Local HS Football Rivalries

[rfdu39 89]

Just wondering what everyone thinks who has best local high school football rivalry. In my opinion it is Rye and Harrison (the game is saturday).

[JM15 386]

Somers/JFK both in the same town. Too bad JFK can't come close to beating Somers.

i would say Carmel/Mahopac here in Putnam

[ENG47INE 17]

For Dobbs Ferry this week it will be Albertus Magnus because both teams are (3-0)

[foreman1923 22]

i would agree deff carmel mahopac games have to played during day to prevent fights which still occur every year

Used to love Hen Hud - Peekskill. I don't know if they play each other anymore though! Used to have huge bonfires at Depew Park in Peekskill and at Hen Hud in Montrose, the night before the game...but that ended when someone deemed it to be unsafe!

FYI, when my Dad was a kid, the Jets practiced at Depew Park in Peekskill!

Fox Lane and John Jay

Fox Lane and Greely

Since we moved up a division the fights between the schools have almost disappeared

It is definately Fordham Prep vs Xavier.....oldest rivalry in NYC

When I was going to Fox Lane our biggest game was against Greely, now I don't even know if they play each other anymore.

That was always our homecoming weekend.

It is definitely Fordham Prep vs. Xavier..

The Turkey Bowl is one of my things to do on Thanksgiving

No we dont play Greely anymore......Fox Lane got too big so we moved out of Greely's division.

Homecoming is actually this weekend and we are playing Walter Panas High School

We will see how that turns out....I dont think we have ever played them.

westlake v. valhalla are generally good games, although they are in different divisions this year.

...i remember when i was in high school a rival game was cancelled bc the school got wind that the players planned to bring knives to the games and stick each other when tackling! if that's not the defination of rivals, i don't know what is!!

[MoFire390 118]

Used to love Hen Hud - Peekskill. I don't know if they play each other anymore though! Used to have huge bonfires at Depew Park in Peekskill and at Hen Hud in Montrose, the night before the game...but that ended when someone deemed it to be unsafe!

FYI, when my Dad was a kid, the Jets practiced at Depew Park in Peekskill!

its now Hen Hud-Lakeland. when Peekskill dropped to the class B divison (last year).

In my day - Valhalla vs. Westlake, until we (Valhalla) got too small and moved down a division and didn't play each other anymore. Contrary to what Vacguy said, it was always a friendly rivalry; there were never any knives or threats involved.

[helicopper 1,050]

Now, are we talking about the actual game or the carnage that follows????

Whatever happened to...

Lincoln vs. Roosevelt (Yonkers)

Mt. Vernon vs. New Rochelle

And for Putnam I'd have to agree that Mahopac vs. Carmel is quite the rivalry.

Rye vs. Harrison My prediction: Rye 35 Harrison 0 !!!!!! Go Rye BROOK BOUND!

And then you woke up...

I second that, in what world is Rye gonna win 35 - 0

Keep dreaming
