Cardinal Gibbons tops Everglades 19-6 after delay

A 45-minute lightning delay and a malfunctioning scoreboard did not prevent Cardinal Gibbons (1-1) from earning their first win of the season at Everglades (1-1).

The Chiefs first struck when senior quarterback Carmine Scarfone zipped the ball between two defenders, finding Marquis Wilson in the end zone from 20 yards out.

A fourth-quarter touchdown and an interception on the ensuing drive proved not enough for the Gators.

Top Two

Scarfone: Ran and passed for a touchdown; rushed for 70 yards on eight carries.

Javari Alvin: Passed for 59 yards and a touchdown for Everglades.

They Said It

“The key to winning games for us this year is taking care of the football, execution on office, and finishing off drives.”

— Mike Morrill, Cardinal Gibbons coach.
