Hyde Park scored first, but we kept our cool and drove down the field with Colston Allen at QB in the 1st half.

Gavin Martinez and Jack Fluitt did great at rush in the second half. Griffin Smith connect with Jack Copeland on a big 4th down conversion in the second half to make it harder for the other team to score as the clock ran down. Connor Schehl continues to make big flag pull plays by pursuing the ball across the field. Victor Koncaba had 1 interception.
It’s a great day to be a Brentwood Bear!
