Friday night was the matchup between Loyola Blakefield and Pallotti in a game that featured AJ Szymanski, Alex Moore and Daniel Wingate, but it was Blakefield who would squeeze out a 28-27 win. Szymanski opened the scoring for the Dons, who quickly found themselves in a 19-7 deficit midway through the third quarter. But Loyola Blakefield would storm back and took its first lead with just 2:30 left in the game after the made extra point gave them a 28-27 lead.
Elsewhere on Friday night, one week after topping Whitman 37-3, Churchill moved back over .500 after topping Poolesville 19-0 on the road. Wide receiver Zeke Avit registered both touchdowns, including a 27-yard touchdown reception. Bergen Catholic, meanwhile, were able to hold on against St. Joes for a 31-21 win in a game that DE/OLB DJ Samuels was briefly banged up. The explosive athlete returned to the game and recorded a pass breakup at the line of scrimmage, preserving the win.
