Piper took care of business in their home opener on Friday (and then some). They never let the Deerfield Beach Bucks onto the board and left with a 23-0 win. This was payback for the Bengals, who suffered a 42-0 defeat the last time these two teams met.
Julien Halley was nothing short of spectacular: he rushed for 170 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.4 yards per carry. Another big playmaker for Piper was Antonio Harris, who returned a punt for a touchdown.
Another reason for the win was Piper's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for four sacks. Deerfield Beach's QB won't forget Jahmar Midi anytime soon given he sacked him twice. Antrell Mcwhirter was another major factor on D, picking up a sack, making six total tackles (2.0 for loss), and defending a pass.
Deerfield Beach is on a seven-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-2.
