In a stunning display of talent, heart, and teamwork, the JPII Golden Warriors middle school football team capped off an undefeated and unblemished season with a dominant victory in their final game, 44-18 over the HHP Dolphins. From the very first snap, the Warriors left no doubt that they were in control, scoring at will and shutting down their opponents on defense.
Jadon Inabinett set the tone with an incredible 4 carries for 123 yards and 4 touchdowns (you heard that right, come see this incredible young man), blazing through the defense on every touch. JJ Hall added 10 rushing yards on 2 carries, while Leiland Fripp impressed with 3 receptions for 73 yards, 1 rush for 3 yards, and a two-point conversion catch from QB Matt Termini. Termini, showing his versatility, completed 5 passes for 116 yards and took one to the end zone himself on a 22-yard rushing touchdown.
Key contributions came from all over the roster. Zach Mulieri snagged an 18-yard reception, Adam D’Orazio added 7 rushing yards and 2 tackles, and Nick Kessinger contributed 2 tackles and ran in a 6-yard touchdown. Sam Marcinkoski caught a pass for 25 yards, while Micah Cano and Nathan Milligan anchored the defense with solid tackles, and Carter Whiteside delivered too many tackles to count along with a 24-yard rush. Defensive standouts like Isaac Borgan delivered key tackles for loss, and Ryan Fox powered both lines, recovering a fumble and adding a two-point conversion that electrified the field. The crowd erupted when fan-favorite Andres Dominguez broke into the end zone with his own two-point conversion, and Russell Spencer closed out with another two-point effort.
This season, the Golden Warriors stood undefeated, overcoming top teams in the Columbia and Charleston regions and dominating the Lowcountry. With a perfect record, they’ve cemented their legacy as the best in the region, showing depth, grit, and readiness to return with even more power next season. It was an incredible end to a remarkable year, and we couldn’t be prouder of our JPII Warriors!
