WOOD-RIDGE – The Wood-Ridge football team continues to add to its resume over the last few years as one of the most improved programs in Bergen County.
“We’re growing,” said Wood-Ridge head coach Charlie Trentacosti. “We played with teams that we haven’t in the past.”
But the growth on the program has not been just been in wins, but also stretched out to the rest of the school and the borough. “The community has really grown with the team and the crowds have continued to grow.”

With a 5-4 record to go with the 5-5 mark in 2015, the Blue Devils have won more games in the two seasons compared to the 2010-14 seasons.
