Game recap

Douglass (Upper Marlboro, Md.) came into Saturday's contest ranked No. 9 in Maryland, but was stunned by Gwynn Park (Brandywine, Md.), 13-0. Gwynn Park was ranked at No. 62 in the MaxPreps Freeman Rankings for Maryland coming into the week.

The lead that the Yellowjackets took on a touchdown run with less than a minute remaining in the second quarter stood up for the duration of the game, as neither team managed to score in the second half.

Gwynn Park got revenge for last year's 14-6 loss to the Eagles with the victory.

The victory was a step in the right direction for GP, which was coming off a 8-6 defeat at the hands of Friendly in its previous game. The defeat comes as a step back for Douglass, which notched a 26-0 victory over Largo in its previous outing. The loss snapped Douglass' 2-game winning streak.

Gwynn Park (2-1) goes up against Crossland in a Prince George's County 3A/2A/1A game matchup next week, while Douglass (2-1) locks horns with Potomac also in a Prince George's County 3A/2A/1A game.
