Suggested Video

The Webster Thomas Titans will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on the Irondequoit Eagles at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Webster Thomas is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after opening their season on the road. They fell 21-13 to Penfield on Saturday. The Titans' loss continues a trend for the squad, making it seven in a row dating back to last season.

Meanwhile, Irondequoit gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. They blew past Eastridge 43-0 at home. Given the Eagles' advantage in MaxPreps' New York football rankings (they are ranked 117th, while the Lancers are ranked 388th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Irondequoit had a senior duo take command as Cameron Freeman rushed for 112 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries and Taiden Makubire rushed for 30 yards and a touchdown. Freeman got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run and that went for an incredible 71 yards. The team also got some help courtesy of Myles Wynn, who rushed for 91 yards on only eight carries.

Webster Thomas ended up a good deal behind Irondequoit in their previous meeting back in October of 2023, losing 24-6. Will Webster Thomas have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other football content.
