Devil of a Night

Notes while drying out from a wild, wet and windy night in Chelsea.

The Pioneers scored early, dominated defensively and cruised to their sixth straight victory 28-0 over Chelsea in a persistent rain and howling winds.

Two more TD's for co-captain Jeff Gannon, one from co-captain A. J. Roberto and another from Rick Berardino provided the firepower.

Meanwhile, the Pioneer defense smothered the Red Devils who made it into Pioneer territory only three times but the deepest penetration was to the Lynnfield 45 yard line.

You can read my detailed game story in this week's Villager.

A major shout out to the hardy band of Pioneer rooters who made the soggy trip. The Lynnfield contingent of friends and family (well actually probably mostly family) clearly outnumbered the home team crowd.

So now the preliminaries are over and the Pioneers head into the part of the schedule that means everything. Five straight weeks of battling their CAL Small brethren beginning next Friday night in Amesbury. Fasten your seat belts.

Check back Sunday night for more on the Chelsea game.
