The Bellarmine College Prep Bells will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on the Jesuit Marauders at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Hopefully Bellarmine College Prep focused on turnovers this week as team gave up four on Saturday.
Bellarmine College Prep is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after opening their season on the road. They were beaten by Menlo-Atherton 40-10. The Bells were already down big by the end of the third quarter and they stayed that way after failing to score in the fourth.
Meanwhile, Jesuit took care of business in their home opener on Friday (and then some). They blew past Rio Americano 56-7 at home. Given the Marauders' advantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 151st, while the Raiders are ranked 363rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Chris B Effiong Jr was nothing short of spectacular: he rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown. He got the majority of those yards when he took off on a run and that went for an incredible60 yards. The team also got some help courtesy of Alan Cordano, who rushed for 40 yards and two touchdowns.
Cordano wasn't the only one working in the rushing yards department: Jesuit was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 341 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 186 rushing yards in eight consecutive matchups dating back to last season.
