Siegel quarterback Thomas Santel, known to Stars fans as “Tommy Football,” connected on 11-of-18 passes for 183 yards and 2 touchdowns. He also had a 21-yard touchdown.
Despite the three scores, the Red Raider defense played well against a team that came in averaging 51 points per game.
Tailback Caiden Martin carried the ball 22 times for 70 yards, and he caught 4 passes. Martin is the Red Raider punter. He also plays defensive back, where he made multiple tackles in the game, and he even lined up a few times at quarterback against Siegel. Martin was named the Rooster 101.5.
