Peabody takes down Swampscott in NEC battle PHOTO | SPENSER HASAK Bishop Fenwick receiver Costa Beechin caught one touchdown and rushed for another in a win over Austin Prep Friday night at Donaldson Stadium. Bishop Fenwick earns conference win over Austin Prep FOOTBALL By Mike Alongi PEABODY — Behind a solid defensive effort and a balanced attack on the offensive end, the Bishop Fenwick football team kept its perfect record alive on Friday with a 28-7 win over Catholic Central League foe Austin Prep at Donaldson Stadium. “The guys are really playing well and really coming together,” said Fenwick coach Dave Woods. “(The coaches) were talking about it earlier and we realized that we haven’t had a bad day of practice with this group yet. It’s great that they’re all adapting well and listening to the coaching and executing the game plan out there.” Quarterback Steven Woods had a solid game under center, completing 10-of-19 passes for 196 yards and two touchdowns. Receiver Costa Beechin had one rushing and one receiving touchdown, while receiver Jason Romans also added a receiving touchdown. Running back Troy Irizarry rushed for one touchdown in the win. “We were able to spread Jason and Costa out wide, and there aren’t a lot of teams who can stick with both of those guys out there all game long,” said Woods. “It was nice to be able to move the ball through the air efficiently like we did.” After struggling to a threeand-out on its first offensive possession, Fenwick came right back with a few big plays near the end of the first quarter. After a solid punt return set up the Crusaders inside the Austin Prep 30, Woods dropped back and connected with Beechin on a 29-yard go route for a score to make it a 7-0 game. The Crusaders added to that lead early in the second quarter thanks to a pair of great plays from Romans. Backed up in their own territory, Woods hit Romans on a quick screen that Romans turned into a 45-yard run-and-catch. On the very next play, Woods found Romans up the sideline for a 27-yard touchdown to put the score at 14-0 Fenwick. After another solid defensive possession, Fenwick got the ball back with less than two minutes to go and a chance to extend the lead further. The Crusaders did just that, as Woods threw a pair of quick strikes to get deep in Austin Prep territory. After a three-yard touchdown run from Irizarry, Fenwick took a 21-0 lead into the halftime break. Austin Prep was able to avoid the shutout with a touchdown late in the third quarter, but when Fenwick got the ball back to start the fourth, the Crusaders went on a 14-play marathon drive that ate up more than 10 minutes of game clock. After Beechin capped the drive with a 27-yard touchdown run, the Crusaders coasted to the 28-7 victory. Fenwick (3-0) hosts rival St. Mary’s — which knocked off previously undefeated Bishop Feehan Friday night — next Friday (7). “We know we’re going to have our hands full, they’ve got a ton of talented athletes and they’re obviously playing really good football right now,” said Woods. “It’s always great to go up against them in a rivalry game, and we know we’re going to have to put in another good week of practice to get ready for them.” BOYS SOCCER By Mike Alongi SWAMPSCOTT ― The Peabody boys soccer team may not have played its most consistent game Tuesday afternoon, but the Tanners put together enough solid plays to come away with a 5-2 win over Northeastern Conference foe Swampscott on the road at Blocksidge Field. “We didn’t play consistent possession soccer like we’re capable of, but we moved the ball well at times,” said Peabody coach Stan McKeen. “I thought we missed out on a couple of really good opportunities to score in the first half, but it all panned out and we were able to get the win.” Junior Victor Maciel led the way for Peabody with two goals, while senior Marc Ortiz added one goal and one assist. Juniors Ryan Alves and Bruno Correia each scored one goal, while senior Matthew Calver had two assists and sophomore Hugo Coutinho had one assist. For Swampscott, junior Andrew Freger and senior Valerio Tatafiore each scored one goal in the loss. “This was a good lesson for the guys and it gives us things to work on when we get back to it (Wednesday),” said Swampscott coach Adam Bailey. “Peabody is a strong team and they put up a great fight.” The game was scoreless for the first 10 minutes of play before Peabody got on the scoreboard. After taking the ball up the right side, Calver sent a cross into the box that was headed into the net by Ortiz to make it a 1-0 game. But Swampscott answered right back, getting a goal from Freger to knot the score at 1-1 and even out the momentum. The game was back-andforth for the next several minutes from there, but Peabody was able to retake the lead with about 13 minutes left in the first half when Correia knocked home a rebound. Then, with less than 30 seconds to play in the half, Maciel scored his first of the game to give the Tanners a 3-1 lead at the break. Peabody then came right out and scored early in the second half, with Maciel finding the back of the net for the second time. Swampscott was able to get a goal back a few minutes later when Tatafiore launched a missile into the back of the net from 25 yards out, but Peabody offset that momentum when Alves scored to make it a 5-2 game with about 14 minutes to play. The Big Blue made a couple of runs at the net to try and get a little closer, but the Peabody defense held strong and the Tanners walked away with the win. Peabody (3-2-0) hosts Danvers Friday (4). “We just need to keep working on the fundamentals and focus on moving the ball more,” said McKeen. “We’ve got three games this week, so we’ve got to stay focused and hopefully come out of the week with a winning record.”
