Key Match Highlights & Tactical Analysis
Pequita was the engine behind Enfield’s offensive surge, finishing with a dominant 169 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 25 carries. His initial 73-yard score gave Enfield an early 7-0 lead, establishing the tone for a physical ground game that overwhelmed the Berlin defense. Siana complemented the rushing attack with efficient aerial play, completing four of eight passes for 129 yards and a touchdown, including a 65-yard strike to Steph Warton-Mohammed that extended the Enfield lead to 14-7.
The Enfield defense played a crucial role in protecting the slim margin, with linebacker Joel Budd recording six tackles, including two for loss, while Grant Lyver and Cam Trotta added six and seven tackles respectively. Despite Berlin’s resilience, which saw them tie the game at 14-14 before Enfield retook the lead, the Wolves’ defensive pressure forced critical errors in the final minutes. This victory solidifies Enfield’s position in the CCC standings, while Berlin faces a difficult task in the coming weeks to recover from this late-game collapse.
