Oliver Ames JV Football Team Handles Bedford 43-20 to Stay Undefeated

Sunday's rout of Bedford was a team effort as multiple players got involved on both sides of the ball to lead the OA JV Tigers to a 43-20 win and run their record to 3-0.

Here are some of the key players and what they did:

Cam Williamson-87 yd kick-off return, Patrick McNeely-sack and many pressures of QB, Jake Fitzgerald-interception, Branden Jenkins-3 yd TD run, Cory Hyde-fumble recovery, John McMillan-TD Pass to Xavier Leroy and Jake Fitzgerald, Joe Dixon-sack, Mike Ferrara-3-yd and 30 yd TD runs, Mike Ferrara 2 extra point kicks, Brandon Jenkins and Noah Ryan combined tackle on Bedford 2 pt conversion, Dan Sulllivan-on-side kick-off recovery, Sean Moody and James(J.D.) Donofrio-QB sack, Joe Walsh-multiple catches and fumble recovery, Cam McGrath-5 yd TD run, Isaiah Matier-strips ball for fumble, Steve Tremblay-kick-off return run for 25 yds, Dallas Burnham-2 consecutive defense plays to hold off last minute Bedford score, James (J.D.) Donofrio-unassisted QB sack to end game.

One of the more memorable team plays that exemplifies this group was on a Mike Ferrara carry. Mike was grinding hard to keep moving with multiple Bedford defenders on his back. His teammates noticed and immediately jumped in to move a 20-man pile at least ten yards after the whistle had blown!!

I'll also give credit to the Bedford team for not giving up and their quarterback, No. 14 Joe Zampell, for leading the team to three TD's.

Next weeks game will be a real test as they play Franklin at home on Monday at 3:30.
