Turnarounds don’t get much better than the one Archbishop Williams’ is authoring this season.
After a 2-8 season last year, the Bishops have done a complete about-face, still undefeated at 10-0 and off to their first ever trip to the Final Four in the statewide format.
The semifinal appearance comes after a thrilling 28-26 victory over Hanover Friday night. Behind another four-touchdown performance from star eighth grade quarterback Hudson Garrity, the Bishops have put themselves just one win away from their first appearance at Gillette in 20 years.
With a mix of senior leadership and youthful playmakers, Archie’s passed it’s toughest test to date in Hanover.

Off the heels of Archie’s 10th straight win, Garrity, along with seniors Marc Romain, Luke Deftos, Sean Maginnis, and Travis and Tyler Gardner-Harris stopped by WATD Studios to discuss the win.
A date with Foxboro, who has reached back to back Division 5 Super Bowls, looms. We discussed the upcoming challenge, along with the ways in which the Hanover battle prepared the team.
With hardware already secured in the form of a league title and a state semifinalist trophy, Archie’s could be forgiven for being satisfied with the turnaround. Instead, we found a team intent on paying off their season with a state title.
