BOSTON SORTS: Devin DeMeritt leads Duxbury to 2016 HS Gillette Super Bowl.

His "Redemption Run" is one game away from the perfect season!

Boston, MA, November 20, 2016: Devin DeMeritt's “Redemption Run” is one game away from the perfect season!

There was no one more eager to be back on the football field then #22 Devin DeMeritt and he is one game away from history!

Duxbury football team defeated Beverly, 41-14, in the Division 2 State Semifinals, Nov. 19 at Cawley Field in Lowell.

With the win, the Dragons will take on Central champs Shrewsbury in the Division 2 Super Bowl, Dec. 3 at Gillette Stadium.

“It’s feels good,” said DeMeritt. “We worked all season, and worked really hard all week in practice. It comes down to this. We’ve got 44 minutes to Gillette, 44 minutes and it’s one and done. I think everyone just left it all out there and were really prepared for this game.”
