Nothing like a season-opener pitting two of the top three seeds in Suffolk Division I against each other. And that’s how we open this division in the 2025 high school football season, with the National Football Foundation Kickoff Classic. It’s a fantastic matchup where No. 3 Longwood travels to play at No. 2 Ward Melville.

Read more on this matchup and others in week 1 at the link in our bio.
