Ben Cobb of Gray-New Gloucester, left, battles for possession with a Maranacook player on Saturday at Lewiston High School. First-year Gray-NG coach Will Burdick said his team has embraced the underdog role. "I think Gray is known as a program that is known as hard workers," Burdick said. "We have kids who are willing to work hard and we are really excited. We are seen as the underdogs sometimes because we are in a super-good conference, but we really embrace that role and we have guys here that are working hard and have a talented team that people will come to see in the fall."
