THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, SEpTEmbER 15, 2023 Page 7 FOOTBALL | FROM PAGE 5 I just told them that they can’t let big mistakes happen in big games like this one. It will cause us. I also said to them that I was encouraged by the fight they put up, but we must now get ready for GBL season, and the next challenge ahead of us.” Chris Zamor, who’s heading to Boston College next year, was the team leader in touchdowns with two against the Hawks. He was on the receiving end of a 33-yard pass from quarterback Carlos Rodriguez to begin the furious second half comeback, before hooking up with halfback Jayden Prophete (10 rushes, 35 yards) for a 75-yard scoring strike on an option play. Rodriguez then tacked on two more points on a conversion pass to Jaysaun Coggins to trim the deficit to eight in the fourth quarter, 29-21. Yariel Ortiz (1 reception, 26 yards, 1 touchdown) got things going offensively for the visitors by catching a 26-yard TD pass from Carlos Rodriguez in the first half. Everett trailed at halftime, 17-6. Two Hasselbeck touchdowns in the second half increased the home team’s advantage to 23 points. But the Everett boys weren’t giving up, led by Zamor’s two aforementioned scores. Flores said Zamor (2 receptions, 108 yards, 2 touchdowns) and Rodrigues were the offensive stars of the game, while Prophete (6.5 tackles, 1 interception) and Zamor (6 tackles) again stood out on defense. Matt Lamonica (2 rushes, 16 yards on offense; 5 tackles, 1 sack on defense), Kevin Diaz (3.5 tackles), Dom Papa (7.5 tackles), Shane Mackenzie (1 tackle, 1 sack), Pedro Rodrigues (5 tackles), Jalen Jones (1 tackle), Aidan Duclos (4 tackles), Jeremiah Jeanlouis (3 tackles), Mark Sylvain (1 tackle), Jason Stark (1 tackle), Donald Michel (2 tackles), Ortiz (3.5 tackles) and Prophete (1for-1 passing, 75 yards, 1 touchdown) also made contributions in this game. The Tide now returns home to face Somerville in the GBL opener tonight (Sept. 15), starting at 6 p.m. Flores says that fans should expect the Highlanders to do a lot of running on offense, and to combat that strategy his team must be physical on defense. “We need to start to execute more consistently on offense to have success against Somerville,” the Everett coach added. “I think we have the ability to bounce back, but we won’t know until [tonight] when the lights come on. But so far in practice this week, they have responded with tremendous energy.” 425r Broadway, Saugus Located adjacent to Kohls Plaza Route 1 South in Saugus at the intersection of Walnut St. We are on MBTA Bus Route 429 781-231-1111 We are a Skating Rink with Bowling Alleys, Arcade and two TV’s where the ball games are always on!
