Baton Rouge, LA - The high school football season kicks off Friday, September 1 and the WBRZ Sports 2 team previews 2017 in our half-hour preseason special.

High school football is nearly upon us, the jamborees start this weekend and the real deal kicks off just over a week from now.

With so many state titles up for grabs, there's a great chance that our area teams will be back in the dome competing for trophies.

Baton Rouge and the surrounding areas have really stepped up in the select divisions, but can those non-select teams step up their game and get there too?

Watch the video above to see the 30-minute Friday Night Blitz preseason special.

ASCENSION - Dutchtown High School has announced the hiring of Guy Mistretta as the new head football coach and athletic director.

According to school officials, Mistretta will be the second coach in the history of the Griffins' program after Benny Saia announced his retirement last month. Mistretta will be introduced at the Ascension Parish School Board meeting on April 18.

School officials say Mistretta will transition from his current position to Ascension Parish as soon as possible.

Mistretta has 26 years of coaching experience including 13 years as a head football coach and 13 years as a head wrestling coach. As a football coach, he compiled an 116-44 overall record with 13 playoff appearances, five district championships, and two state championships. He also led his wrestling teams to six state championships and three state runner-up titles.

"Coach Mistretta's accomplishments speak for themselves, and we are fortunate to welcome him into the Griffin family," Dutchtown High School Principal Carli Francois said.

Mistretta said that he is excited and honored to hold the position.

"Both Dutchtown High School and the community have outstanding reputations. As excited as I am about this opportunity, I am also humbled to be following in Coach Benny Saia's footsteps," Mistretta said.

Mistretta coached at Redemptorist High School from 1991 until 2010, The Dunham School from 2011 until 2013, and Livonia High School since 2014.

He earned a bachelor's degree from Southeastern Louisiana University and has taught physical education, environmental science, physical science and Louisiana history.
