Key Player Matchups
QB Ryan Sedgwick (Stevenson) vs. Alvernia Secondary
Sedgwick’s ability to stretch the field vertically will test Alvernia’s defensive backs.
RB Brandon Walker (Stevenson) vs. Alvernia Front Seven
If active, Walker’s downhill running could help Stevenson control tempo.
QB Dante Perri (Alvernia) vs. Stevenson Pass Rush
Perri has been efficient but must avoid turnovers against Stevenson’s aggressive front.
WR Chris Lee (Alvernia) vs. Stevenson Corners
If cleared, Lee is Perri’s top target; Stevenson will likely shade coverage his way.
