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).
This match is a clash of two titans at the QB position. Dual threat Ajani Sheppard Ajani Sheppard 6'3" | 225 lbs | QB Iona Prep | 2023 State NY 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.
Dante Torres Dante Torres 6'3" | 190 lbs | QB St. Anthony's | 2023 State NY 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.
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.
DB Ian Strong Ian Strong 6'4" | 180 lbs | ATH St. Anthony's | 2023 State NY 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.
Can Iona’s Defense led by (NG) Capri Martin Capri Martin 6'2" | 270 lbs | DL Iona Prep | 2023 State NY and star linebacker Zyian Moultrie-Goddard Zyian Moultrie-Goddard 6'2" | 240 lbs | LB Iona Prep | 2023 State NY stop the Friars potent offense?
