Key Player Matchups
QB Ryan Stevens (Hopkins) vs. Susquehanna Secondary
Stevens’ ability to stretch the field vertically will test a River Hawks defense that thrives on discipline.
RB Malik Johnson (Hopkins) vs. Susquehanna Front Seven
If active, Johnson’s downhill running could help Hopkins control tempo.
QB Ethan Carr (Susquehanna) vs. Hopkins Pass Rush
Carr has been efficient and explosive; Hopkins must pressure him to avoid another multi-TD outing.
WR Chris Lee (Susquehanna) vs. Hopkins Corners
If cleared, Lee is Carr’s top target; Hopkins will likely shade coverage his way.
