Week 10 Football: Riverview, Palmetto, Venice, Cardinal Mooney among winners
A roundup of Sarasota and Manatee area high school football games played on Friday, Oct. 23, 2026. Riverview 62, Sarasota 34 Gabe Halperin knows about redemption. He felt it in about 15 minutes. With under seven minutes left in the third quarter, the senior running back fumbled. Sarasota recovered it at Riverview's 34-yard line, and Sailor quarterback Hudson West capitalized on the opportunity, ending the drive with a 14-yard passing touchdown to receiver Evan Larrick. The score was tied at 34. But Halperin also plays on defense. And the middle linebacker made up for the fumble by the end of the quarter. He not only picked off West, but he also returned it 70 yards to the Sarasota 10. "I saw Hudson just looking right at my eyes," Halperin said. "It was basically telegraphical. I just caught the ball and took off." It was the turning point in an otherwise close game. Running back Justin Flores ran it in, and the Sailors didn't score for the rest of the game. Riverview defeated Sarasota 62-34 at Cleland Stadium, marking its 15th straight win against the Sailors. Riverview (7-2) hasn't lost to its cross-town rival since 2011, and scored 28 unanswered points
