The Londonderry High School football team put together a dominant performance on both sides of the field at Lancer Park Friday night, Oct. 9, scoring a dominant 26-points in the opening quarter and went on to a 47-0 shutout of Alvirne High School.

The Lancers finished with 349-yards of total offense, including 202 passing yards and 147 rushing yards, while holding the Broncos to just 142-yards.

The home squad scored on all but one offensive drive and also had a pick-six on the defensive side.

Londonderry wasted little time getting on the scoreboard. It took just six plays for senior Calan Murphy to open the scoring with a two-yard touchdown run, followed by an unsuccessful two-point conversion.

Senior QB Sully Daron completed a seven-yard pass to fellow senior Davis Magarian for the second score of the evening, giving the Lancers a 12-0 lead at 5:41 in the first.

Magarian followed that up with an interception on defense to put his team at the three-yard line and set up for the third touchdown of the quarter at 4:31.

Senior Matt Cocci added a three-yard touchdown run on the first play of the following drive and senior Broch St. Gelais ran the ball in from the six for the first successful two-point conversion of the night.

Following another three-and-out forced by the defense, Dante Fabiano made it 26-0 with a six-yard scoring run. Fabiano was set up by 26- and 24-yard Daron passes allowing LHS to score in just four plays.

The Lancers added to their lead in the second quarter when Daron connected with Jackson Rao for a touchdown.

Sophomore kicker Sawyer LaBonte booted in the extra-point to make it 33-0.

After the half, Londonderry’s defense also got into the scoring action in the third quarter. Senior Tommy Zyra intercepted an Alvirne pass and returned it 89-yards for a touchdown. LaBonte added the extra point, extending the lead to 40-0.

The Lancers capped the scoring in the fourth quarter when junior QB Owen Gray handed the ball to sophomore Jake Santosuosso, who broke free for a 27-yard touchdown run. LaBonte’s extra point completed the 47-0 victory.

Daron completed 11 of 17 passes for 170 yards and two touchdowns. Rao led the Lancers’ receivers with 69 yards, while Magarian had three catches for 37 yards and a touchdown. Owen Crafts added 44 receiving yards.

On the ground, Gray gained 49 yards on his lone carry, while Murphy finished with 25 rushing yards and a touchdown. Santosuosso added 27-yards and a score.

Defensively, Londonderry recorded two sacks and intercepted two passes.

Zyra’s interception return provided the game’s only defensive touchdown.

The Lancers limited Alvirne to 46 passing yards and 96 rushing yards.

The Broncos completed five of 16 passes and threw two interceptions.

LaBonte converted all three of his extra-point attempts, and St. Gelais added a two-point conversion with the victory, LHS improved to 5-1 and put themselves in third place in the Division I standings, behind Pinkerton and Windham. All three are tied with the 5-1 record, but Londonderry trails in points.

Londonderry will host Central Catholic on Friday, Oct 16 followed by another home game on Friday, Oct. 23 against Merrimack. Both games are scheduled to start at 7 p.m.
