The Amity Spartans hosts Stratford’s Bunnell Bulldogs at Amity High School at 7 p.m. for the 2022 season opener.
Bunnell’s Michael Trovarelli scored the first touchdown.
Amity tied the game a short time later.
Trovarelli pulled the Bulldogs ahead 2-1, and then before the end of the first quarter, he struck again making it a 21-7 first quarter crushing blow. But it wasn’t over yet.
With time still on the clock, Amity made a couple of good plays until they lost the ball to the Bulldogs with a punt at the 35 yard line.
There was a lot of back and forth in the last five minutes, for some reason Bunnell pulled Trovarelli from the field in the last 56 seconds of the first quarter.
Trovarelli returned to the field, the Bulldogs made a great play and, you guessed it, Touchdown. 28-7
With two seconds left the Bulldogs suddenly took a knee as teammate Benjamin Papp lay on the field with an injured leg. He made it back to his side of the field and … END of QUARTER.
FIRST QUARTER: BUNNELL 28, AMITY 7
Second Quarter
Trovarelli made his fifth touchdown of the game 35-7. OUCH
The Spartans are reinvigorated, making some advances looking much more determined.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Somewhere along the line I lost the LIVE STREAM Feed and the score was 42-13 Bunnell.
FOURTH QUARTER
Amity’s Johnson makes a touchdown with 5 minutes left… 42-20 Bunnell.
FINAL SCORE BUNNELL 42- AMITY 20
Next week, Amity is AWAY at West Haven.
