Jefferson gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. Their defense stepped up to hand the Marist War Eagles a 19-0 shutout. For the Dragons, this counts as revenge for the 23-7 victory the War Eagles walked away with the last time they faced one another back in August of 2024.
