Offense, Defense Click As Severna Park Football Moves To 2-2

After scoring a combined 27 points in their first two games of the season, losses to Boys’ Latin and Northeast, Severna Park’s football team found a spark with quarterback transfer Blake Howell at the helm. The Falcons scored 67 points over their next two games, a 28-27 victory over Crofton on September 19 and a 39-0 shutout over Severn Run on September 26.

Severna Park came alive in the win over Crofton. Howell engineered the offense with 170 yards passing and a touchdown to go along with 80 yards on the ground and a rushing score. Cole Cavanaugh hauled in three passes for 107 yards and a touchdown.

Defensively, the Falcons did their part to preserve the win. Kamari Brown was all over the field as he made 13 tackles including a fourth-down sack to effectively end the game. Lincoln Fox added 10 tackles, and Landon Williams had nine. Brown and Williams were among seven players who recorded a tackle for loss against the Cardinals.

Other players made their mark in the win over Severn Run. Noah Croghan opened the scoring on defense with a safety. Graham Guenther, an excellent gunner on special teams, scored the first offensive touchdown of the game. Jackson Anders, Williams and Charlie Cavanaugh all notched interceptions, with Charlie Cavanaugh taking the ball away for the second straight game.

Severna Park will try to extend their winning streak against Meade on October 3, Old Mill on October 10 and Arundel on October 17.
