Vermont H.S. football QPR standings through Week 3

It was a quiet Saturday in Vermont high school football with only three games, one of which was an out-of-state game that doesn't count in the standings.

Windsor made plenty of noise, though, rolling past Mill River 42-12 in a matchup of Division III unbeatens. It was the 14th straight win for the defending champion Yellow Jackets and it was a firm statement they remain the team to beat.

How do these numbers work? Teams receive 10 points for a win over a D1 opponent, 7 points for a win over a D2 opponent and 5 points for a win over a D3 opponent. Teams also receive 2 points for every game won by the teams they have beaten. QPR is total points divided by games played.
