Football Preview: Spring-Ford Rams vs. Easton Area Rovers
The Spring-Ford Rams are taking a road trip to challenge the Easton Area Rovers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Easton Area took a loss in their last game and will be looking to turn the tables on Spring-Ford, who comes in off a win.
While Rams fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They enjoyed a cozy 31-14 win over Souderton on Friday. Given the Rams' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 16th, while the Indians are ranked 67th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Spring-Ford to victory, but perhaps none more so than Jamal Lewis, who rushed for 82 yards and three touchdowns. Matt Zollers also helped out by tossing the rock for 252 yards.
Spring-Ford's defense stepped up as well, laying out the QB four times. Taegan Tutrani was especially locked on to Souderton's QB and sacked him twice. Another thorn in Souderton's side was Bryce Roberts, who picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made nine total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Meanwhile, Easton Area was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their sixth straight loss. They fell 21-12 to Central Bucks West.
