Emery/Weiner is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home on Thursday. They breezed by Brazosport Christian at home to the tune of 56-26. Winning may never get old, but Emery/Weiner sure is getting used to it with their 11th in a row dating back to last season.
Emery/Weiner had a senior duo take command as Bennett Grossman threw for 206 yards and five touchdowns on only 15 passes and Byron Strug picked up 118 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Nathan Valk helped Grossman out on the ground, rushing for 72 yards and a touchdown.
Emery/Weiner's defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged three passes before it was all said and done. The picks came courtesy of Blake Saikin and Daniel Gordon. Saikin's also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making six total tackles and defending two passes in addition to snagging two interceptions.
