Antilles Blue Secures Second Straight Shutout

Virgin Islands News

Under the Monday afternoon sun at Fishman Family Field, Antilles’ Middle School Boys Blue Team put together another complete flag football performance, blanking St. John’s Gifft Hill School 33-0.

The victory marked the second consecutive shutout for coach Dariyan Griffin’s squad, which improved to 2-0 after opening the season with a similar result against Bertha C. Boschulte Middle School.

Antilles’s parents endured the heat for what proved to be a worthwhile display of young talent.

Max Martinez ran the offense with three touchdown passes. He opened the scoring with a 10-yard strike to Tucker Edwards, then found himself on the receiving end when Edwards returned the favor with a touchdown toss of his own. Martinez added a third scoring pass, connecting with Sami Asfour from 15 yards out. With all extra points converted, Antilles built a 21-0 advantage.

The Martinez magic extended to the defensive side of the ball when Cameron Martinez, Max’s brother, picked off a pass and took it back for a touchdown. Kolin Sammy also made his presence felt with two interceptions that shut down Gifft Hill’s offensive drives.

Gifft Hill was held scoreless throughout the contest, giving Antilles Blue Team a 33-0 victory.

Up next for the Antilles program: The Grey team (A team) faces All Saints on Wednesday, at 4 p.m. and St. John’s Julius E. Sprauve School on Saturday, at 11:30 a.m., both at Lionel Roberts Stadium.

The Blue and Grey teams will square off in an intrasquad matchup on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at 4 p.m. at Antilles School’s Fishman Family Field.
