🚨🚨COLLEGE COACHES, 10+ players have gone off to D3-D1 programs since 2020-2021, 16+ since 2018. Direct representation of the type of kids we have. The standard will remain the standard. We have another highly touted senior class that will be highlighted over the next few days.
Patriots Standout Rookie Cornerback
@chrisgonzo28
speaking with our team prior to Saturdays Semifinal game. Appreciate you taking the time to come by. True professional & we were honored to have you!
Congratulations to Coach Matt Landolfi on being named The Boston Globe Coach Of The Year. A perfect season capped with a State Championship,
@DuxHSFootball
has a great program and we can’t wait to host the 2nd annual matchup of the Landolfi Bowl in September!
The
#hanoverfootballhuddleclub
is absolutely crushed to report the sudden and tragic loss of our dear friend and assistant coach, Mark Flaherty. He loved the game. He loved the kids.
To the rest of our seniors which their are too many to mention. Thank you. You’ll never forget this run you guys made.
Thank you to the town of Hanover for the support last night. You guys were great all season.
Go Hawks🦅
Last night Senior QB Ben Scalzi Broke the Hanover High School Football Single Season Passing Touchdown Record (33)
Record previously held by
@Mikelandolfi2
(32 in his junior season)
At the end of the day these records mean very little to be compared to winning. Congrats Ben!
A few good men, all by way of Hanover, Mass. Matt is committed to Bates College, Michael and Sam have gained interest from all over the northeast & Marky is likely the nations best OT recruit in 2026. Boasting offers from Wisco, MSU, Michigan, Penn State, South Carolina & more.
Congrats to
@_johnregan_
on choosing
@HobartFootball
for the next chapter in his football career.
John played through the State Title with a torn meniscus & gave his absolute ALL to the program. Good luck in the Big 🍎.
Terrific win yesterday to advance to our first Super Bowl since 2016. Proud of the team for battling adversity and finding a way to win over a very good Danvers team. Thanksgiving next week and then we will take on Foxboro @ Gillette Stadium. Time/Date: TBD.
@benscalzi9
with 323 Passing Yards and 6 Passing TDs & this absolutely ridiculous hurdle that was ruled no TD. Sooner people realize Ben is a D1 talent the better.
A terrific & very successful season comes to a disappointing end. Foxboro wins 42-21. This group accomplished a lot and gave their all to this program.
Congratulations to Senior WR Dylan Rice for deciding to continue his football career at
@UnionCollegeFB
Dylan totaled 40 Receptions for for 544 yards and 7 Touchdowns despite missing 3 games. Best of luck Dylan!
Excelent hires. The Landolfis eat, breathe & sleep football. Mark is the PERFECT hire & Chris has already made his mark as a coach in MA. They will be a successful program.
We are grateful for Mark & Chris’s dedication and hard work towards the Hanover Football Program.
We are very excited to welcome our new Head Freshmen Football Coach
@jamesb742
James was a 3 year starter and a Captain while at Hanover. He played College Football at Pitzer College in California. We are lucky to welcome James back! Season is coming!!!
Great to be back on the field wrapping up day 3 with a few Gatorade Practice Players of the Day presented by none other than “Walshie”
Day 1: John Regan
Day 2: Seabass Brown
Day 3: Vinny Mancini (Defense)
Very excited to announce our Captains for the 2023 Season. QB Ben Scalzi, LT John Regan, RB Vinny Mancini, ATH John McDonald & WR Mehki Bryan. These guys all were key pieces to our success last season and will be great leaders on and off the field for us.

Five Landolfis were on the field: Mark (Hanover asst.), Matt (Dux head), Madison (Dux cheerleader), Chris (Hanover head), Brian (referee).
Matt: "I definitely love my brothers. I’m glad we got the win. I’m sure it’ll get heated at some point, but maybe not until Thanksgiving."
HC Jason Swepson of

@JohnMcd40091822
that hasn’t already been said.
A terrific kid who’s never complained a day in his life. Started both ways+kicked FGs& PATs since his Soph year. We will be absolutely blessed if we have a kid like “Johnny Mac” again. No days off for JMac.
A special Happy Birthday shoutout to our assistant coach and Offensive Coordinator
@TylerCoady2
In his first season as OC our offense averaged a resounding 34.4 PPG. Smashing Hanover HS Records for Total Points in a season and Per Game.
Mike Landolfi Hanover 23’ Lawrence Acad 24’ starts off his summer with his first Division 1 offer from UMASS. Drawn interest from others such as Army Lehigh, Rhode Island, Holy Cross, Georgetown, Harvard, Yale & Brown. Just the Beginning!

📆 Friday. 9/15/2023
⏰7:00 p.m
For the first time in over 10 years Hanover & Hingham will take the field against each-other. Come out and support what should be a terrific game.
Landolfi went 68-36 over his 10 seasons in charge. His 2016 team finished 12-0 and won the Div. 3 state championship, and the Hawks have been flying high the last two seasons -- 8-3 in 2021, 9-3 in 2022 with a final four appearance.
Good luck Coach Lando!
Have to give quick shoutout to Senior Captain RB/LB,
@VinnyMancini27
. Vinny simply was not going to let us lose today. 15 Tackles, 120 all purpose yards, and the game winning tackle on 4th and 1. Warriors performance.
Cant forget about
@_johnregan_
, anchored our OL+DL.
Best football is ahead of him & really took a step in the right path this year. We are gonna miss ya reags
50 yard TD Passes aren’t possible without excellent protection up front. On the first play of the 2h after a big 3 and out, The most explosive duo in the state strike again.
After 150 All Purpose Yards, 11 Catches, 3 TDs, 6/6 on XPs While excelling in every snap at safety for his third consecutive season.
@JohnMcd40091822

Congrats to
@connerty_matt
on choosing
@Salve_Football
. Matt had a terrific 2 years for our team at corner and we can’t wait to see what he can do at the next level!
It was a very busy couple weeks for schools visiting our kids. We would like to thank the following programs. Stonehill, Union, Franklin & Marshall, RPI, Hobart, Endicott, Assumption, Mass Maratime, Norwich, Husson and WPI.
Hanover wins 37-15. Defense led with 7 sacks, a scoop and score TD by
@MehkiBryan
, a pick 6 from
@errico_brandon
& an all around dominant performance from all 11. Led on offense by
@benscalzi9
with 3 passing TDs.
No doubt
@VinnyMancini27
gave everything in his tank tonight.
Played his heart out while banged up the last 2 games and it was evident. Could have rolled over but is a winner+leader. Will go very far in life.
Congratulations to our own Robert Toner who will be terrorizing quarterbacks next year as a member of the Denison University Big Red. We’re all proud of you Robert – Good Luck.

The next time you are deep into the season, when it’s late October and the air is cool and your body aches from the countless hits you’ve taken, look around and remember how lucky you are.
Congrats
@DavidQuinlan_2

Terrific Article. Ask anyone about
@DavidQuinlan_2
you will hear all of the same. Great leader, Great teammate, Great person. He is going to be successful with whatever he chooses to do in life. We were truly lucky to have him in the program for 4 years.
Not a debate, Ben is the most electrifying QB to wear the Blue & Gold. Just under 6,000 Passing Yards & 70 Passing TDs in 2 seasons. Made the switch from starting WR&LB. They don’t make them like
@benscalzi9
. We are gonna miss you kid.
