Juice Glover-Brown lead the way with 24 carries for 74 yards (3.1 AVG).
The offense did what they needed to do Friday night, and the defense played off their success.
The leading tackler for the Crusaders was senior
Andrew Stofko, who finished with 15 total tackles (8 solo).
15 Crusaders registered a tackle against the Bombers with Stofko, Lawson, and Dwyer leading the way.
The
PLAY OF THE GAME on defense for Moeller was made by sophomore
Makaio Butler.
His pick six late in the 4th quarter to seal the game for the Crusaders clinched the W for Big Moe.
The defense looked like a different beast on Friday night, the HAVOC MOB was flying to the football.
Look for Coach Bathiany and the Crusaders to keep the foot on the gas pedal as they head to La Salle.
