also looking forward to avenging the team that knocked them out of the second round of the playoffs last season. But despite their motivation, the limping Tigers lost their third consecutive game of the 2012 season.
