    City - Poly is the 2nd oldest football rivalry in the country. I believe the Harvard - Princeton rivalry is the oldest.

    That would be Lehigh-Lafayette if you're talking overall uninterrupted longest football rivalry in HS and College.

    Here are the 10 longest high school rivalries per this list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._(100_years%2B)

    1. Norwich Free Academy (CT)-New London High School (CT) (1875)
    2. Philips Academy (MA)-Philips Exeter (NH) (1878)
    3. Wellesley High School (MA)-Needham High School (MA) (1882) (Oldest Public School Rivalry)
    4. Fordham Preparatory School (NY)-Xavier High School (NY) (1883)
    t-5. Milton Academy (MA)-Noble and Greenough School (MA) (1886)
    t-5. St. Mark's School (MA)-Groton School (MA) (1886)
    t-7. Boston Latin (MA)-English High School (MA) (1887) (Oldest Uninterrupted Rivalry)
    t-7. Lawrenceville School (NJ)-The Hill School (PA) (1887)
    t-7. William Penn Charter School (PA)-Germantown Academy (PA) (1887)

    City-Poly is tied for 11th with 4 other schools (started in 1889), but is in the top 5 for uninterrupted rivalries.

    In Maryland the top 4 longest rivalries are:
    1. City-Poly (1889)
    2. McDonogh-Gilman (1914)
    3. Calvert Hall-Loyola (1920)
    4. Fort Hill-Allegany (1936)

    Don't trust Wikipedia. Do independent research before you quote Wikipedia.

    [QUOTE=TheGuru;8180025]If not for the all day City/Poly tailgate and the accompanying huge rivalry game, I'd be at Loyola to cheer on the Dons as they put McDonogh's miserable 2012 season to a pitiful end. It's true that McDonogh has been a thorn in CHC's side but my wish for an Eagles loss is solely based on the possibility that the whirlwind bromance between Greyhound Alum & EaglesInsider will be quashed until it regrettably reignites next August with GA proclaiming Gilman's historic rival, "The Second Best in all the Land."

    Game wasn't even close, I guess that puts Loyola's miserable 2012 season to a pitiful end. I guess you'll have to live with Eagle and GA for at least another week.

    Yes, what a surprising win. I guess the new QB is as good as advertised. Now beat Gilman.
