It has been some time since Dartmouth had an impact player from northern New England. Could a 6-foot-3, 200-pound running back from Maine be the next one? Tyler Bridge, named the Maine Sunday Telegram Player of the Year, led the state with 2,390 yards rushing (11.1 yards per carry) and 45 touchdowns (including two on returns) as he helped Wells to its third consecutive state championship.But . . .
On the one hand, as the Sunday Telegram notes, he put those numbers up playing in Maine Class D.
On the other hand, in addition to Dartmouth he's being recruited by national semifinalist Maine and perennial NCAA qualifier New Hampshire and that ought to be worth something.
Green Alert Take: I vividly remember Dartmouth recruiting a six-man All-American from Texas once and the coaches telling me he might not have played on a regular high school team but a good football player is a good football player no matter where he played. Lyle Campbell '04 ended up starting on the Big Green defense.
