Danbury's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Jake Okeefe
Danbury's eight-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Jake OKeefe. OKeefe turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, rushing for 67 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 108 yards and a touchdown on only eight passes.
Danbury's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-4. OKeefe and Danbury will host Westhill at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Brayden Jagoe stepped things up a notch to give Trumbull the 'W'. Jagoe turned in nothing short of a gem, making eight total tackles and defending a pass. He didn't just play on offense: he also made eight total tackles and defended a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
Trumbull now has a winning record of 3-2. Jagoe and Trumbull will be playing in front of their home fans against Greenwich at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

D'angelo Came Up Big in Greenwich's 20-17 Loss
While Greenwich might've come up empty on Friday, Michael D'Angelo wasn't going down without a fight. Nobody could stop D'Angelo as he rushed for 110 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries, and also threw for 137 yards and a touchdown.
With the defeat, Greenwich broke their four-game winning streak and moved their record to 4-1. D'Angelo and Greenwich will take on Trumbull at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Lorenzo Sevilla Makes It Two for Trumbull
The second Trumbull player making an appearance here is Lorenzo Sevilla, and for good reason. He picked up three sacks, made seven total tackles, and defended two passes. He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
For the season, Sevilla has averaged 7.5 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after four games last season, he was only averaging 2.25 total tackles per game.
