Football season is quickly approaching and its time to take a look at area teams' schedules. Check out who Murdock will play this year.
The fall season is quickly appraoching and Gardner-area teams begin to prepare for another competitive season.
Football teams saw their fair share of success last season and will gear up for more highlight-worthy moments.
We've taken a look at five of the area schools' schedules and now its time for the last: Murdock.
Murdock is coming off back-to-back seasons earning zero wins. The young and inexperienced program has struggled but with the work of various coaches and improvements with a strength and conditioning program, the Blue Devils are optimistic coming into 2025.
This year, track and field coach and previous middle school football coach Kyle Duplease is taking over the varsity program.
The Blue Devils will play a similar schedule as last year with only one new matchup: Lunenburg.
