JFK HEADING BACK TO STATE

WARREN OH- The JFK Eagles are making their second trip to the state playoffs in a row! The Eagles had to fight and claw their way through regionals though. It took a narrow 20-13 win in overtime over a scrappy Dalton team that had already upset Lucas to get to this round. Antwan Brown’s interception at the goaline in overtime sealed the win.

Brown had a monster day on the ground for the Eagles. After being held quiet in the first half, he scored both his team’s second half touchdowns on 244 total yards of rushing. Caleb Hadley scored what would end up being the game winning touchdown in overtime from one yard out. The Eagles took just four plays to punch it in.

JFK advances to the state semifinals where they will match up with Newark Catholic. That game will be played at Marlington High School at 7:00 on Saturday.
