Eagle Academy II had a rough outing against Bayside two weeks ago, but a little bit of home cooking seems to have fixed things right up. Everything went Eagle Academy II's way against Grand Street Campus last Saturday as they made off with a 34-12 victory. Not happy with the 13-12 score at halftime, Eagle Academy II made a real splash in the second half.

After a string of three wins, Douglass Academy's good fortune finally ran out. They lost to Eagle Academy III by a decisive 14-33 margin.

Eagle Academy II's win lifted them to 2-2 while Douglass Academy's defeat dropped them down to 3-1. In their win, Eagle Academy II relied heavily on junior Rahmel Hodges, who rushed for 101 yards and 1 touchdown. Douglass Academy will need to find a way to minimize his impact if they want to win.
