Jr QB Kyle West threw for 140yards 1TD 1int. The main offensive force for Army was Jr RB JP Ross who had a game and career high 99 rushing yards 1TD. He also added 1 receiving TD for 8 yards. His 107all purpose yard 2TD game is the best game Ross has had in his career. On the outside Jr WR Parker Williams led the way with 7rec 61yards. On defense the guys upfront won the night.

CHC was a play or two away from winning this tightly contested contest. Sr QB Anthony Cancellare played stood tough all night as he lit up the Army defense. The senior signal caller ended the night with 331yards 1TD. This was the 2nd 300+ passing game of his career. While the Griffins had things rolling with the pass they couldn’t get much going on the ground. Star RB Lawrence Howard only had 22yards to lead the team. Cancellare was able to punch in 1 rushing TD along with Soph WR Winday Dawson. On the outside Sr WR Kyree Griffin had a career night and one of the greatest games for a receiver in sprint football history. The star senior ended the night with 6rec 189yards. Griffin pulled down tough receptions all night, one in particular where he barely had a step on good coverage but still somehow came down with the ball. Griffin’s 189yard performance is good for the 9th most receiving yards in a game in sprint football history and sets the record for the most receiving yards in a game in CHC history eclipsing standout WR Reggie Robinson’s record of 173yards. On defense Jr DB Amir Jenkins led the way with a game high 11tk. Soph LB Riley Stidham added 5tk 1tfl 1sack. CHC hits the road next week to take on Caldwell.

Stevenson’s 15 tackles tie him for the 7th most in a game in sprint football history and his 5.5tfl’s are good for the 4th most in a game in sprint football history. This performance is one of the best I have ever seen from a defender in my 10 years of being around sprint football. Soph LB Daimen Tarves made an impact everywhere finishing with 8tk 1.5tfl 0.5sack 2pbu. The secondary blanketed the Quakers all night.

Penn was able to capitalize on some Caldwell mistakes, but they did not have enough to come out with the win. Sr QB Jaxson Neild got the first start of his career ending the night with a decent performance leading the team with 144yards 2TD 1int .He will need more help from his offensive line and receivers as the season goes on if the Quakers hope to make some noise. The performance upfront has to concern the Quakers as Neild was sacked 5 times and lead RB JT Goodman only ran for 41yards on 20 touches (2.2 YPC). On the outside Soph TE Andrew Piscatelli had a game high 59yards with 2rec 1TD. Defensively is where the Quakers really made this a game.

On the outside newcomer Sr WR Grant Sterchi had a big debut ending the day with a game high 145yards on 2receptions with 2TD. The O’Connell-Sterchi connection could be a lethal pairing for defenses in the CSFL if the two can build off of this opening week performance. On the defensive side of the ball the Mids never took their foot off the gas. The unit forced 5 turnover which stopped Cornell from building any momentum. Soph LB Connor Miltenberger led the way with 11tk 2.5tfl 0.5sack 1ff. Jr LB Sam Stotler was right behind adding 8tk 2tfl 1ff.

STAC stays home again to welcome Navy.

Molloy gave a more experienced STAC team al they could handle. Jr QB Paulie Drummond threw for 50yards 1TD.
