By Kevin Iyer ·
Revere High junior running back Reda Atoui rushed for more than 200 yards and scored four touchdowns as the Patriots defeated Malden High School 52-8 on Tuesday at Harry Della Russo Stadium. Atoui’s performance included a 99-yard touchdown run, a new school record. The result marked Revere’s third consecutive victory.
Head coach Lou Cicatelli praised Atoui’s effort, noting the 99-yard score came off a trap play. Cicatelli called it something else and said the player is having an amazing junior season. Atoui now has 787 rushing yards for the season. He needs 213 more yards to reach the 1,000-yard milestone. Revere plays North Reading on Thursday and Winthrop on Thanksgiving.
Three other Revere players scored touchdowns in the game. Anthony Pelatere ran 45 yards for a score. Joseph Angiulo and Amare Lassegue also added to the point total. Silvio Neto led the offensive and defensive lines in a strong team effort.
The win improved Revere’s record to 5-4. Cicatelli noted that the team often starts the season slowly but has secured most of its wins in the second half of recent years. The coach said the team is playing really well and that he is proud of the players.
Revere will attempt to build on this momentum in its next two games. The schedule concludes with a Thanksgiving matchup against Winthrop. Atoui’s Boston Globe Star of the Week recognition followed his standout performance against Malden.
