IMG Academy edge out Paramus Catholic 28-20

IMG Academy had one of its toughest games of the season when it hosted New Jersey’s Paramus Catholic on October 23.  The Ascenders, however, did not falter, taking a tight 28-20 victory over Paramus.

Taking an early jump on IMG, the Paladins broke out to a 13-7 advantage in the first quarter.  After IMG scored the only touchdown of the second, the Ascenders took a 14-13 lead into halftime.

The third quarter was the deciding factor as IMG found the endzone twice while managing to keep Paramus off of the score broad.  Paramus scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter, but could not catch up to IMG.

Senior Tony Jones carried the ball 12 times for 73 yards and two touchdowns.  Shea Patterson completed 7-of-16 passes for 189 yards a touchdown, but also tossed two interceptions.

This tough game for the Ascenders proved yet again that they can win against talented opponents.  When momentum swung to Paramus, IMG kept calm to stymie the Paladins attack.  When the Ascenders had an opportunity to score, they made sure that they found the endzone.

Now 7-0, IMG Academy only has two games remaining in the regular season.  Currently,  the Ascenders sit at 11th in the DigitalSports National Football Rankings.

Next on the Ascenders’ list, IMG hosts Eastern Christian Academy on October 30.  Kickoff is at 7:00pm.
