Coach Mike Stellato’s Chelsea High football team will face off against Matignon High School on Thanksgiving morning, with the game scheduled for a 10:00 kickoff at Dilboy Field in Somerville. Football takes center stage as the holiday’s main event.
This season has been a strong one for the Red Devils, who have posted a 5-5 record that earned them a playoff spot under the MIAA’s new football post-season format. Should they prevail on Turkey Day, Stellato and his squad will finish the 2013 campaign with a winning record.
We encourage Red Devil supporters to make the journey to Somerville and cheer on the Red & Black. Despite forecasts calling for rough weather conditions on the holiday, that’s part of what makes the day special—and for the athletes competing, it promises to be an unforgettable moment, since Thanksgiving football is what high school players dream about.
Let’s go Chelsea—beat Matignon!
