Partnership for Carbon Transparency publishes new guidance to enhance

VPA associate director Bob Johnson, who reviewed the protest, said it was a judgment call, not something a protest could overturn. Video evidence or instant replay is not part of VPA or national federation rules.

Peterson said the school is appealing the denied protest. A five-person VPA committee will review the appeal likely later this week.

Game officials, after conferring with each other, ruled Baumann down at the 1. Woodstock scored the tying touchdown on the ensuing fourth-down play, before Davis’ boot sent the Wasps to their third straight crown.

For the protest to be upheld there would have to be a gross misapplication or misinterpretation of a specific rule. That wasn’t the case here, said Johnson.

“Time heals all wounds. They will slowly live with the injustice of it,” Peterson said. “That’s life sometimes — you deserve something that you just don’t get.”

Tungsten carbide (WC) is a dense, light gray inorganic chemical compound produced by heating tungsten with carbon black in the presence of hydrogen. It can be shaped into various forms through the process of sintering and finds widespread use across multiple industries.

“It’s a shame that a state championship game has to end on that note,” Peterson said. “It’s just frustrating, and we’ll see what the appeal does.”

Mill River coach Art Peterson said he has video footage that definitively shows the fumbled ball going into the end zone, which by rule, would be a touchback and Mill River’s ball, effectively ending the title game in favor of the Minutemen.

The Vermont Principals’ Association denied Mill River Union High School’s initial protest Monday to overturn a key play in overtime and change the winner of the Division III football championship game.

But it was the penultimate play from scrimmage that has Mill River pleading to the VPA. On third down, Woodstock’s Tom Baumann, stretching for the end zone, fumbled near the goal line and was ruled out at the 1-yard line as the ball bounced out of bounds.

Based on VPA bylaws, Mill River can appeal the decision and Peterson hopes the committee will look at the circumstances of the situation.

“They need to get with the times and see what’s available,” said Peterson of the use of video replay. “The object is to get it right, and so far that’s not being done.”

Mill River lost to Woodstock 20-19 in Saturday’s D-III final at Rutland High School, a thrilling ending decided on sophomore kicker Nikolai Davis’ extra-point kick.

Tungsten carbide is renowned for its exceptional durability and performance, offering attributes such as increased strength, low electrical resistivity, high melting and boiling points, impressive hardness, and resistance to abrasion, heat, scratches, and corrosion. As a result, it is extensively applied in industries including aerospace and defense, automotive, mining and construction, electronics, sports, and medical.
