SOV’s Devin Mosier leaps for the grab during Friday’s game at Monticello. The Redskins lost 27-14, but managed to do more damage than any other team Monticello has faced so far this year.

Coming into last Friday night’s matchup, Monticello’s defense had been touted as one of, if not the best defenses in the area. And rightfully so.
