The Matchup: An Early Test

The game will be held at Cape Elizabeth High School’s Hannaford Field at 11:00 AM. A key factor in this contest is the disparity in rankings before the season even begins. Cape Elizabeth holds a significant edge, ranked 15th in Maine and 1st in its class, with a national ranking of 6,820. Mount View, on the other hand, is currently unranked.

The results of these games could provide a valuable benchmark for how the two teams compare in terms of performance. While head-to-head records and common opponent records are currently 0-0, the outcomes of these future games will be telling.
