The longest winning streak for the team this year was three games and they have outscored their last three opponents 91-21.
The Stallions have a talented core of wide receivers which consists of John Dumore, Micangelo Joseph, Jamari Laster, Conner Hindsley and Luke Sharkley to make pass receptions from quarterback Ryan Rizk. Their primary rushing threat is running back Dallis Small.
Chaminade-Madonna(7-3) made it to the Class 3A championship game in 2016 and lost to Trinity Christian Academy. After losing two of their first three games of the regular season against Miami Central and Plantation American Heritage, the Lions won their next six consecutive games. They including victories over Piper, Blanche Ely, Booker T. Washington, Doral Academy, Flanagan and University School. They have averaged 45 points in their six games and outscored their opponents 275-39.
The main emphasis of the Lions offense running back Shaun Shivers who can gain yardage deep into the secondary. Wide receivers Xavier Williams, Marvin Alexander, Marlin Mayo and Logan Giordano look to catch the ball downfield from quarterback Daelen Menard.
