No. 9 Marist at No. 1 Mount Carmel, 7:30 p.m. Friday

It’s the first week of conference play in the powerful CCL/ESCC Blue, which means plenty of playoff-type atmosphere. Dermot Smyth, a starting wide receiver for Marist last season, is settling in well at quarterback with 538 passing yards, a 67% completion rate and three touchdowns to go along with 126 rushing yards and two TDs. Defensive back John Nestor (Iowa), defensive lineman Jamel Howard (Wisconsin) and receiver Ryan Sims (Miami, Ohio) also are impact players for the RedHawks (2-1). Mount Carmel (3-0) has outscored St. Rita, Phillips and Notre Dame by a combined 121-3. Quarterback Blainey Dowling, tight end Parker Startz, receiver Denny Furlong and running back Darrion Dupree are among the playmakers for the Caravan offense. Asher Tomaszewski (Kansas State) and Danny Novickas (Ohio) lead the defense.
