South River fell to Old Mill in the regional semifinals Friday night as the Patriots' defense kept Connor Cox and his talented receiver corps at bay.
One of the most successful seasons in South River football’s history came to an end Friday night, as the Seahawks fell to reigning state champions, the Old Mill Patriots 21-7. After defeating the same Old Mill side in a shootout the previous week, the renowned South River passing game—led by senior quarterback Connor Cox and senior wide receiver Eric Young—was contained by a brutal Patriot secondary, which held the Seahawks to only three receptions in the first half. Patriots running back Shawn Brown made use of his 39 carries, as he gained a massive 225 yards and 2 scores on the ground. Old Mill realized early that the running game was working as they elected to rush on the first 19 consecutive plays and kept with it throughout the game—…

The Wildcats used a balanced offense and stingy defense to move 4-0 on the year. The Seahawks fell to 2-2.
The Arundel High Wildcats continued to roll over their opponents, recording a 49-6 win over rival South River in Edgewater. Arundel used a balanced offensive attack, with six different Wildcats scoring touchdowns. Jack Gordon and Cooper Hibbs combined for 165 yards passing, while running back Matt Davis ran for 85 yards on 12 carries, scoring twice. Arundel went out to a 7-0 lead after Gordon hooked up with Devon Hawkins for a 6-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter. South River quickly responded with a 49-yard touchdown strike from Connor Cox to Eric Young. But after that, Arundel owned all the scoring, going up 14-6 after a Blake Thornton ran back the ensuing kickoff 95 yards. Tyler Young also added a touchdown with a 43-yard punt …
Local rivals hit the field in Edgewater, with varsity games kicking off a 6:30 p.m.
Last September, the South River High football team put a scare into rival Arundel, losing 31-30 after failing to pull off a two-point conversion in the final seconds. The Seahawks will look to avenge that loss as they host the Wildcats in Edgewater on Friday night. Varsity kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. South River (2-1) is coming off a 28-24 loss to Broadneck, and will need the win to avoid falling behind in the county standings. Arundel, meanwhile, has looked impressive in its 3-0 start. On the offensive side, the Wildcats have enjoyed solid performances from quarterbacks Cooper Hibbs and Jack Gordon as well as wideout Tyler Young. (Arundel's other big deep threat, Aaron Lewis-Cenales, may be out of Friday's game with a concussion…
