THE DIFFERENCE: Size, speed and experience. Out-of-Door Academy (1-1) moved the ball effortlessly against a host team overstocked with freshmen and eighth-graders en route to a 41-12 halftime advantage. Three minutes into the second quarter, junior running back A.J. Strong already had scored four touchdowns to account for a 28-0 lead.
GAME NOTES: Mercy for Carrollwood Day School (1-1) came in the form of a running clock throughout the second half and good sportsmanship by the Thunder, who intentionally stalled their last two drives with quarterback Tony Gurry repeatedly dropping to his knee. ... Back-to-back touchdowns in the second quarter gave Patriots fans something to cheer about. Wide receiver Michael Kanter scored on a 49-yard reception from QB Billy Embody midway through the period. Matt Monteilh ran for a 12-yard score less than four minutes later.
STAT OF THE GAME: Strong contributed 201 offensive yards, including 141 rushing yards and three touchdowns on six carries. He was not given another touch after scoring on a 60-yard pass reception with 9:09 left in the second quarter.
QUOTE OF THE GAME: "You play how you practice, and we had a lousy week of practice. We came out here and we just didn't tackle, and we backed that up by not blocking too well." - Carrollwood Day coach Lane McLaughlin
