Small towns have a great sense of community, competition and cooperation amongst themselves. It is a natural thing.
Competition and rivalry are always strong in High School athletics. Long histories of rivalries are witnessed in full force during Thanksgiving Day football games when kids, parents and grandparents come out a cheer for their almamater.
This year the communities in the Quiet Corner have formed a whole new sense of cooperation that will change Thanksgiving football games in the area forever.
Putnam, Tourtellotte (Thompson), and Ellis Tech (Killingly & Brooklyn) have formed together to create one great football cooperative team. The seniors of the team named themselves "Pride".
Get ready to cheer on the Quinebaug Valley Pride, and all they stand for in our great area of cooperation and invention out of necessity in the Quiet Corner!
