High School Football in the News

Brophy wins Sollenberger Classic

Phoenix Brophy Prep's offense was not in championship form Saturday night, but its defense was, helping to open the season with a 16-6 victory over Las Vegas Bishop Gorman in the Sollenberger Classic at University of Phoenix Stadium.

It was a battle of state champions from the top classifications in Arizona and Nevada, Brophy in Class 5A Division I (12-2 record) and Bishop Gorman in Class 4A (14-0), respectively.

The only defensive breakdown for Brophy, which has won two titles in the past three years, was a 79-yard touchdown run by Bishop Gorman QB John Huber in the first quarter. Brophy limited Bishop Gorman to 125 total yards.

After tight end A.J. Steimel caught an 8-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Beau Maggi with less than a minute left in the game for Brophy, linebacker Brandon Bayardi sealed the outcome with an interception at the Bishop Gorman 30.

Bayardi, defensive end Trent Murphy (blocked point-after attempt) and linebacker Matt Padilla (key sack with about six minutes left in the game) led the way.

It was a typical opening game in the early going, with the teams trading penalty flags.

Brophy got help midway through the first quarter when the Bishop Gorman long snapper sent the ball sailing over the punter's head and Brophy gained possession at the Bishop Gorman 29.

Brophy took the lead five plays later when Max Leonesio took a short pitch, moved to his left, cut back against the grain a bit and barely got into the end zone. Alex Groutte's extra-point kick made it 7-0 with 4:56 left in the first.

Bishop Gorman cut the deficit to a point when Huber slipped outside to the left, moved down the sideline in front of his own bench and outran the defense for a touchdown.

Late in the first half, with the ball at its 1, Bishop Gorman took a safety on fourth and long to make it 9-6.

Any hopes of expanding the lead before halftime evaporated for Brophy on its possession after the safety.

Linebacker Trevor Stuart intercepted a pass by Maggi and returned it to the Bishop Gorman 40 with 2:11 left in the half.

Brophy gets two weeks off before returning to action Sept. 5 at Chandler Hamilton.
