Neighbors | Submitted.Canfield's Vince Giordano sacked the Aurora quarterback at the Sept. 10 match against the Candfield High School freshman football team.

The Canfield High School freshman football team hosted the Aurora Greenmen on Sept. 10 under threatening skies.

The lightening was in the form of Canfield’s quick strike offense that struck early and often and the thunder was brought by a defense that did not allow a first down in the first half. By the time the game was halted early in the fourth quarter due to severe weather, the Cardinals had a commanding 34-0 lead.

Canfield scored on their first possession when signal caller Glenn Griswold dashed in from 19-yards out. Griswold hit Matt Zaremski on a bubble screen for the conversion and a 8-0 lead. Canfield’s special teams got into the action on the Greenmen’s next possession. Following a sack by Vince Giordano to force a fourth down, Max Dawson burst through the Aurora line to block the punt and fell on it in the endzone to make 14-0.

Tailback Colin Hritz continued the onslaught when he sprinted 60-yards to paydirt early in the second quarter. Griswold hooked up with Zaremski on a 40-yard scoring toss down the right sideline on Canfield‘s next possesion. PJ Hallof was a recipient of a Griswold aerial for the conversion and a 28-0 Canfield lead at the half. Giordano rounded out the scoring when he burst over from 2-yards for the final margin.
