CRESTVIEW MAKES IT BACK TO BACK IN MVAC

COLUMBIANA OH- Crestview has been in three different leagues since 2016, and they’ve dominated every single one of them.

Postgame Interview With Lucy Montgomery:

LABRAE CANT HOLD UP AGAINST G MEN

GARRETTSVILLE OH- Garfield was given the opportunity to send an early message to the MVAC facing undefeated LaBrae. The message was emphatically sent as the G-Men wore the Vikings down on their way to a 35-14 win.

Anthony Demma continued to rumble his way through opposing defenses. He carried the ball 23 times and gained 191 yards.

Garfield’s defense came up big in the moments that really mattered. After the Vikings ran a kick 65 yards to the house to close out the first half, the G-Men defense didn’t let them score again. It wasn’t for a lack of opportunities though, Garfield turned the ball over on their first two possessions of the second half. But the Garfield defense responded forcing a turnover on downs both times the Vikings got the ball.

Garfield continues their debut tour through the MVAC in Week 5 hosting Newton Falls. LaBrae will need to bounce back as they will face off with Champion on Friday.

GARFIELD PROVES TOO MUCH FOR EAGLES

WARREN OH- Garfield has had Warren JFK’s number for a couple of years now, and that would not change on Friday night. Garfield used a steady dose of Anthony Demma to outscore JFK 28-14.

Demma would end up scoring three touchdowns for the G-Men on 137 yards rushing including a 57 yard burst to erase any doubt late in the game.

JFK’s offense finally found a rhythm in the fourth quarter as Caleb Hadley and Antwan Brown both found the endzone in the final frame. Garfield answered both scores to stay ahead.

Garfield head coach Mike Moser earned his 55th win to become the winningest coach in the program.

Garfield remains undefeated and will host LaBrae next week. JFK hits the road traveling to Conneaut.
