VSN is not your typical No. 8 seed

Valley Stream North opened with a 51-34 win over East Rockaway/West Hempstead before nearly upsetting Floral Park in a 34-28 loss in Week 2.

Adebayo Kayode and Justin Gangi combined for 288 rushing yards and three touchdowns in the loss. Eddy Turcios has led the offensive line.

“They’re looking to prove that Valley Stream North is for real,” coach Mike Paolillo said.
