CHSAA Game of the Week !

<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3>Iona Prep vs. St. Anthony's </h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Gaels have been on a hot streak since their season opening loss to Ohio's Archbishop Hoban. Their offense has averaged 46 PPG since as they blaze through the NYCHSFL. Perhaps their biggest test could come when St. Anthony's come to visit Saturday fresh off their win against a very good Monsignor Farrell team (35-28).&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This match is a clash of two titans at the QB position. Dual threat [player_tooltip player_id='233599' first='Ajani' last='Sheppard'] who averages 93 rushing and 135 passing per game will surely give the Friars defense some trouble. The Gaels backfield athletes are all hard to tackle and are known for explosive plays from behind the LOS.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='241877' first='Dante' last='Torres'] who some will say is the best QB in the state, will look to silence the doubters on Saturday. The Friars offense has one of the top passing attacks in all of NY football. Dante averages, a state best 359 passing yards per game with 12 touchdowns and only 1 interception through 4 games.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Korey “KJ” Duff is already on track to shatter his previous sophomore season. Duff already has 430 yards averaging 143 Y/G and 4 touchdowns. We had already predicted for Duff to take a leap this year but he is becoming unequivocally the best receiver in all of NY.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>DB [player_tooltip player_id='231157' first='Ian' last='Strong'] who recently committed to Rutgers is also another weapon on offense who has a big catch radius. He has 4 touchdowns in 2 games on 6 receptions. He shows us he understands how to get behind the defense and get open. As a defensive player he already has 22 tackles and a fumble recovery through two games.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Can Iona's Defense led by (NG) [player_tooltip player_id='342680' first='Capri' last='Martin'] and star linebacker [player_tooltip player_id='232912' first='Zyian' last='Moultrie-Goddard'] stop the Friars potent offense?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
