Rocky Hill's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Joey Motes
Thanks in part to Joey Motes, Rocky Hill said goodbye to their six-game losing streak dating back to last season. Motes did his part (and then some), rushing for 142 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, while also throwing for 158 yards and four touchdowns on only 13 passes for the 'W'. His longest rush was for an impressive 67 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Rocky Hill's first win this season bumped their record up to 1-3. Motes and Rocky Hill will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Tolland at 6:30 p.m. on October 18th.

Mateo Dolzadelli's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Lewis Mills over Rocky Hill
Mateo Dolzadelli posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Thursday. He picked up 97 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 64 yards and a touchdown. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 81 yards.
Lewis Mills is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-3. Dolzadelli and Lewis Mills will get a bit of extra time to process the defeat as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Plainville at 6:30 p.m. on October 18th.

Joey Montalvo Goes Supernova in East Catholic Victory

Vincent Burbank Makes It Two for Northwest Catholic
Another Northwest Catholic player making an appearance on this list is Vincent Burbank. He threw for 221 yards and three touchdowns on only 16 passes.
Plainville had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Burbank it was a similar story. Burbank rushed for 101 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 115 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Blue Devils duked it out back in October of 2023.
