FHS Football Reaches Final Four Again
The FHS football team defeated #6 Stoneham High School on Friday, November 14th by a score of 34 - 6 at Alumni Stadium at FHS. The Blue Devils will now make their third consecutive appearance in the Final 4 when they play #7 ranked Bishop Fenwick on either November 21st or 22nd for the chance to play at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro for the Div 6 State Championship.
Under the leadership of Coach Derek Almeida '98 (photo) this year's squad has compiled a record of 8-1, and is ranked #3 in Division 6 statewide.
Averaging more than 40 points per game, this year's team has high hopes of being very competitive in the 2025 playoffs. The Blue Devils have played in the Division 6 Super Bowl Championship game at Gillette Stadium for the past two seasons and took home the trophy in 2023.
Their sole loss this season has been a 47-43 shootout at West Bridgewater H.S., and our well coached, athletic team seems poised to make a strong run once again in the playoffs. FHS has two senior running backs, Grant Darmofal and Aaron Lague, who each have scored more points than any other player in the Southcoast region. Lague has 14 touchdowns while Darmofal has scored 16.
And once again, we are headed towards another exciting show down with the Dartmouth Indians (6-2) on Thanksgiving Day at Dartmouth Stadium.
