Jonathan Nordlinger Goes Supernova in Riverdale Country Victory

Riverdale Country's win was their sixth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 5-2. Nordlinger and Riverdale Country are taking a road trip to challenge Hackley at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Amir Hogans Makes It Two for Rye Country Day
Another Rye Country Day player making an appearance on this list is Amir Hogans. He picked up 48 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 100 yards on only 13 carries.
Dalton's probably not too fond of Hogans given he always seems to get the better of them. When Hogans last faced the Tigers last Saturday, he rushed for 178 yards and a touchdown while picking up 9.4 yards per carry, and also picked up 40 receiving yards.
