Led by great play on both sides of the ball by
Mike Williams, the Holy Trinity Titans ran all over the Mount St. Michael Mountaineers 42-14 in the first round of the
CHSFL AAA playoffs. Williams, who ran for 75 yards on six carries and scored once, also had five tackles, a sack, and a fumble recovery. Rob Zecker had a 150 yards and a touchdown. Lou Cotrone added 143 yards on the ground and scored a touchdown.
The Titans struck first on their opening driving when Williams ran it in from five yards out. The PAT by Pat Dreiss gave Holy Trinity a 7-0 lead. After a three-and-out by Mount St. Michael, Williams found the end zone again, this time from 36 yards out, to give the Titans a 14-0 lead.
Late in the opening quarter, the Mountaineers turned the ball over. It was long before the Titans found the end zone again. This time it was Zecker running it in from 10 yards out to give
Holy Trinity (Hicksville, N.Y.) a 21-0 advantage.
The rout continued when sophomore quarterback Chris Laviano connected with Nick Olsen for a 32-yard touchdown pass. After Cotrone scored to increase the lead to 35-0, Laviano closed out the first half scoring by hooking up with senior Nick Ferriero from 32 yards out. Holy Trinity led 42-0 at the half.
No. 3 Holy Trinity will play No. 2 Iona Prep in the semifinals.
