Eagles come back to top
the Rams 29-28
After letting a 20-7 lead evaporate, the Golden Eagles shut down the Rams and the Eagle offense did just enough to get the hard-fought win. A 21 play 4th quarter drive that began on the Golden Eagle 2 drained 11 minutes and 57 seconds off the clock, culminating with a Nick Herber 29 yard field goal. The Rams had one last attempt to pick up the win, but the Eagles defense, as it had the entire 2nd half, denied the Rams and a kneel down by Dominic Ponder ended the game.
Naples returns home to face Miami Edison, a big winner, 41-12, over Miami Jackson on Thursday night
Golden Eagles cage the Sharks
Regular Season or Kickoff Classic - it didn't matter as the Golden Eagles rolled over Gulf Coast 49-0. A running clock for the last 18 minutes kept the score as close as it was, as the Sharks never threatened to score. Naples was not as sharp as they will need to be next week at Riverview, but it was more than enough to dominate this game. Dominic Ponder threw his first 2 Varsity TD passes and CJ Dietzel ran for 2 TD's to pace the Eagles. The defense? Well, Gulf Coast was limited to negative yardage for the game as they had no answer for the Greer/Sawchuk defense.
