  • Charles Curcio.jpg Friday night is still the greatest night of the week

    Of all the many sports that I cover during the year,  no sport requires more physical and mental effort, demanding more attention to detail than the coverage of high school football.
    Football has long been arguably the most covered, most watched high school sport for many years, but with the advent of the internet and video cameras no bigger than a cell phone, everywhere you look people are covering prep football like never before.
