Last Friday’s Oxford football game against Clarkston was a fund-raiser for Miracle Quilts, a local nonprofit that sews quilts for wounded troops and veterans. A total of $1,806 was raised for the group to continue its good work.

Oxford players wore special jerseys bearing the names of veterans and active-duty military personnel.
