    The Poultney Blue Devils

    For generations we have cheered on the Poultney Blue Devils, the name given to our high school athletic teams. The boys’ and girls’ teams have won many state championships through-out the years. The banners for each win are displayed in the gym for all to see. Spring will see crowds supporting the baseball, softball and golf teams.  In the fall, we are very proud of our Friday evening pep rallies up main street, led by the fire and police departments, and with fans lined along the streets as the student march their way from GMC to the high school on the hill.  While there, the cheerleaders and football players give speeches and cheer by the bonfire before entering the school for the traditional Friday night dance, sponsored by the cheerleaders and football players.  The fall brings us soccer games, too, boys and girls, both home and away.  In the winter, the gym is full of fans rooting for our basketball teams. The Poultney Booster Club holds events throughout the year which help support our athletic teams. PHS and the Poultney community are very proud of their athletic teams….Go Blue Devils!!
