Hundreds of family, friends and community residents, dressed in red, came out to the new turf field at Freeport High School to show their support for the Red Devils with a display of school pride and community togetherness at the annual homecoming.
Prior to the game many of the Freeport school PTAs and school district fundraising groups offered food items, school spirit apparel and crafts to all who attended.
The Freeport High School Navy Junior ROTC led the parade that included the marching band, the homecoming court, and the cheerleader squad from the front of the school out to the field.
The cheerleaders took their place near the end zone and got the crowd on their feet when they placed a huge Freeport banner as the Red Devils ran out on to the field. The Freeport Red Devils Marching Band played our national anthem as the JROTC presented the flag at the 50 yard line.
The Red Devils were defeated by Syosset by a narrow 16-13 final score.
