98.5 The Sports Hub hosts Tony Massarotti and Michael Felger came to Watertown to see if they could do better than the Baltimore Ravens kicker.
Having criticized Baltimore Ravens kicker Billy Cundiff for shanking the game-tying 32-yard field goal against the Patriots, sports radio hosts Michael Felger and Tony Massarotti tested their kicking skills at Watertown’s Victory Field Tuesday. Placing the ball at the 22-yard line (with the 10 yard end zone making a total of 32) of Watertown’s new artificial turf, the hosts from 98.5 FM The Sports Hub gave it a whirl – and found it was not so easy. After their crew missed on their three attempts, Felger stepped up and hit two-of-three and Mazz missed all three. “It’s hard – legit,” Felger said. “But (Cundiff) should have made it.” Massarotti, who lived in the East End of Watertown until age 13, said he had kicked some field goals growing…

The renovation of Victory Field will not be completed in time for the beginning of the Raiders' football season.
Watertown High School’s football schedule is out and the Raiders will host the first two games, however, with Victory Field being renovated, the games will be played at Woburn High School.

Currently the location of that game is listed as “to be announced.” The final to home games – On Nov. 11 against Wakefield and the Thanksgiving game against …
