Seabreeze sophomore Rani Gupta threw two touchdown passes in her first varsity game to help lead the Sandcrabs to a 26-6 victory at Matanzas on Tuesday, Feb. 18, in both teams' season opener.
"Rani Gupta will be our next star, I think," Seabreeze coach Todd Barnes said. "She was our JV quarterback last year."
Camryn Chiumento caught both touchdown passes as the Sandcrabs took a 13-0 halftime lead. Annabel Thistle added two touchdown runs in the second half.
Matanzas senior Aaliyah Jones-Boney scored on a touchdown run in the fourth quarter as the Pirates marched down the field after trailing 26-0.
Jones-Boney, who played most of the game at slot receiver, took over at quarterback on the scoring drive.
"We were trying to give our freshman, Yadielis Morales, some reps at quarterback," Matanzas coach Phillip Haire said. "We wanted to see how she looks against Seabreeze, because Seabreeze is always good."
The Sandcrabs travel to Flagler Palm Coast on Thursday, Feb. 20. Matanzas returns home on Feb. 25 against Taylor.
