Under new head coach Joseph Schotland, the D-S Raiders football team did not open their season as they would have liked. The team lost to Nauset Regional High School 41-7 Friday night in North Eastham.
With Nauset, a Division 2 team and D-S a Division 4 team, Schotland said that the lopsided score did not reflect how his team played.
"I thought our kids played hard," Schotland said. "We were out there hitting well. It was closer how the score indicated."
