Saratoga had to kick off their season on the road on Friday, but they showed no ill effects. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 20-18 win over the Prospect Panthers. This was payback for the Falcons, who suffered a 28-6 loss the last time these two teams met.
One reason for the win was Saratoga's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for three sacks. Motekiai Pahulu was especially locked on to Prospect's QB and sacked him twice.
Saratoga will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on El Camino at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. As for Prospect, they will hit the road for the first time this season to take on Lynbrook at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
