Nazareth Comes Back to Defeat Marist 39-29

Less than three minutes into Friday’s night CCL/ESCC interdivision Blue/Orange matchup, Marist Redhawks jumped out to a 14-0 over #3 Nazareth Academy. A Marist punt return followed by a quick score, then a fumble return for a touchdown and the Roadrunners were down two scores.

Slowly, Nazareth clawed back. It was 14-13 at the half. In the third quarter, the Roadrunners added two more touchdowns. Marist added one as well. In the fourth, despite keeping a Marist drive alive on a personal foul which led to a Redhawk touchdown, the Roadrunners added still two more touchdowns and held the Redhawks. It was pretty much over midway through the fourth.

Nazareth looks as good as I have seen this year. Mount Carmel is close.
