Are You Ready For Football?

Northport Tigers kick off fall football Monday.

The new football season begins Monday with the first day of practice.

Every program in the state starts off with optimism and hope that off-season workouts and preseason drills translate into regular season wins and a postseason championship.

How will Northport football fare? The Tigers shocked the world a year ago with victories over Sachem North and eventual Long Island champ Floyd.

Coach Kip Lukralle’s team finished 6-3 with a quarterfinal loss to Sachem East.

The Tigers are seeded fourth in Suffolk Division I. They open the season Sept. 11 at Longwood. Their journey begins Monday.
