Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Ridgewood). They took their game on Friday with ease, bagging a 49-9 win over the Elmwood Park Tigers. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
Ridgewood was led to victory by Angelo Vitale and Nicco Camillo. Vitale rushed for 87 yards and a pair of touchdowns on only eight carries, while Camillo rushed for 89 yards and three TDs on only nine carries. Those 87 rushing yards gave Vitale a new career-high. Another rusher making a difference was Frank Horak, who rushed for 65 yards and one score.
Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Ridgewood proved: they limited Elmwood Park to a paltry one yards per carry. While two picked up at least 12 total tackles, Michal Cwieczkowski stood above the rest. He picked up a sack, made 12 total tackles (5.0 for loss), and defended two passes. Ridgewood's run defense has been on the up-and-up: they allowed 4.12 yards per carry earlier this season, but they've only allowed 6.6 on average over their last five games.
Ridgewood's defense didn't let the opposing QB, get away unscathed either: they got into the backfield for four sacks. That dominant display was truly a team effort as four different players picked up one apiece. They got some further help from Cwieczkowski: he picked up a sack, made 12 total tackles (5.0 for loss), and defended two passes.
The win made it two in a row for Ridgewood and bumps their season record up to 3-6. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 42.0 points over those games. As for Elmwood Park, their defeat dropped their record down to 0-9.
As of now, neither Ridgewood nor the Tigers have any future games scheduled.
