PLAYERS. SO THEY WANT TO TAKE THIS IN AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. WELL I'LL PUT A WORD IN WITH THE WEATHER DEPARTMENT. MAYBE WE CAN GET THIS FOR A FEW MORE WEEKS AT LEAST. THIS IS PERFECT. THIS IS PERFECT. BUT MIKE, AS WE DO EVERY YEAR, WE GOT TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT LAST YEAR'S DEFENDING CHAMPIONS. LET'S START IN THE D-1 LEVEL. WE TALK ABOUT THE TEAM PLAYING RIGHT NOW AGAINST SALEM. THE BEDFORD BULLDOGS. NOW THE BEDFORD PROGRAM HAS PROVEN TO BE THE STANDARD IN THE STATE'S TOP DIVISION. THE BULLDOGS HAVE WON TWO STRAIGHT STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS. THIS RUN WAS LED BY A GREAT SENIOR CLASS. IT WAS A BIG CLASS TOO. SO NOW BEDFORD NEEDS NEW PLAYERS TO STEP UP THE BULLDOGS RETURN JUST TWO STARTERS ON DEFENSE AND FIVE ON OFFENSE. I MEAN, ANYTIME YOU START A NEW SEASON, IT'S REALLY EXCITING. SO WE'VE HAD GREAT ENERGY. KIDS ARE REALLY EXCITED. EVERY TEAM HAS A LITTLE BIT OF A DIFFERENT FLAVOR. SO I THINK THAT THIS GROUP IS REALLY COMING TOGETHER QUICKLY. WE'RE EXCITED. THERE'S DEFINITELY A LOT OF GUYS BATTLING FOR PLAYING TIME AND NEW POSITIONS. IT'S A REALLY EXCITING TIME. WE LOST A LOT OF SENIORS LAST YEAR, BUT WE'RE STARTING OVER. WE'RE STARTING WITH NEW PEOPLE AND WE'RE GOING TO GET NEW PEOPLE ON THE FIELD, SO IT'S JUST GOING TO TAKE HARD WORK, KEEP THE ENERGY AT PRACTICE AND I KNOW WE CAN GET THERE. I MEAN, WE'RE LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. THE ENERGY IS DEFINITELY THERE FOR THE TEAM THIS SEASON. AND I MEAN EVERYONE'S HERE TO BRING IT. WE KNOW WE HAVE A TARGET ON OUR BACKS. ALL RIGHT. TWO DIVISION TWO. NO PROGRAM IN NEW HAMPSHIRE HAS BEEN MORE DOMINANT THAN THE PELHAM PYTHONS. 41 STRAIGHT WINS, FOUR STRAIGHT STATE TITLES. PELHAM HAS THE FOURTH LONGEST WIN STREAK IN THE COUNTRY. IT'S BEEN FIVE YEARS SINCE THESE GUYS LOST A GAME THAT IS INSANE. THERE'S A CHANGE IN COACH THIS SEASON. JOHN CRISTIANI SUCCEEDS TOM BABIN. CRISTIANI HAS DECADES OF COACHING EXPERIENCE ON THE HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE LEVELS, AND SAYS HE'S EXCITED TO LEAD THIS VERY SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM, WHICH WILL TRY TO WIN ITS FIFTH STRAIGHT TITLE. CERTAINLY, THERE'S A TRADITION HERE AND LIKE I TELL THEM, TRADITION NEVER GRADUATES. HOPEFULLY I DON'T SCREW IT UP. THE TEAM'S LOOKING GOOD. WE GOT SOME KEY PLAYERS BACK WHO HAVEN'T PLAYED IN A COUPLE OF YEARS, SO LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. IT'S GOING TO TAKE A LOT OF HARD WORK AND DEDICATION, BUT WE'RE GOING TO WORK HARD AND WE'RE GOING TO GET IT DONE AGAIN. THIS YEAR. ALL RIGHT, THE D3 REIGNING CHAMPS ARE MOVING UP A DIVISION AFTER LOSING IN THE TITLE GAME IN 2021 AND 2022 LAST YEAR. THE TRINITY PIONEERS WON THAT STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. NOW THEY FACE A NEW CHALLENGE MOVING INTO DIVISION TWO THIS YEAR WILL BE YOUNGER. WE'RE PRETTY HEAVILY RELIANT UPON A JUNIOR CLASS THIS YEAR, BUT WE HAVE A LOT OF TALENT IN THAT JUNIOR CLASS. IT REMINDS ME A LITTLE BIT OF OUR TEAM A FEW YEARS AGO STEPPING UP A DIVISION. IT'S A BIG CHALLENGE, BUT THE TEAMS REALLY COME TOGETHER. WE'VE BEEN COMING TOGETHER, WORKING HARD. IN THE OFF SEASON SEVEN'S WEIGHT ROOM. WE'RE NOT PUTTING ON OUR PUTTING OUR GOOD TIME AND YOU KNOW, I THINK WE'RE LOOKING GOOD FOR A FOR A COMEBACK TO THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP THIS YEAR. WE'RE LOOKING REALLY STRONG. AND I THINK THIS IS A TEAM THAT WANTS TO WIN. SO I THINK WE'LL EXCEL AT THAT. PEOPLE DID NOT MISS A CHANCE TO GET AFTER WINNING THREE STRAIGHT TITLES AT THE D4 LEVEL, SOMERSWORTH IS MOVING UP TO DIVISION THREE. HEAD COACH JEREMY LAMBERT SAYS HIS GROUP IS YOUNG, WITH FRESHMEN MAKING ABOUT MAKING UP ABOUT HALF THE TEAM. BUT THEY'RE EMBRACING THIS NEW CHALLENGE. IT'S INCREDIBLY EXCITING. WHAT I LOVE IS THAT I'M STARTING TO PLAY TEAMS AGAIN THAT WE HAD RIVALRIES WITH WHEN I PLAYED FOOTBALL OR EVEN A FEW YEARS WHEN I FIRST STARTED COACHING. EARLIER IN 2008, TIME FRAME. SO GETTING TO REKINDLE THAT WITH LACONIA AND CAMPBELL AND MONADNOCK TEAMS LIKE THAT PLAYING SANBORN EPPING AGAIN, THAT WE PLAYED FOR A FEW YEARS IN DIVISION FOUR AND THEY MOVED UP. SO IT'S REALLY COO
