Westinghouse: Westinghouse did the job that they needed to do and were fully expected to do. Their offense was electric as usual and the defense swarmed an undermanned Carrick team. The City Playoff stands next and the House is in good position for their second City League title in a row.
Carrick: The Raiders struggled with numbers issues as the season wore on, but the players who finished out the game should be proud of their commitment and dedication. I got to speak to a few of their coaches today and they’re hopeful that next year can bring about a more traditional pre-season and in-person experience to build a more solid foundation and keep players for the long term.
