On Friday night, the Brother Martin Crusaders (3-3) took their show on the road and defeated the Sulphur Golden Tors (4-2) by a score of 58-13. With the Tors defense committed to stopping running back Bruce Jordan-Swilling, quarterback John-Paul “JP” Pierce carefully picked apart the Tors secondary by completing 11 of 12 passes for 272 yards and 5 touchdowns. Jordan-Swilling still managed to amass 124 yards on 18 carries without playing much in the second half. Jeremy Singleton led the receiving corps with 6 catches for 124 yards. The Crusader defense came up big by holding the Tors to a season low in points (13) and yards (297).
