Football Friday: Cretin-Derham Hall at Stillwater

LAST WEEK

Stillwater (2-0, 2-0 Suburban East) edged White Bear Lake 17-14; Cretin-Derham Hall (2-0, 2-0 Suburban East) upended Mounds View 21-9.

PLAYMAKERS

-Sam Pearson (Stillwater, kicker)
The senior knocked through a 27-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Ponies past White Bear Lake last week.

-Nate Ricci (Stillwater, quarterback)
The junior was a dual threat against White Bear Lake, passing for 120 yards and rushing for 82.

RAIDERS WIN IF …

They can get things going on offense. They're averaging less than 250 yards of offense through two games, and it's going to take more than that to get past the Ponies.

PONIES WIN IF …

They can make the right adjustments at halftime. This game—a matchup of the only two unbeaten teams left in the Suburban East—is going to be won in the second half, and the Raiders have allowed just one touchdown after intermission so far this year.
