Irondequoit , N.Y. — Considering the Irondequoit Eagles had piled up 186 points in their first five games, containing them was going to be no easy task for the visiting Brighton Bruins on Thursday night.
Or so it seemed. Truth be told, Brighton made it look easy, prevailing 14-6 in the battle of Section V Class A unbeatens. Playing their trademark hard-hitting, give-’em-nothing-on-the-line-of-scrimmage style, the Bruins forced five punts, sacked quarterback Taiden Makubire four times and limited Irondequoit to just the one touchdown.
“You just have to be gap responsible,” Brighton coach Stephen Lian said. “People want to make football complicated, but it’s really not. If you can play gap-sound, physical defense, you’re going to put yourself in a good position.” The Bruins did just that. They prevented Irondequoit’s triple-threat wide receivers from getting open deep, sealed off the edges to prevent big plays to the outside, and occasionally bent but rarely broke when the Eagles relied on running backs Cameron Freeman and Myles Wynn.
