IRISH WIN INSTANT CLASSIC IN AUSTINTOWN

AUSTINTOWN OH- In a game that was easily a candidate for game of the year. Two powerhouse programs duked it out on Friday night, in what was nothing short of a slug fest.

The Austintown Fitch Falcons and Ursuline Fighting Irish exchanged scores throughout the entirety of the game. Mirroring each other every step of the way in scoring, turnovers, and special teams.

The Falcons utilized a strong balanced attack of passing and rushing down the stretch. With DJ Williams and Tyree Mitchell’s names being called a majority of the second half.

However, The Irish picked a four-leaf clover in DeMarcus McElroy to turn to. With an impressive 4 touchdowns to go along with 359 yards on the ground Friday night. Good enough for 2nd all time in Ursuline history.

As both sides exploded on offense the entire game, two plays from The Irish defense stood out. With both a 2-point conversion stand and a blocked field goal attempt from The Irish, foiling Austintown’s comeback efforts in the final 30 seconds of the game.

The Irish (3-1) travel to Warren to take on The Harding Raiders (1-3) for week 5. As The Falcons(2-1) look to refocus, with another holy matchup versus The Cardinal Mooney Cardinals (0-3) on September 17th.
