The Justin-Siena Braves will venture away from home to challenge the St. Patrick-St. Vincent Bruins at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
While Braves fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past St. Helena 20-17.
Meanwhile, St. Patrick-St. Vincent gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. They walked away with a 35-28 win over Napa. The victory was a breath of fresh air for the Bruins as it put an end to their five-game losing streak dating back to last season.
A big part of the win came down to the chemistry between Trevor Moelk and his top target Drew Christensen. Moelk threw for 252 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.0 yards per attempt while Christensen picked up 194 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Christensen torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 80 yards.
Justin-Siena strolled past St. Patrick-St. Vincent when the teams last played back in October of 2023 by a score of 39-21. The rematch might be a little tougher for Justin-Siena since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
