Assistant coach Graham Jarrott huddles with several of his players on offense following Jesuit’s 56-14 win over Holy Cross on Friday, October 10. These Blue Jays have been preparing all week for their game against Archbishop Shaw on Saturday, October 18. The Jays and the Eagles kick off at 2 p.m. at Hoss Memtsas Stadium on the West Bank. From left are seniors Foster Moreau (tight end, 82) and Emerson Wenzel (tackle, 79), sophomore Corey Dublin (guard, 74), Coach Jarrott, junior John Sewell (center, 60), junior Austin Reed (guard, 72), and seniors Brad Gaudet (tackle, 65), Jeff White (tackle, 64), and Alex Rabalais (tight end, 30).

Jesuit and Archbishop Shaw will meet for the 44th time on Saturday, October 18 at Hoss Memtsas Stadium on the West Bank. Kickoff is 2 p.m.

A sellout crowd is expected to fill the stands to watch the East and West Bank rivals go after each other. Shaw leads the series 18-25-0. Last year the Jays defeated the Eagles, 24-17, in a thrilling game.

Jesuit brings a 5-1 record into the fray against Shaw (4-2).

Interestingly, each team last week played games that ended in the exact same score: 56-14.

The Jays walloped the Tigers of Holy Cross by that score in the Great American Rivalry game, while the Eagles suffered a lancing by the Raiders of Rummel.

Students will be admitted to the Jesuit-Shaw game with their IDs. Tickets at the gate cost $8.
