When making the decision to attend a camp, it is all about finding a camp where you can get the most eyes on you and to get better. FBS or D1 college camps are a great way to get noticed…
For a while, athletically, Deerfield Academy was known mostly as an elite boys lacrosse school. Football-wise, it was known as a competitive, but not dominant, program. That is starting to change. Under the guidance of coach Brian Barbato, Deerfield has grown into a gridiron power in the ever-competitive NEPSAC Class A division. In 2019, Deerfield beat a previously-unbeaten Milton Academy team in a NEPSAC bowl. Then, in the next NEPSAC…

Ten schools will be participating in the inaugural New England Show Days which will take place this Monday and Tuesday. The Schools will host 30 -45 Min “Pro Day” type workouts on their own campus. Workouts will be staggered throughout allowing coaches to travel school to school and physically see the kids workout. The idea is the brainchild of Avon Old Farms Head Coach Jon Wholley. Wholley spent years as…
Always a good program in the Independent School League, Milton Academy has taken some steps forward in recent years. The Mustangs, under legendary coach Kevin MacDonald, went unbeaten in league play both in 2019 and 2021 (the ISL did not play due to covid in 2020). And for as good as Milton was those years, the Mustangs will compete for a tite in 2022, as well. And it is not often that…
After de-committing from Boston College earlier this year, Catholic Memorial defensive end Boubacar Traore announced his verbal commitment to Notre Dame. The Irish currently have the No. 1 class in the country for the class of 2023’s 247 composite rankings.

When Milton Academy tight end Andrew Rappleyea committed to Michigan on January 16th, he did it because he thought that was the best place for him athletically and academically. Despite verbally committing to Michigan, the Wolverines were not Rappleyea’s first choice. He always wanted to play at Penn State. The New York native was disappointed that the Nittany Lions couldn’t offer him a scholarship at the end of last year….
There is a bit of a conundrum now with St. John’s of Shrewsbury. On the one hand, the Pioneers are located in Central Massachusetts, and that part has not changed. On the other, St. John’s is a member of the Catholic Conference, a league with all teams from Eastern Mass. So what is it? Is St. John’s an EMass or CMass team. Right now, the Pioneers get ranked in both EMass…
By Adam Kurkjian It is good to be on top, and that is where Catholic Memorial is right now in the world of MIAA football. Coming off an undefeated season and Div. 2 state championship, the Knights are feeling good about themselves, and that bleeds over into recruiting. Offers are rolling in and there are college commitments aplenty. This past weekend, we talked to CM coach John DiBiaso about that….
