The team (0-5) lost to #19 Nassau Community College (5-1), 21-14, on Saturday evening.
The Vikings fell behind 14-0 late in the second quarter, but a two-yard touchdown by Nathaniel Robinson (Saratoga Springs/Saratoga) pulled the Vikings within seven. Hudson Valley tied the score at 14 after a 38 yard touchdown run by C.J. Jones (Woodbridge/Baltimore, MD).
A late third quarter touchdown by Nassau put them up 21-14 heading into the fourth quarter. The Vikings caught some bad luck when C.J. Jones caught a pass in the flats running it all the way down to the Nassau two yard line when he fumbled and the ball went out of bounds in the endzone resulting in a touchback and Nassau regained possession at their 20 yard line. The Vikings held strong, but were not able to get in the endzone and lost a very tight game 21-14
The Vikings have off the weekend, but will host Louisburg on Saturday, Oct. 22 at noon.
