BIRMINGHAM -- The John Carroll Catholic High School football team is 3-1 on the season for the first time since 2009.
Those types of stats are being thrown around frequently, because the Cavaliers are winning more often now under second-year coach Will Mara than they have in quite some time.
That trend continued on Friday night, as John Carroll beat Cordova 28-0 in a Class 5A, Region 5 showdown.
With the win, John Carroll improved to 3-1 on the year and 2-0 in region play. It was the second shutout the Cavs have pitched on defense as well.
The challenge will be tough next week, as John Carroll hits the road to play Fairfield in another region contest.
