Mustangs win regular season finale

The Mustangs hosted Harvey for their first meeting ever.  The Mustangs were off to a very slow start, giving up touchdowns early in the game before coming alive and returning the favors to pull ahead by halftime.  Offensive scoring was led my FB Mike Nassif with 5 touchdown runs (25 yds, 2 yds, 11 yds, 33 yds, 22 yds) and 3 two-point conversions.  SB Alex Murray scored two touchdown receptions (28 yds and 10 yds) with 2 two-point conversions.  QB Matt Amato scored two touchdowns on 2 yard and 65 yard runs, respectively, with one 2-point conversion.  TE Will Weiskopf completed a 28 yard touchdown reception to round out the Mustang scoring. Other key rushing and passing plays were made by FB Mike Nassif (40 yard run among numerous shorter rushes), QB Matt Amato (30 yard rush among others) and TE Will Weiskopf (30 yard reception).  Offensive blocking improved with the game and key blocks were made by Alex Murray on QB Matt Amato's 65 yard touchdown run among other key blocks, FB Mike Nassif, and the offensive line of G Jack Linnartz, C Jason Weiss and G Stillman Smith.  The Mustang defense turned on the heat after some early Harvey touchdowns, and held the Harvey team to one touchdown in the 2nd half.  Defensive tackling improved with the game to the point that Harvey's running backs were stopped routinely. Key defensive tackles were made by DE Alex Murray, MLB Mike Nassif, DT Jason Weiss, DE Jaylen Thatcher, and CB Matt Amato.  Harvey turnovers were made by DT Jason Weiss (interception), Alex Murray (2 - fumble recovery and interception), and MLB Mike Nassif (fumble recovery).   Kickoff team tackles were made by Ashton Colangelo and Jaylen Thatcher.  The win brings the Mustangs regular season record to 5-1, the best in its 4 year history of 8-player football!  The team awaits its playoff game assignment for next weekend.
