FOOTBALL | Patriots wrap up perfect regular season, turn attention to the tantalizing challenge ahead
Liberty’s season-long dominance has resulted in limited opportunities for the high-powered offense -- especially the passing attack -- but that hasn’t stopped the key players in that aspect of the unit from taking advantage of their sporadic chances. That was the case again Friday when Cy Leach, Pierce Fioroni and Koleman Hendrix produced a chunk of their team’s offense. Leach passes for 225 yards and 3 touchdowns, Fioroni racked up 73 yards on only two receptions and Hendrix grabbed 3 passes for 46 yards – each receiver hauling in a TD. For good measure, Fioroni also returned another punt 66 yards for a score and Hendrix contributed a key block to spring Kaiden Joseph on a 52-yard jaunt to the house.
