ALBANY METRO MALLERS ROLL ON ROAD TRIP!
A leisurely four and a half hour bus trip through Adirondack Park did little to dull the competitive senses of the Albany MetroMallers as they rolled into Potsdam this afternoon, and rolled back out tonight with 46 - 0, Empire Football League victory over the St. Lawrence Trail Blazers.
Maller Quarterback Scott Lawson hooked up with wideout Collis Martin 4 times for 149 yards and three aerial touchdowns, enroute to a 8 for 11 overall performance to rack up 217 yards. Meanwhile the Maller running back tandem of Jadel Whitfield and Sylvester Cooperwood took the control on the ground combining for 156 yards on 13 carries and 2 touchdowns each.
The Albany defense led up front by "Team Brian" Domingo and Northern, Shawn Hardy and Chip Everett stopped the Trail Blazers at every juncture, with team defense. Everett was credited with 4 solo stops, and a team high 2 sacks. The Maller secondary also had an exceptional night as Farid Baaklini, Mo James, and Del Gomes each tallied interceptions against the over matched St. Lawrence Offense.
Albany is no 2 - 0 on the regular season atop the Empire Football League. St. Lawrence falls to 1 - 1 after the second week of the season.
The Metro Mallers return home to Bleecker Stadium next Saturday evening, July 23rd at 7:30pm when they host the Canada's Ottawa Demon Deacons from Canada, in Empire Football League Action.
