On Friday October 26 the Bishop Feehan Shamrocks won a great football game against cross-town rival Attleboro. Statistically the game was very even. In first downs BF (17) AHS (14), in total yardage BF (250) AHS 248), in rushing BF (212) AHS (181), in passing BF (53) AHS (81), these stats were indicative of the 15-14 score that the two rivals played to. The key play came when Feehan was able to stop, by just a few inches; a two-point conversion attempt by Attleboro went for the win with just 3 minutes left. Senior Quarterback Mike McGowan (6-10, 53 yards) threw to tight end Matt Linehan for an 8-yard touchdown, after which McGowan ran in the conversion out of an unusual formation for an 8-0 lead with 1:35 left in the opening quarter. The next scoring drive saw the Shamrocks starting on their own 7, however Senior Nick Schwieger was able to lead them out of danger by carrying the ball seven times for 56 yards. Nick Linehan added a pair of first-down catches, then Nick Schwieger was stopped just short of the goal on an 11-yard run, and Mike McGowan was able to cap the 11-play, 93-yard march with 1-yard keeper. Boulter's kick made it 15-8 with 9:51 to play. The Shamrocks next play Durfee in a non-league game on Friday night.
On Saturday October 20th the Varsity Football team spoiled the Spartans of Bishop Stang's Homecoming festivities with a 25-7 victory. Senior quarterback Mike McGowan threw for a pair of touchdowns, his first of the season, to lead the way for the Shamrocks. In addition to his throwing arm (5-of-8 passing for 81 yards), his legs ran eight times for 28 yards. Senior running back Nick Schwieger also added a TD while piling up 136 yards on 23 carries. After trailing 7-0 after Stang's opening touchdown drive, McGowan would hook up with junior wide receiver Matt Boulter for the Shamrocks first score, Boulter would add the PAT to tie the score. Boulter would then add a field goal with just a few clicks left on the clock before halftime. The score remained 10-7 until 10:23 remaining in the fourth quarter when Nick Schwieger scored on a 6 yard run. At a critical point in the game, the mighty Shamrocks stoped Stang cold on a great goal line stand and were then able to drive the ball the length of the field and score on a TD pass from McGowan to senior tight end Nick Linehan securing the 25-7 victory.
Saturday September 29: The J.V. Football team defeated LaSalle by a score of 21-7. Coach Deja, had high praise for the sub-varsity team. With LaSalle packing in the defense and daring the Shamrocks to pass, Pass they did. Tommy Romero had 3 more TD passes. This time he hooked up with freshman Nate Robetaille on one score and added two more TD passes to Sophomore Joe Knaub. The J.Voes go on Saturday v. a very strong Mansfield team. Go Shamrocks.
Monday September 24: J.V. Football team defeat the Hingham Harbormen 27-21.
Dan Effler, twin brother of injured Tom Effler had a great game on defense. He was involved in many tackles but it was his two interceptions, one returned for a TD, that lead the Shamrocks to their victory. Also having a great game was the combination of Tom Romero to Mike Albert, who hooked up for an 82 yard TD reception along with a 50 yard reception that brought the Shamrocks down to the 1 yard line, where Kevin Boland bowled his way in for a TD. Tom and Mike would hook up also on a 25 yard strike to pay dirt. Good job J.V.'s.
Friday September 21: The Shamrocks had a great game tonight. Quarterback Mike McGowan rushed for 166 yards and four TD's. Senior Captain Nick Schwieger also had a great game rushing for 70 yards and an interception in the 4th to help secure the victory. Final score Feehan 28, Hingham 14.
Our prayers go out to Mynor Chacon and Tom Effler, who were both injured in Friday night's action. According to Tom's father as of Saturday morning, Tom was doing fine, suffered a severe concussion and was at home resting.

"This is something we started thingking about at the beginning of the season. We knew we had some talented players but we didn't know how things would play out," said coach Pariseau." The victory over Coyle and Cassidy 6-0-2 in the league gave the Shamrocks a share of the League title with Somerset. Junior Dan Galvin set up the firlst goal at 7:42 getting Kyle Morrissey the ball as he put it in the corner for a 1-0 lead. Corey Cassarella scored from Drew Rowles to go up 2-0.

The Galvin brother's combined for 3/5 of the Feehan output. "We have won 3 or 4 games in a row, and the team has been playing real well lately" said Dan Galvin. Justin Barrett made it 4-0 with a penalty kick, after a take down penalty in the box. Tony Cichetti scored the 5th goal off an assist from Neal Johnson.

The deficit did not last long as three shamrocks scored in succession. Mike Doherty, Kyle Morrissy and Andrew Rowles quickly made the score much more palatable. The one questionable event was when Paul Galvin was issued a red card. With less than two minutes left to the game, Paul was flashed the red card for a delay of game. Matt Sears had another stellar night in goal. With at least 8 saves, Matt has been a very pleasant replacement for All League goalie Kevin Joyce.
The boys J.V. fought to a 2-2 tie against Attleboro. Liam Doherty and Todd Lunter each had a goal for the Shamrocks.
