    Alco 2024 Varsity football schedule

    I would set the over/under on Alco wins at 4.5 Alco schedule has Homecoming listed at 2:00. FH has it listed at 12:30. I'm pretty sure it's 12:30.

    Does Maryland need a competitive-balance rule?

    I like how professional soccer does relegation. Teams can move up or down a division based on performance. I believe the Mountain West is kicking around the idea of spitting into two divisions, an upper and a lower, and using the soccer relegation model. It always seemed to me that classifying...

    Does Maryland need a competitive-balance rule?

    "In a move coach Mike Warfield called déjà vu, the PIAA has notified Aliquippa that its football team will be forced up another classification before next season. The Quips won the Class 4A state title this fall and were runners-up in 2022, and the PIAA now plans to move them up to 5A under its...

    High School Enrollments

    Berlin beat FH in OT last night in boy's basketball so they do a lot with very little. Good coaching can overcome small numbers.

    Class 1A Title Game FH vs MR

    Fort Hill could have beaten 4 of the other 5 state champs this year. However, you guys that say MR could beat Dunbar, Stephen Decatur or Oakdale are living on Planet Delusional. MR did not trounce everybody they played this year. Frankfort, Alco and Northern took them to the wire in the regular...

    FH-ALCO Homecoming

    FH take a knee? Like the JV team trying to punch in another TD on the game's final play the other night? Up 42-7, instead of showing sportsmanship, they rushed to the line of scrimmage with under ten seconds left and quick snapped the ball. Fate denied them as the kid fumbled at the goal line...

    Class 1A West Regional Playoff Bracket

    MPSSAA ruined the playoffs with the ridiculous everybody makes it nonsense and expansion to 6 classes in a small state like Maryland. 4 classes for all sports except football. So 1A is basically down to 3 teams that can win a state title each year, FH heads and shoulders above then Mountain...

    Okay, let's get this week started.

    Special Teams! MR punter was key in first game as he made FH drive the field. Penalties and turnovers more apt to happen when you must go 80 yards instead of 30. FH has lived in opponents' territory in playoffs. If MR wins field position battle again, they should win the game. But if FH can...

    What is your favorite homecoming game?

    1980 Homecoming game. 13-10 Alco in OT. The famous Refosco speech, "Are you mice or men" when he challenged the offensive line on 4th and goal at the 2 in OT. Alco line was the strength of the team that year. They went 12-0 and won state title. They were known as the Cardiac Campers as they won...

    Ridge Wanted It More

    30-8 Final was misleading. Mountain Ridge was the better team on this night and won the line of scrimmage. However, it was 17-8 with 5:45 left and I believe the FH coaches made two critical mistakes. First, you have to kick the PAT to make it a one possession game. Even with the offsides and...

    Bob Parasiliti's column on the playoffs

    Amen! MPSSAA has ruined Maryland High School football, especially in 1A, especially in Western MD. Nothing to look forward to. Nobody to offer a real challenge to a great program like FH. It will be FH vs MR again for a watered down 1A title. And we all pretty much knew this on Labor Day. So it...

    Fort Hill adds Martinsburg to football schedule

    With MPSSAA permanently approving 6 classes for football which means every team now makes the playoffs, there is zero reason FH shouldn't be playing Martinsburg each year. FH could play a BW basketball type schedule and go 3-7 but as long as they can beat Alco and Mt Ridge chances are they will...

    Alco/FH game

    That's smart and what we have always done around here for freshman and JV games. The whole purpose of Thanksgiving was to resurrect the tradition of Turkey Day game. But the key there is Turkey Day as in on Thanksgiving day. To play it the day after means nothing so they should have kept with...

    Alco/FH game

    Alco coach was on the radio this morning. Apparently Washington county decided to only play within their own county so Alco/Clear Spring and FH/South Hagerstown games have been cancelled.

    Alco/FH game

    I find it strange Alco and FH playing twice at beginning of season and not at all at the end of the season. I would have liked to see Alco/FH weeks 5 and 8.

    Ty inactive today

    Steelers need a reliable 3rd down back. He would be an upgrade over Samuels and he would be reunited with McFarland. Offer a 7th round pick. With the way Conners always gets hurt Ty would probably get plenty of playing time.

    Football to restart?

    7 games maximum. I still think Alco/FH should play Thanksgiving Day for tradition. Even if only 250 fans allowed in stadium. Maybe get a waiver for that day and allow 1000. Plenty of room in the stadium to social distance with 1000-2000 fans.

    Frankfort 46 | Hampshire 0 | Final

    None of this makes sense. In Ohio most high schools are playing as well as the Browns, the Bengals and the University of Cincinnati but Ohio State isn't allowed. In Indiana, Notre Dame is playing football with fans permitted in the stands but Purdue and Indiana aren't allowed to play. And here...
