Springfield CYO football season continues

Holy Cross JV Football
Holy Cross 28 
Mt. Carmel 6
It was a big night at Scullion stadium last Friday (Sept. 14) as the Holy Cross Crusaders took on Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, winning 28-6.
Lead by a strong ground attack that included Anthony Rightley, Jaden Boswell, and Ian Deal. Patrick Toal stayed protected by a fierce offensive line anchored by Ryan "The Rock" Rockenbach and Nicholas Faraglia. Rightley ripped off runs of 60-plus yards and 40-plus yards Jaden Boswell split the Mt. Carmel defense in half, pancaking the entire left side of the defense.
Coach Don's defense kept up its strong season by dominating the line of scrimmage, keeping Mt. Carmel pinned down in the backfield. Stephen DiBattista, Zach Broomall and Dom Addona lead the defense. There was nowhere for Mt. Carmel to run or hide from this gritty club from the lower eastside of Springfield.
Jason Rodden and Joey Hally capped off the night with a tackle for loss and a fumble recovery.
Holy Cross takes on St. Gabriel's on Friday night, Sept. 21.
Holy Cross Varsity Football
Holy Cross 22
Mt. Carmel 7
 Friday night down at Scullion field spelled doom for yet another one of Holy Cross's opponents, a very tough Our Lady of Mt. Carmel team bounced in and was promptly bounced out. After a two-play touchdown drive, Mt. Carmel never scored again.
Tommy Toal lead the offense on multiple scoring drives, dishing the ball off to Matt McBride and Jack Gibson. Helping the team offensively was Christian Lane and Harry Riley. A pick six by McBride put the Crusaders ahead. The offensive line with the likes of Jason Haly, Frank Leehan, Bill Issertel, Anthony Reginelli, and Ryan Harlow carved out the Mt. Carmel defense, slicing them up for 22 points. John Henderson added the extra point kicks.
Defensively Holy Cross stiffened and would not allow Mt. Carmel to score. The HC defensive tone was set by a punishing hit by Lane right before half that seemed to put to bed any fear of this becoming a match.
Gibson led the team in tackles and there was great pursuit by Zach Venit and Ethan Cook. Holy Cross plays St. Gabriel's Friday night Sept. 21 at Scullion Field at 8 p.m.
