The Fremont Ross Little Giants earned a hard-fought 21-13 victory over Cardinal Division NLL foe Sylvania Southview this past Friday night, powered by a balanced offensive attack and a relentless defensive front.
The Little Giants tallied 307 total yards of offense, including 214 through the air, as quarterback Breylen Garza turned in one of his most efficient performances of the season. Garza completed 13 of 18 passes for 214 yards, tossing three touchdowns with zero interceptions.
Senior wide receiver Stephen Reiter had an incredible night, hauling in six receptions for 128 yards and two touchdowns. Reiter showcased his big-play ability with multiple long gains fueled by yards after the catch. Jaxson Mackey added a touchdown of his own, finishing with four receptions for 42 yards, while Tallon Brown anchored the ground game with 19 carries for 72 yards.
Defensively, the Little Giants were dominant. They recorded a remarkable 11 team sacks. While single-game sack totals aren’t officially tracked in the Fremont Ross record book, Head Coach Chad Long believes this performance would rank among the very best in program history.
The sack barrage was a total team effort, with Parker Jackson, Noah Crawford, Anthony Sorg, Tallon Brown, Kole Myers, and Marquez Williams all contributing to the total. Cade Reineck led the defensive charge with seven solo tackles and five assists, while Kole Myers continued to make his presence felt as the anchor of both the offensive and defensive fronts.
Coach Long praised his linemen after the win, saying, “It starts up front—offensively and defensively.”
The Little Giants will look to keep their momentum rolling as they hit the road once again tomorrow night, traveling to Springfield to take on another tough Cardinal Division opponent in NLL play.
