--St. Louis Park -- Jordan Young- This senior defensive back/wide receiver can get it done on both sides of the field.  On the defensive side of the ball, Young already has 12 tackles, and 1 interception.  The offensive side of the ball is impressive as well, where Young is averaging 4 catches a game and has already found the end zone once.

 

ORIOLES WIN IF...

Head coach Vince Varpness can dial up another unbeatable game plan.  So far the Orioles are 2-0 and look to go 3-0 against the much smaller Hawks team.

 

HAWKS WIN IF…

They can get their quick running back Jake Engnell rolling early.  Engnell has been one of their best surprises this season.
