Varsity Football stood strong against Harrison on Friday night, rolling to a 42-13 victory over the visiting Raiders.
Offensively, the Shamrocks jumped out to a 35-0 lead by halftime, capitalizing on several extra early possessions. Frank Grimes shredded the Raider defense behind the stellar blocking of the Rock O-line. The Westfield ground attack was unstoppable all night.
The Rock defense generated 6 turnovers by halftime. Keyonte Crawford destroyed the Raider front five, delivering a performance that Harrison’s QB will have nightmares about for weeks to come. The big play of the night came from Josh Beer’s scoop and score of one of the many forced fumbles. Turner Edwards added consistent play to a defense that remained impermeable until very late in the game.
Shamrock Special Teams contributed to the victory as well, led by Wes Gagnon and the consistent play of Luke Peters. Field position often favored Westfield, and Harrison couldn’t get anything going in this phase of the game, either.
Special mention should be given to Colin White, Jacob Eccles, Noah Smith, and Sam Trompen. These Rocks made significant contributions in preparing the team for the Friday contest. They stood strong throughout the week, providing the best possible look for their fellow teammates.
Resolve to see Rocks Football next Friday, when Westfield will travel to face the Avon Orioles. Kickoff is at 7pm.
