A huge impactful player on both sides for Spencerport was [player_tooltip player_id='1345188' first='Amari' last='Marianetti-Smith']. Coupled with his ability to stop the run on defense, Marianetti-Smith was a bruising ball carrier himself, continuing to get to the second and third levels of the defense. Quarterback Cole Ciao managed the game effectively, protecting the football and leading two critical scoring drives. Spencerport did need to hold Penfield on multiple red zone stops in which their defense showed up. Key contributors such as Aiden Hackett, Ivan Gurman, and Jaedon Ford. Lastly, Ford helped end the game with a diving INT. </p>   <p><br>For Penfield, they put up a fight, but they could not punch the football in when it came to red zone opportunities. Regardless, receiver Jake Maurer was able to make impressive catches throughout from QB Dominic Giunta.
