MANSFIELD – Mountaineer sprint football will face its first road test of the season when it travels to Philadelphia to take on CSFL South Division rival Chestnut Hill on Friday, Sept. 21.
 
Kick-off is set for 7 p.m. with live video and live stats provided by Chestnut Hill available at GoMounties.com.
 
Mansfield fell to Penn 54-21 in its season-opener at Karl Van Norman Field this past Saturday. Big plays by Quinn Henry and Saville Pope gave the Mounties an early lead, but Penn's offense proved to be too powerful.
 
Quarterback Adam Hutchison completed 7-of-14 passes for 157 yards and two touchdowns with Pope hauling in two passes for 104 yards. Dajuan Buie and Bryton Barna led the Mountaineer defense with 13 tackles each and Barna had a pair of blocked kicks.
 
Chestnut Hill also faltered last week, dropping a 45-7 final to Army West Point at home despite outgaining the Black Knights in total offense 341 to 313.
 
The Griffins quarterback Michael Marino went 11-32 passing for 173 yards, a touchdown and three interceptions. Xavier Thompson led the rushing attack with 46 yards.
 
Mansfield holds a 2-1 series lead against Chestnut Hill since the Griffins joined the CSFL in 2015. The Mountaineers won the first two meetings in Philadelphia before falling 30-18 last year in Mansfield.
 
Chestnut Hill is led by former Mountaineer assistant coach Mike Pearson.
 
After Friday's game, Mansfield continues a three-game road trip with games at Navy and Post.
