The Sheehan Titans will head out to challenge the Killingly Redmen at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Sheehan will head into Friday's match hoping to keep the good times rolling: they proved they can win big two weeks ago (they won by 41) but on Friday they proved they can win the close ones too. They skirted past Xavier 31-28.
A big part of Sheehan's victory came down to the chemistry between Jake O'Brien and his top target Jayden Dougherty. O'Brien threw for 185 yards and two touchdowns while Dougherty picked up 112 receiving yards and two touchdowns. What's more, O'Brien also racked up 31 rushing yards, the mosthe's had since back in September of 2023.
Sheehan wouldn't let Xavier keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Sheehan can thank Nick Ferraro and Jack Grant for forcing both of them.
