Syracuse Strong: Mother Nature intervenes again in Week 2 win vs Raiders

After a Week 1 shortened 26-6 victory for the Syracuse Strong, the players seemed ready to put in a full effort in Week 2.

Last week, the Strong quickly got off to a big lead and dominated throughout. Week 2 didn’t start off the same.

After losing the coin toss, the East Penn Raiders deferred to the second half, and Syracuse had their first crack on offense.

It was an awkward first series and it resulted in an unusual site, the Strong having to punt the football. That’s where Syracuse encountered their first adversity of the season.
