SCOUTING ASSUMPTION
Assumption tied for conference regular-season title with Bentley University this season. The Greyhounds dropped its season opener at Kutztown and then rattled off seven straight wins before a 20-17 setback against Bentley last week left the two schools tied for first place in the final league standings. The Falcons were declared the conference champion by virtue of its head-to-head victory over the Greyhounds last Saturday.
 
Assumption brings the Northeast10's top offense into Farrell Stadium on Saturday. The Greyhounds average scoring 32 points per game and just over 389 yards of total offense per contest on the strength of the NE10's top ranked passing attack. Assumption averages 225.9 yards per game through the air. The Greyhound's ground game ranks second in the conference at 164 yards per game.
 
Greyhounds QB, Jay Kastantin, leads the loop in passing. He completes 61.9 percent of his passes and has 15 TD strikes to five interceptions. His top target, Connor Smith, has 64 receptions and ranks second in the league in yards receiving with 647. He is the deep threat that will stretch the defense.
 
Defensively, Assumption only averages allowing its opponents 20 points per game. That is second in the NE10. However, the Greyhounds are in the middle of the pack in both total defense, averaging 331 total yards of offense allowed, and rushing defense. Where Assumption excels is in the passing game. Its' passing defense ranks third in the NE10. Linebacker Owen Fitzgerald ranks second in the conference in tackles with 101 stops. Meanwhile DE, Tindell Frick, leads the league in sacks (9.5) and is second in tackles for a loss (12.5). Fitzgerald has 10.5 TFL.

SETTING THE STAGE FOR WEST CHESTER
West Chester brings the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference's (PSAC) fourth-ranked defense into its season finale. That unit is bolstered by the second-ranked pass defense which is second in the PSAC in interceptions with 12. Connor Noble ranks fifth in the league in tackles with 90 stops on the year. He also has three QB hurries, two passes defensed, including one interception, and has forced a fumble on the year. Meanwhile, safety Jamir Reyes, and cornerback, Kaleb Brown, rank tied for fourth in the league in interceptions with three each.
 
Offensively, everything depends on the health of quarterback, Cooper Jordan, He is an electric double-threat at the QB position. He ranks 13th in the PSAC in rushing yards and 11th in the loop in passing yards. He led the PSAC in rushing and ranked among the top four in passing earlier this year, before injuries slowed him down and forced him to miss three games. Still, he has thrown 14 TD passes against just five interceptions. The emergence of wide receivers Matt Iuvara and Dylan McKenzie have helped the Golden Rams' pass attack tremendously in the second half of the season.
 
A PEAK AT THE RECORD BOOKS 
Senior MLB, Connor Noble, is also moving up the school's chart in career tackles. Noble has 313 total tackles in three years and ranks ninth all-time. He is four tackles shy of moving into seventh place on that list. Noble also moved into third place on the school's all-time chart for assisted tackles becoming just the third player to register over 200 assisted stops in a career.
 
Meanwhile, senior QB, Cooper Jordan, is currently 15th on the school's all-time rushing chart with 2,386 career rushing yards. He also stands eighth all-time in passing yards with 5,730 passing yards to his credit. His 45 career TD passes ranks 9th all-time.
 
ON THE SIDELINES 
West Chester head coach Duke Greco will go for his 100th career coaching victory overall on Saturday against Assumption. He racked up 91 of those victories over a 10-year span at Delaware Valley and has the other seven in two years at West Chester.
 
Assumption's Andy McKenzie is in his eighth season at the school and owns a record of 43-27 (.614) in that stretch. He took the Greyhounds to the NCAA II Playoffs in 2022 with an 8-3 record and is trying to get his charges back to the postseason again this year.
