Oct. 20, 2026: The fall sports season is winding down, and Bronxville teams are finishing strong as they prepare for the postseason. The football team continued its winning streak with an impressive victory over Pleasantville on Saturday, the cross country teams turned in strong performances at the Section 1 Coaches Invitational, and both the boys’ and girls’ soccer teams finished the regular season with three consecutive shutouts. With sectional playoffs starting for two teams this weekend, the Broncos are looking to carry that momentum into the postseason.

Football

The Bronxville football team improved its record to 5-1 on Saturday with a convincing 35-7 win over Pleasantville. The Broncos entered the game having dominated their opponents in recent weeks, and their strong play continued against the Panthers, who were undefeated in Section 1 play before facing Bronxville.

The Broncos got off to a fast start when Marco Pirelli scored on their first possession of the game.  Bronxville added another touchdown on their next possession when Liam Marcus scored, and Theo McMurray ran for a third touchdown in the second quarter, giving Bronxville a commanding 21-0 lead at halftime.

The Broncos continued to dominate in the second half. Marcus broke free for an 80-yard touchdown run to extend the lead to 28-0, and Will Waterstone added Bronxville's final touchdown in the fourth quarter.

The Bronxville defense was equally impressive, holding Pleasantville scoreless until the third quarter and limiting the Panthers' opportunities throughout the game.

The Broncos will be on the road Saturday for their final game of the regular season against Haldane(3-3).
