Grounded

No comebacks tonight, although the Pioneers did fight right to the end.

The fact is the offense could never sustain any consistent attack and the defense could never control Rufus Rushins, Nick Bona and the Bishop Fenwick rushing game. Ultimately that was the story.

The Crusaders rolled for 260 yards rushing against the Pioneers and a pair of one yard TD's. Rushins came as advertised, burly and quick and racked up 179 yards on the Lynnfield defense.

The Pioneers finally got on the board on a Mike Karavetsos to Alex Pascucci 14 yard pass with a minute and half to play but it was too little too late.

Everything seemed just a bit off all game and the result was a tough 14-7 loss to drop the Pioneers to 1-2 on the season.

You can get all the details in my game story with my color photos in the Villager on Wednesday.

Check back Sunday night and I'll have more the game.

That's it for now.
