Half Hills East didn't just advance in the Suffolk County playoff bracket, but this year's team will go down in the Hills East history books.

With the RedHawks 48-0 dismantling of Smithtown West this weekend they became the first team ever to get to a county championship game in the schools history.

The Hawks wasted little time setting the tone as they opened up a 41 point halftime lead and the celebration was on after that.

Quarterback Nick Sevilla threw for over 150 yards in the win and had five passing touchdowns. He was joined by running back Daniel White who ran for 150 yards and two touchdowns and wide out Tyler Sanders caught two TD passes.

The RedHawks will now take on the #1 seed in East Islip this weekend at Stony Brook. This will be a rematch and a chance at redemption for the Hawks who dropped a game this season to East Islip 33-14.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
