Successful night for Catholic Conference Showcase
For many high school football players, a showcase is a good way to get on the radar of college coaches. But for Xaverian’s Micah Amedee, the defensive lineman is more than well known. He is a verbal commit to Boston College. Did that stop the 6-foot-3, 270-pounder from participating in Thursday night’s Catholic Conference Football Showcase at Xaverian? Absolutely not. Amedee took part, and that says a lot both about……
Marcus Jones could be on cusp of breakout season
While fans worry and debate just how much talent the offense has, it’s safe to say that the Patriots defense is still pretty loaded. Barmore, Godchaux, Judon, Dugger, Bentley, Uche, Gonzalez.

Dugger acknowledges commitment from team to him & others can help in long run
Initially, when the Patriots decided to ‘transition tag’ safety Kyle Dugger this offseason instead of giving him the outright franchise tag, it felt like the organization was making things more tense and unnecessarily difficult. Ultimately, a deal was reached and Kyle Dugger received a phone call while on the treadmill. Now, he’s got a new four-year, $58 million contract extension that keeps him as one of the foundational pieces and…
