Fox 8 Friday Night Touchdown: Nanticoke Area's Zack Fox Breaks School Record

Friday night was a special one for Nanticoke Area's football team as they dominated Hanover Area in a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2 game, winning 54-0. The Trojans' senior running back, Zack Fox, made history by breaking the school record for most career rushing yards. With his impressive performance, Fox cemented his status as one of the best running backs in the area.

Fox's incredible night started early, as he scored two first-quarter touchdowns and three rushing two-point conversions. He continued to dominate on the field, helping build Nanticoke Area's lead to 45-0 with just over four minutes left until halftime. In that quarter alone, Fox rushed for 156 yards on 10 carries, surpassing his previous personal best.

The highlight of Fox's night came in the second quarter when he broke the school record with a 56-yard touchdown run. This impressive feat not only solidified his position as Nanticoke Area's all-time leading rusher but also showed the world what this talented player is capable of.

Fox's success on the field can be attributed to the strong blocking provided by fullbacks Steve Armstrong and Ryan Wiaterowski, who often led his runs with nearly 500 pounds of force. This powerful combination allowed Fox to make big plays and leave defenders in his dust.

Nanticoke Area coach Ron Bruza praised his team's performance, saying, 'We just dialed it in.' The Trojans' victory not only marked a significant milestone for Fox but also secured their spot in the District 2 Class 4A quarterfinals next weekend.

As Fox reflects on his achievement, he can't help but feel grateful. 'I never imagined it, but it feels great,' he said of breaking the school record. With this impressive performance under his belt, Fox is sure to continue making waves in the world of high school football.
