Ashley Smith '05, and Mitch Sawyer '05 Sports at Foxcroft Academy Foxcroft Academy Excels in Sports with Two State Championships hile Foxcroft Academy is often noted for the academic achieve- ments of its students, state championships in both football Wand wrestling have brought it additional recognition. In football, the last time Foxcroft Academy earned back-to-back trips to the Class C State Championship was in 1996 and 1997. The Ponies won their previous state title in ’96 by defeating Old Orchard Beach in the championship game, then fell to Lisbon in the ’97 final. Last year the Ponies made an appearance in the Class C State Cham- pionship game, but fell to Boothbay in a heartbreaking 25-20 loss. This year the Ponies compiled an 11-0 record, their second straight undefeated season, with an offense averaging 400 yards per game. It was also a special season for Coach Paul Withee who not only achieved his 100th career win and won his second gold ball as coach, but had the privilege of winning the gold ball with his son Josh Withee ’04 as the team’s quarterback. The team was awarded championship rings 2003 State Class C Championship Football Team; Captains Lincoln Robinson, Josh Withee, Max Kennedy, Madison Earnest for their fine accomplishment. In wrestling, Foxcroft Academy has not won a state champion- ship in the 42 years that wrestling has been a varsity sport. Wrestlers were regularly seen and heard every morning at 6:15 as they began their morning workout with a run on the cross country trails of the Academy, shouting out a chant as they ran together. Local residents up early on those cold and snowy December and January mornings who drove by the Academy saw these dedicated students log in an hour and a half workout before classes started. This work ethic, in- stilled by a dedicated and passionate coaching staff, has produced a number of individual state championships, but never the state title. This year the Ponies took home five individual state titles as well as the team state championship. Winning individual titles for the Ponies were Max Kennedy at 145, Caleb Pelletier at 152, Randy Briggs at 171, Josh Pelletier at 215 and Chris Lewis at 275. As in football, Foxcroft Academy battled Lisbon for the state title, and when it was all over, Foxcroft wrestlers out- scored Lisbon by 30 points.
