The Junior Varsity Hamilton Ironmen travelled to Newmarket this past Saturday to take on the Newmarket Storm. The game was filled with big hits from the Ironmen defense and great plays from the offense.
From start to finish Hamilton controlled the pace of the game as the defense shutdown the Storm’s passing attack as Julian Quaglia (St. Jean De Brebeuf H.S.) returned an interception for a touchdown to get the Ironmen on the board.
Later, Hamilton quarterback Quinn Spera (Sherwood H.S.) found Jordan Brucculeri (St. Thomas Moore H.S.) in the back of the endzone to put the Ironmen ahead early. Hamilton’s offensive line fired off the ball and created holes for Mark Gibbon (Bishop Tonnos H.S) and Jake Reddick (Bishop Ryan H.S) to add rushing touchdowns.
On defense Hamilton hit the Storm hard as Melvin Baughan (Sherwood H.S.), Domenic Bellardini (Bishop Tonnos H.S.) and Taylor Gradwell (Sherwood H.S.) played great run stopping defense to force the Storm to continuously turnover the ball. Bellardini’s kicking game also helped the Ironmen as he booted a 75 yard kickoff thru the endzone to gain a rouge.
This Sunday the Ironmen will take on their rivals the London Falcons at McMaster University at 1pm. This will be a huge game for both teams, as the winner will get home field advantage the following week for the playoffs. Come out and cheer on your Hamilton Ironmen!
