TRINITY CATH. 20

TAMPA CATH. 10

THE DIFFERENCE: Ocala Trinity Catholic got all the momentum it needed when Chris Johnson took the opening kick of the second half all the way to the Tampa Catholic 10-yard line. The Celtics scored three plays later.

GAME NOTES: Tampa Catholic QB Christian Green had an ankle injury and didn't play in the second half. DJ Williams, son of former Buccaneers QB Doug Williams, replaced Green. Tampa Catholic coach Bob Henriquez said that Williams took a few unnecessary sacks but showed his huge upside as well. Green's status for next week's game was unknown. … The Celtics wore out the Crusaders' line late with 93 of their 131 rushing yards coming in the second half.

STAT OF THE GAME: Trinity Catholic QB Rob Henry threw for 111 yards and ran for a touchdown, and had several key third-down conversions and drive-saving runs.

QUOTE OF THE GAME: "This was not an upset," Tampa Catholic coach Bob Henriquez said. "We had some missed opportunities. They are a good football team who outplayed us and outschemed us. We need to get better and we will."
