Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Chaminade). They blew past the Holy Trinity Titans 45-0 at home on Saturday. Given the Flyers' advantage in MaxPreps' New York football rankings (they are ranked 11th, while the Titans are ranked 199th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Chaminade had a senior duo take command as Peter Gerbasi rushed for 124 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries and Tim Murphy rushed for 57 yards and three touchdowns. That's the most rushing yards Murphy has posted since back in October of 2023. Peter Cwietniewicz was another key player, rushing for 67 yards and a touchdown.
Chaminade's defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged two passes before it was all said and done. The picks came courtesy of Anthony Trapani and Tristan Lombardo. Trapani is also crushing it when it comes to total tackles: he's made at least five every time he's taken the field this season.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Chaminade was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 297 rushing yards. That's the most rushing yards they've managed all season.
Chaminade's win ended a six-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 4-1. As for Holy Trinity, they are on a six-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-5.
Chaminade will host Archbishop Stepinac at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday. Chaminade's defense has only allowed ten points per game this season, so Archbishop Stepinac's offense will have their work cut out for them. As for Holy Trinity, their road trip will continue as they head out to face Xavier at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday.
