Last Friday, JFK’s varsity Cougars won against Hiram Johnson with a final score of 44-0.

Our senior quarterback, Earl Averette, got a passer rating of 141.1, a well above average performance. He also passed to Avery Runner 6 times, getting 112 yards and 2 touchdowns. Coach Costa believes their record of 5-2 in the league will “definitely get [the football team] in the playoffs,” and, “if we win our next games we will be 8-2 and that will get us a home game in the playoffs.”

Austin Louie, one of the team’s linemen, says that they might be on top of the Metro League over the next couple of years and “the program has a good future.” It will be interesting to see whether or not Kennedy fulfills that statement, but one thing is for sure: the coach says that Kennedy has a, “loaded roster of talent.”
