Danbury's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Jake Okeefe
Thanks in part to Jake OKeefe, Danbury said goodbye to their eight-game losing streak dating back to last season. OKeefe was dynamite on Friday, rushing for 67 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 108 yards and a touchdown on only eight passes.
Danbury's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-4. OKeefe and Danbury will be playing in front of their home fans against Westhill at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 35.20
Brayden Jagoe was a major factor in Trumbull's victory over McMahon on Friday. Jagoe did his part (and then some), making eight total tackles and defending a pass for the 'W'. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making eight total tackles and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
Trumbull now has a winning record of 3-2. Jagoe and Trumbull will be playing in front of their home fans against Greenwich at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Michael D'angelo Dazzles in Greenwich Loss
While Greenwich might've come up empty on Friday, Michael D'Angelo wasn't going down without a fight. D'Angelo turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 110 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries, while also throwing for 137 yards and a touchdown.
With the defeat, Greenwich broke their four-game winning streak and moved their record to 4-1. D'Angelo and Greenwich will square off against Trumbull at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Big Game from Sevilla As Trumbull Won 28-18
The second Trumbull player making an appearance here is Lorenzo Sevilla, and for good reason. He picked up three sacks, made seven total tackles, and defended two passes. He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
This year, Sevilla has averaged 7.5 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after four games last season, he was only averaging 2.25 total tackles per game.
