T he 2023 edition of the Everett High School football team (6-0 in the GBL, 9-2 overall) is probably the envy of the offensively challenged New England Patriots, and they didn’t even make the Division 1 playoffs under the power rankings system of the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA). In 11 games, the Crimson Tide accounted for 431 points, including 56 against visiting St. Mary’s of Lynn on Thanksgiving Eve to wrap up coach Justin Flores’ first year at the helm in convincing fashion over the Catholic Central League school, 56-28.

Domenic Papa (46) and Joao Barreiros (19) took down Spartan running back Rowan Merryman (10) in the Thanksgiving game.
