SALEM TAKES MOMENTUM INTO RIVALRY WEEK
ALLIANCE OH- Looking to bounce back after their 3rd loss of the season the week prior, the Salem Quakers made quick work of 1-7 Marlington on the road last night 41-7.
The Quakers would roll out 21 unanswered 1st quarter points on touchdowns to Cletis Monroy (one rush, one receiving) and the other on a Jackson Johnson 30 yard scamper, and would never look back. They would tack on another touchdown, this time from the arm of Ross Davidson into the hands of Jackson Johnson, as well as two Hayden Tomidajewicz field goals to take a 34-7 lead into the intermission.
Salem would score one more time, pushing them over the 30 point plateau, allowing for a running clock. This time it would be Jackson Johnson connecting with Ross Davidson for a 9 yard score. That would be the only score from either team in the second half, as Salem would salt the game away and come away victorious.
Salem (6-3) now has a date with West Branch on Saturday night, look king to avenge last year’s 43-42 loss in an instant classic at Sebo Stadium. Both teams have secured a playoff spot but, with a victory, would secure a home game in week one of the playoffs.
