Former South Fork standout Corey McIntyre joined Caffey as a member of the Falcons coaching staff. Caffey praised his players for their hard work and dedication, stating, \"The kids came to play. They listened. We worked on a lot of different things, and they’re starting to get it. They played hard.\"\n\nSenior linebacker Alex Thornton sealed the win with a 77-yard touchdown return on the final play of the game. Junior defensive end Jayden Ruzicka set up the touchdown, tipping a screen pass for Marcus Rogers to dive into the end zone. Junior quarterback Dre Lott added a 5-yard touchdown run in the second quarter, pushing Jensen Beach's lead to 21-3.\n\nThe Falcons maintained their lead through the third quarter with a 37-yard field goal by Damien Heissenberg.
