The St. Anthony football team is off to a hot start with a 3-1 overall record, second-best in the city of Long Beach. The Saints have two non league games left this year, and the first is tonight at Clark Field for Thursday Night Lights at 7pm against Brentwood.
Brentwood is 2-2 and will see a motivated Saints team coming off a close win on the road against Salesian. The Saints’ power rushing attack will be the key tonight as they look to chew up yardage and lock and improve to 4-1 ahead of next week’s non league finale against Desert.
