After last year’s incredible football season as undefeated Super Bowl champions, the Green Wave varsity football team has big shoes to fill.

The season started off very successfully. Pushing through injuries, the boys of fall have only lost one game (as the Green Wave Gazette publishes).  “We have the potential to make it back to the Super Bowl, but we can’t look past any team that we play,” said senior Vincent Picardi.  Each game is crucial for the Green Wave if they want to earn the success they achieved in the past.

According to senior Steve Manning, another important player on the team, “A lot of “W’s” should be in store for the team this season.” The South Shore League includes top contenders, such as East Bridgewater and Rockland; therefore the team has a lot of hard work and effort to put in to ensure they come out on top.

However several of the team’s crucial players have encountered injuries, leaving the underclassmen to step their game up to help the team. Shawn Donovan, only a sophomore, has been one of the Green Wave’s top scorers so far.

Attendees don’t just include coaches and families. The entire Abington community is coming together to support this year’s team and hopes for another year of continuous victories. Green Wave fans are excited to see what else the Abington High School football team has in store.

We have the potential to make it back to the Super Bowl, but we can’t look past any team that we play.
