Two dominant signal callers in Kaden Gonzalez and Carson Miller are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Yorktown Huskers are taking a road trip to challenge the Rye Garnets at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Last Friday, Yorktown was fully in charge, breezing past Eastchester 40-7. Given the Huskers' advantage in MaxPreps' New York football rankings (they are ranked 16th, while the Eagles are ranked 118th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Gonzalez was his usual excellent self, throwing for 230 yards and five touchdowns while completing 87.5% of his passes, and also rushing for 55 yards and a touchdown. Brady Mcenroe did his part to keep the secondary busy, picking up 105 receiving yards.
Meanwhile, Rye put another one in the bag on Friday to keep their perfect season alive. They put the hurt on Brewster with a sharp 34-14 victory. The Garnets pushed the score to 34-7 by the end of the third, a deficit the Bears cut but never quite recovered from.
Chris Iuliano continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 101 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. Ty Ramachandran also helped out as he racked up 103 rushing yards.
Rye pushed their record up to 9-0 with the win, which was their tenth straight at home dating back to last season. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 24.5 points. As for Yorktown, they are on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 6-3 record this season.
Yorktown came up short against Rye when the teams last played back in October, falling 34-21. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Miller, who rushed for 79 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, and also threw for 169 yards and two touchdowns. Now that Yorktown knows the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? There's only one way to find out.
