PASCACK VALLEY—The Pascack Valley football team earned its second shutout of the season with a dominant 42-0 victory over Paramus. Now at 5-1, the Panthers’ offense continues to impress, having scored 90 points in their last two games while allowing only 14.
Senior running back Kevin Regula (#25) led the rushing attack with 111 yards on 13 carries, including three touchdowns. The Panthers totaled 230 rushing yards, with contributions from junior running back Kai Smith (#28), who added two touchdowns, and junior quarterback Adam Shaw (#10), who ran for one and threw for 152 yards on 10-of-15 passing.
On defense, Pascack Valley remained impenetrable. Senior linebacker Dante Ricardi (#51) and junior defensive back Kai Smith (#28) led with nine tackles each, while junior linebacker Nick Lamparillo (#44) added eight.
The Spartans’ passing game was stifled with interceptions by senior defensive back Michael Fronzaglia (#4), junior defensive back Marc Dellaquila (#16), and junior defensive back Michael Colletti (#2).
Insult to injury: the loss prolonged the Spartans’ losing streak. At 1-6, they limped to a home game against Dumont on Friday, after press time.
The Panthers head into a bye week before hosting River Dell at home on Friday, Oct. 18 at 6 p.m.
