St. Rita tames Leo

Chicago - On rain-soaked field, (our number 2) St. Rita Mustangs continued to roll with a strong performance today against Leo high school in a Catholic league match-up and Amateur Sports News Network was there.

   
   

Leo started the game off controlling the clock. They controlled the ball well over 9 minutes in the opening possession but fail to execute a score. 

In the second half, the Mustangs then advantage of the good field position and kicked their game into high gear. Quarterback Lawrence Garrett threw two touchdown passes on the afternoon, a 36 yard and a 15 yard.

 

 

Once Dave Marciano scored on a 4th-and-goal attempt in the second half, St. Rita never looked back. The mustangs began to run in a full stride up and down the soaked turf of Gately stadium running off 31 straight points.

St. Rita's defense held Leo to -26 yards in the second and third quarter. There were some questionable calls against Leo and they were unable to overcome them.

 

 

Leo did score late in the fourth quarter on a pass from Darwin Rogers to Paul Beene. Another bright spot for Leo was their running back Robert Morgan who finished the game with 67 yards and 20 carries.

 


Despite the score, there were loyal fans at the game.
