Grunts end second year of football with road win

On Friday, Oct. 28, Father Vincent Capodanno High School closed out their football season with a 48-36 win over Mattamuskeet High School.

The Grunts overcame a significant size disadvantage through relentlessly tough defense.

The Grunts had scores from Keegan Hunt, Jack Brinkmeyer, Braeden Hudson, Caleb Raetz, and through a special big man play reminiscent of Refrigerator Perry in Super Bowl XX, 300 pound Grunt guard Michael Brown ran the ball for a two-point conversion.

Father Vincent Capodanno is a small Catholic high school located in Vass and was established in 2016. This is the second full season for their football program.

This year, they partnered with the National Athletic Village in Southern Pines, so the Grunts could have a home field.
