The J.P. McCaskey Red Tornado are taking a road trip to take on the Conestoga Valley Buckskins at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
While Red Tornado fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Saturday's season opener. They simply couldn't be stopped on Saturday as they easily beat John Bartram 41-14 on the road. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest victory the Red Tornado have posted since September 1, 2023.
Meanwhile, Conestoga Valley took care of business in their home opener on Friday (and then some). They never let Penn Manor onto the board and left with a 35-0 win. Given the Buckskins' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 116th, while the Comets are ranked 284th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Conestoga Valley can attribute much of their success to Teagan Ruble, who gained 106 total yards and two touchdowns, and Sawyer Esbenshade, who threw for 141 yards and three touchdowns. Jayden Johnson got in on the action too, returning a kick for a touchdown.
J.P. McCaskey was dealt a bruising 35-7 loss at the hands of Conestoga Valley when the teams last played back in September of 2021. Can J.P. McCaskey avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
