Talking Massachusetts Statewide High School Football Playoffs on Thursday Night

by Jeff Fisher
High School Football America

Join me Thursday night on High School Football America when I talk with former Fitchburg head football coach Ray Consenza about a proposal for a statewide playoff system in Massachusetts.

Consenza, who also served as the president of the Massachusetts High School Football Coaches Association, will discuss the plan that will be put to a vote of the entire Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association membership.

Two years ago, the membership voted 190-114 against a proposal that would have changed the current league structures, plus taken away Thanksgiving Day games, in order to create a statewide playoff system.  The new system will maintain the league structure and not touch the Turkey Day games.

Cosenza, who is Fitchburg's athletic director, retired at the end of the 2011 season with a lifetime record of 194-116-1 with three Super Bowl victories.

Click here to read the proposal on the MHSFCA's website.

The 34th annual Shiners Football Classic will be played Friday night at Gillette Stadium.

The game features 100 of the top high school football players from Eastern Massachusetts divided into North and South teams.  The North squad is coach by Austin Prep's Bill Maradel, who is the winningest Catholic high school football coach in state history.  The South is led by Jon Bartlett of Boston College High School.

The game benefits the Shriners Hospitals for Children, an international pediatric specialty health care system.

MIAA Membership to Vote on Statewide High School Football Playoff System

by Jeff Fisher

A proposal to create a statewide high school football playoff system will probably be voted upon by the entire membership of the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association in October.

Thursday, the MIAA's Board of Directors voted 11-2 to place the plan before all of the schools during a late October meeting.

A date for that meeting will be announced in the near future.

Statewide Playoff Proposal Clears Another Hurdle

by Jeff Fisher

A statewide playoffs system is one step clear to reality after the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association's Tournament Management Committee voted 10-4 in favor of the latest proposal crafted by the Massachusetts State Football Coaches Association.

The proposal now goes to the MIAA's board of directors on June 7th.  At that meeting, the board can do several things including pass it, defeat it or push it to a vote at the MIAA's annual meeting in March of 2013.

If approved, the two-year statewide trial will begin during the 2013 season.
