Playing physical football on defense and a balanced offensive attack has allowed the Vienna 100-pound American Broncos to amass a 4-0 record. Vienna beat Dulles South 40-12 and Gum Springs 30-0 in the last two highly-anticipated matchups.
Quarterback Colin O’Connor is 9 for 17 on the season, including an 80-yard touchdown pass to David Wallis against Dulles South. Jared Cole has rushed for 326 yards, including 104 yards and three touchdowns against Gum Springs. Michael Indelicarto has added 162 rushing yards for the season. The offensive line is anchored by Jack Taylor at center, with Tanner Hughes, Marvin Coon, Jack Gurley, and Michael McMahon controlling the line of scrimmage.
The defense has been continually sending 11 men to the ball in a bad mood. Joey Murray, Justin Duenkel, and Ryan Moses all registered sacks against Gum Springs. Jacobs Oliver, David Hibbs, and Collin Gardner pounded the quick Gum Springs attack. Shutdown corners Michael Leone (1 sack) and Indelicarto did not allow a pass of more than 7 yards to the outside, preserving the shutout.
The Vienna Broncos are composed of players from Vienna, Great Falls, Reston, Burke and Chantilly.
