Varsity Football
Dryden traveled to Brown City on Thursday, August 31 and came away with a 66-0 loss. "It was a rough game against a tough opponent," reflected Coach Hunter Gall. "This was a big learning game for everyone, and it's time to go back to the drawing board and correct the mistakes we made throughout the game. We are a young and inexperienced team. I am confident we will learn from this game, and use it as a tool to improve."
Offensively, Gianni Coscione had 14 carries for 3 yards, went 5 for 13 passing for 31 yards, and had one interception. Santiago Perales added 5 carries for 12 yards. Receptions were led by Sonny Coscione with 5 for 22 yards, followed by Luke Taylor with one for 9 yards.
On the other side of the ball, Santiago Perales led the team with 6 solo tackles and 3 assists. Gianni Coscione and Josh Harris added 4 solo tackles each with 3 and 6 assists, respectively. Adding 3 solos and 3 assists was Sonny Coscione. David Insley (2 solo, 4 assists) and Brandon Woolner (2 solo, 5 assists) finished the defensive attack for the Cardinals.
Dryden faces Deckerville in an away game on Friday, September 8 at 7:00 p.m.
