The Neumann-Goretti Saints are taking a road trip to face off against Pope John Paul II at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.
Neumann-Goretti can't be to happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They had to suffer through a 45-12 loss at the hands of Roman Catholic. While losing is never fun, the Saints can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 128th, while the Cahillite are ranked 15th).
Meanwhile, Pope John Paul II earned a 34-27 win over Springfield Township on Friday.
Luke Terlesky had an outrageously good game as he threw for 222 yards and three touchdowns while completing 81% of his passes, and also rushed for 69 yards. A healthy portion of that aerial production (134 yards to be exact) went to Braden Reed.
Neumann-Goretti and Pope John Paul II were almost perfectly matched up when the teams last played back in November of 2019, but Neumann-Goretti suffered an agonizing 29-28 loss. Thankfully for Neumann-Goretti, Kamal Gray (who rushed for 40 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 182 yards and a touchdown) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
