Teams meet again in playoff rematch Saturday
The A.C. Vikings again did what they have been doing all year to stun the opposition with long touchdown passes. Quarterback Jarryn McBride connected with his favorite target Dayshawn Reynolds on a 44-yard touchdown run to beat Absegami in a classic shootout of two ranked and evenly matched teams. The Viking players dug out from the impact of Sandy to earn the home field playoff advantage next Saturday. Local Domaneek Hurd Brown paced the Vikings with two touchdowns. Defensive lineman Rob Glanville had a key sack to help gain the victory in another wild scoring Viking win.

To the editor:
I am writing on behalf of myself and Dr. Jill Morrison to express our heartfelt gratitude for all of the assistance we received in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. We were quickly able to relocate our practices without too much disruption after our office was flooded and unusable. We had gracious offers of accommodation from Dr. Dorie Herndon, Century 21, and the Rogges. Andy Solari of Carrier Sothebys was also working very hard, trying to find us temporary office space. Thank you very much to all.
