The St. Benedict Saints went on the road yesterday and defeated the Resurrection Phoenix in another D8 Senior nailbiter; the final score this time around was 32-28.The victory moved St. Benedict to 10-1, with one regular season game remaining (against Woodland). Resurrection fell to 9-2, but even if the Phoenix win their finale against St. David and the Saints lose (i.e. both teams finish at 10-2), then the Saints would still get first place based upon their 2-1 regular season record against Resurrection.
The top-seeded Senior team also hosts the D8 finals, meaning that if the Saints win their semifinals, the D8 finals would be played down in Cambridge.
The score other game on Monday (MDCSS @ SMHS) wasn't reported by the timing of this post.
One junior game was also played on Monday, with undefeated Resurrection defeating Rockway by a 46-13 final. Krissia Vasquez had 14 for Rez in that one, while Kat Dyck-Steinman led the Flames with 7.
