Monday Morning Quarterback: Time to ask teams: ‘Who are you?’
One local football coach said after a game Friday night that his team was “still trying to find our identity.” Never mind that said coach and team had just won a game scoring 51 points while giving up just six.

H.S. Football: Weekend blitz
Friday, 7 p.m. The Red Eddies played Portland close for a half, and played Cheverus close for 48 minutes, but lost both games.

Monday Morning Quarterback: Red Eddies, Ramblers catch some drama
Chemistry means a lot in football. The chemistry of all five offensive linemen. The chemistry between a center and quarterback, between a long-snapper, holder and kicker. The chemistry of an entire defense. On Friday night, the chemistry between a quarterback and his go-to receiver was featured twice for local teams. Two kids playing pass-and-catch went […]
