At Red Hook, Phil DeSantis and John Perugino each scored three touchdowns to lead (1-0, 3-1) Marlboro. DeSantis ran 20 times for 200 yards and three touchdowns, while Perugino rushed six times for 91 yards and two TDs and also returned an interception 93 yards for a score.
Marlboro rushed for 410 yards on 52 carries for the day, while (2-1, 3-1) Red Hook was limited to 113 yards on 30 attempts. Tristen Schiafo accounted for much of that for the Raiders as he had 82 yards on 16 rushes.
“We dug ourselves a pretty big hole early with penalties, blown assignments and silly mistakes all day,” said Red Hook coach Bill Stutz, who saw the Raiders make mistakes they had not made the first three weeks. “Marlboro’s a really good team. You can’t make mistakes against a team like that and expect to win.”
Billy Williamson capped a 93-yard drive with a 1-yard TD plunge to put Marlboro ahead. DeSantis scored on runs of 4 and 3 yards to make it 21-0.
Nick Morrissey hit the first of two TD passes to Hunter Cole to get Red Hook on the board. An onside kick failed, and DeSantis cashed it in with a 34-yard scoring run.
Morrissey, who ran for a TD in the first half, threw for 172 yards, including 112 to Cole. He found his fellow senior for a 63-yard TD play in the third, but it was sandwiched around 5- and 46yard TD runs by Perugino to put Marlboro in command 42-18.
Perugino’s pick-six settled the game early in the fourth. Red Hook was able to score on a safety in the closing minutes.
