On the Rockets’ first set of downs, the Huskies made it clear that Saturday was going to be a long afternoon. Dustin Brzezniak’s sack of Glenn Nicholl on the game’s first play from scrimmage set the tone in the Huskies’ 48-7 win that clinched a second place finish in Shore Conference Class B North. The Huskies (8-2, 5-1) forced the Rockets to punt after a three-and-out stand and proceded to march 53 yards on 10 plays to take a 6-0 lead they never relin quished. Junior quarterback Chris Dapolito, who completed 10 of his 17 passes for 113 yards and rushed for 60 yards, scored the game’s first touchdown on a 5-yard keeper. But it was senior tailback/comerback Mike Postell who really put on a show on both sides of the ball. Before the day was done, Postell had amassed 197 yards and scored four touchdowns. He finished the season with 23 TDs and more than 1,000 yards. “I want to thank my line for doing a great job this whole season,” Postell said. “With their help, I got my 1,000 yards this year. We finished strong at 8-2, like we were supposed to. We wanted to win the states, but we fell a little short.” Postell, who received a trophy from the Bayshore Italian American Club as the game’s offensive most valuable player, also did an outstanding job defensively.
