Lions continue to show up early and Often in win versus Albert Gallatin

South Fayette won its second consecutive conference game with a mercy rule win over Albert Gallatin 63-6. The Lions used a quick strike offense and a suffocating defense to stifle the Colonials before giving way to the reserves to finish the win. 
 

The defense had the challenge again this week as they faced a Wing-T offense that typically causes challenges. They maintained their eye discipline and swarming mentality. Overall, they held the run heavy offense to 46 yards rushing and six points. The Albert Gallatin QB, their typical workhorse, was held to -15 yards rushing on the day. 
 

The Lions also got a spark through their special teams. The Lion kick off unit corralled the returner inside the 3 yard line. After a defensive three-and-out, Sophomore punt returner #3 Braeden Cernicky returned a punt 29 yards for their first punt return TD of the year. 
 

Offensively, Aayden Wright continues to shine. In less than a half of work, Wright had 7 carries for 125 yards and two touchdowns as well as adding an explosive 22 yard reception. On the day, the Lions totals 496 yards total with 235 of them coming on the ground. On the day, the total team effort had eight different players cross the goalline. 
 

South Fayette travels back to Fayette County this Friday to take on Laurel Highlands at 7pm. The team appreciates everyone who made the trip and looks forward to another great outing.
