The 1987 Varsity Football seasaon had its ups and downs. The Brothers opened the year with a big win over East Syracuse- Minoa. By the third week the Brothers were 2-1 with their only loss to State ranked Homer. A t this point in the season the youth and inexperience combined with injuries to key players began to take its toll on the team ’s performance.
The Brothers, because o f these factors, lost their five games. This was a major blow to the morale ofthefootballprogram. Even though the team as a whole had a disappointing season, the Brothers hadfive All-League selections plus a number of honorable mentions.
Chris Nelson and John Haas combined to be one of the league’s leading passing combinations, while captains, Joe Ador­ nato and Ken Fifield led the young offen­ sive and defensive lines. Other key players included running backs Peter Caroli, Dar­ ryl Gladden and Todd Eudell and linemen Ed Diamantis, Reggie Zayas, Tom Quilter and John Giamartino.
With more than 20 Juniors returning, the Brothers are hoping to make a Dome appearance in Section HI playoffs in 1988.
