Mount Desert Island High School football

Mount Desert Island plays high school football in Maine.

Coming soon

Maine is coming to Hometown Line

You’re in the right place, and the whole site is open to you. We only show scores a state’s association lets us read and credit, and Maine’s aren’t readable yet. Here’s how Mount Desert Island gets on, and how to play in the meantime.

Play this Friday anyway

Every game on the board is open to you, in any state. Call the week’s biggest games, or follow a state next door.

Getting Mount Desert Island on the site

Maine isn’t published yet. The vendor that runs the MPA's site turns visitors from outside the area away.

In the meantime, a coach, athletic director or team manager can put a school’s season on the site through the Team Desk, and the letter below still asks them to publish.

Ask them

Write to Maine Principals' Association or your school's athletic director. Address it to the association’s office or your athletic director — the contact page on their site has it.

Subject: Schedules and scores for Maine high-school football

Dear Maine Principals' Association,

I am a fan of Mount Desert Island. I follow the season on Hometown Line (hometownline.com), a free game of skill and prediction for high-school football. There is no money in it: readers predict results and are scored on how well they read the games.

Maine is not on the site yet because the schedules and scores are published in a way that does not allow another site to read them. I am writing to ask that Maine Principals' Association allow Hometown Line to read the schedules and scores it already publishes, or publish them as a feed. The site reads only what it is allowed to, identifies itself, and credits Maine Principals' Association on every game.

Thank you for considering it.

Yours sincerely,
A supporter of Mount Desert Island

The programme

Notable alumni: 1 in all, 0 of them in football; Counted from the school’s own article, which lists people notable enough to have been written up. A programme with none has not produced none.

Everything above comes from Mount Desert Island’s own article — except the few lines that name a different one — and is real. Hometown Line also runs a scoring model over Maine high school football. Every prediction it makes is the model’s own. Where Maine publishes a schedule the site may read, the games ahead are that schedule; where it does not, the fixtures ahead are generated so the model has something to predict. A result is shown only where its source is named.
