Larry Fedora on high school football: 'It's something they need'

Posted Aug 15, 2018
Chapel Hill High School announced Monday it will not field a varsity football team this season. Cedar Ridge High School will not have a varsity football team this fall, either. Last fall, East Chapel Hill High School did not field a varsity team. There are only five high schools in Orange County. "I hate it for those young men, because they're missing out on a tremendous opportunity," Larry Fedora said. (WRAL Sports Fan)
