For three young boys the start of football season cannot come too soon. Brandon Petrick, 12, looks out from the top step of their porch, his cousin Matt Myers, 12, stands a few steps down, while Petrick’s brother Bradley Hopkins, 9, stands on the sidewalk and tosses a ball with a neighborhood friend. The older boys’ eyes dart from one direction to the other as they watch each passing car hoping to spot their ride to the first scrimmage of the year. For two of the boys, this is their first year playing for the Hanover Huskies.
