Who is Daniel Boone

Columbia closes its non-league schedule tomorrow night with perhaps the toughest team on their schedule.
No, its not Lancaster Catholic, rather the Daniel Boone Blazers who went deep[ into the District Three playoffs last season and a team the Tide dominated when they played a few years back.
Boone is 2-0 on the season with convincing opening wins over Donegal by a 40-0 score and Susquehannock last week by a 35-14 score.
The Blazers play in Division One of the Berks Inter-County League and have a number of key players back from a team that went 9-4 a year ago.
Coach Dave Bodolus is getting credit for turning the Boone program into a District Three Class AAA power. When the Tide played them before, Boone wasn’t that good and the Tide owns a two-game winning streak over the Blazers..
Leading the way for the Blazers will be quarterback Jon Monteiro, who threw for five touchdown passes against Donegal.
Monteiro’s favorite targets are Zach Keely, who is also an all-state defensive back and Mitchell Steed.
Monteiro is just a junior and in his first year as a starter.
It will be the last tune-up for the Crimson Tide, who starts league play next week against defending Section 3 co-champ Lampeter-Strasburg.
Like it has been all year, kickoff is 7 p.m. tomorrow night.
