There was a four-point loss in the first week of the season, suggesting Broadmoor was primed to end the streak.
Thanks to the play of junior middle linebacker Mark Terrio, the Buccaneers extinguished a 26-game losing streak – one that dated to the 2019 season.
Broadmoor took a 8-0 lead in the first quarter and Terrio capped a standout performance with a 24-yard interception return for a touchdown with 24 seconds left in a 14-0 victory over arch-rival Tara.
“It’s definitely big for our confidence,” said Broadmoor first-year football coach Yasin Sarah said. “It’s big for the school and shows everybody that we are moving in the right direction.”
Terrio led Broadmoor with 10 tackles and added two sacks and was selected the Tiger Rag Magazine Shining Star of the Week.
“Mark moved to Mike the past couple of weeks and he’s starting to learn that position,” Sarah said. “It’s less about coverage and more about filling and plugging up the hole, and just being there as the run stopper.”
Broadmoor maintained a one-score advantage, courtesy of Tydarion Stephens’ 10-yard run, and a defense that yielded 97 total yards and forced seven turnovers.
The Buccaneers provided two key interceptions in the fourth quarter, the first by Kenneth Hawkins after Tara had first-and-goal at the 8. The other came from Terrio to put the game away and helped the Buccaneers celebrate once again.
“I challenged the defense to score some points,” Sarah said. “We’ve got a young team with only five seniors. Mark stepped up, like a lot of our players, because he’s one of our more experience guys. This win shows the kid the improvement.”
