Nick Garzarella Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Spring-Ford got the W thanks in part to Nick Garzarella playing the best football he has all season. Garzarella made seven total tackles (2.0 for loss) and snagged an interception.
On the season, Garzarella has averaged 5.5 total tackles per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 3.63 total tackles per game.

Logan Oakes Turns in Another Game with at Least Five Total Tackles
Sadly, Logan Oakes posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Boyertown over Spring-Ford on Friday. Oakes wasn't messing around, making five total tackles (1.5 for loss) and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception which he returned one-yard for a touchdown. The game was his sixth straight with five or more total tackles dating back to last season.
Boyertown is on an eight-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 0-8. Oakes will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Norristown on Friday.
