Mike Collodi has preached a fast, physical style of play since he began his coaching tenure at Elizabeth Forward in 2015.
And it’s clear his message resonates with his players.
The Warriors put Collodi’s two-word mantra into effect Friday night, ending their two-game losing streak with a 24-0 victory over Mt. Pleasant in Big East Conference play at Warriors Stadium.
EF (5-2, 4-2), which entered the game having suffered back-to-back road losses at Derry Area and North Catholic, used a stellar defensive effort to smother the Vikings (3-5, 2-4), limiting them to 109 total yards.
The Warriors’ defense also forced a pair of turnovers, turning both into second-half points.
