Freshman Football debut
Yesterday, under beautiful blue September skies, the Red Raider’s freshmen team faced their first opponents, the Nashua Panthers. The game was fraught with numerous interceptions, fumbles, and tackles on both sides, as might be expected from the novice teams. As seasoned spectators noted, “That’s freshmen football.” Dressed in my favorite purple color (as usual), I was horrified when I got to the game and realized purple was the Nashua team’s color. Thankfully, math teacher and equipment manager, Chuck Bolianities, brought me a Lowell hat to wear so there would be no question about my loyalties. Even though the Red Raiders didn’t win: final score Panthers 27, Red Raiders 8, our team played a great game to launch their first season.
