GRR: Rye
Rye HS defeated Greenwich HS in a close midweek game between one of the strongest teams in New York, and one of the strongest in Connecticut.
It was a cold, windy night in Westchester, NY in front of an energetic crowd with fans from both teams (they are actually only 10 miles away from each other).

This was Rye's first home game of the season and they came out firing, getting over the line three times in the first 15 minutes.
Rye HS out of New York logged an impressive road win over the weekend, defeating Jesuit New Orleans 40-17 on a March trip.

""Incredible hospitality from Coach Adam Massey and the Jesuit New Orleans families," said Rye Head Coach James O'Hara. "Top notch."
Rye HS beat Greenwich on the road 12-7 last night.

It was 12-0 at halftime after tries from flanker Andrew Wilmarth and No. 8 Owen Welburn. Archer Fenton converted one of those.
Rye defeated Georgetown Prep 13-0 in very wet conditions. The game was delayed an hour for lightning, but even when the lightning left the rain kept coming.
