🔥 St. Joseph’s Prep came into Brentwood and left with a 31-23 road win over Brentwood Academy in a matchup loaded with high-level talent.

From the opening kick, this game felt like a battle between two programs with serious playmakers on both sides. Masiia Acrey, Brandon Lockley Jr., Max Rogers and Jett Harrison helped headline a talented St. Joseph’s Prep group that stayed composed and capitalized when opportunities came.

For Brentwood Academy, Crews Jenkins, Kesean Bowman, Kenneth Simon II and Larry Sanders II were among the featured names in a game where BA showed flashes, but turnovers and missed opportunities became difficult to overcome.

The TTS crew breaks down how execution, discipline, turnovers, focus and second-half adjustments shaped the outcome. In a game filled with college-level talent, the difference came down to who handled the critical moments better — and St. Joseph’s Prep did enough to leave Tennessee with the win.

🏈 We also get into Smyrna’s win over Oakland, BGA’s continued push at the top of the Middle Tennessee rankings, standout performances, upcoming matchups and what these results mean moving forward.
