Good morning, Sports fans! It’s your buddy Davey Mac here and we’ve got a big-time Sports Report for ya this morning! We’ve got the football, basketball, hockey, and even baseball! So lets’ not dilly-dally! Let’s get to the Sports!
And we’re starting with football where the Giants beat the Patriots yesterday…10 to 7…to get their second win in a row. Making his first career start at MetLife Stadium only miles from where he grew up, Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito threw for 191 yards, a touchdown, and no interceptions. Good day for the local boy!

Tommy was born in Livingston and grew up in Cedar Grove. He attended Don Bosco High School (which has had an excellent football program for decades). Tommy then went on to play for Syracuse in college.

The Patriots did have a chance to tie the game with a 35-yard field goal with just seconds remaining…but it was missed wide left. And the Giants improve to 4 and 8. So, Tommy got back-to-back wins as Giants quarterback just a short drive from where he grew up. That’s pretty awesome. Now on to the rest of the Scoreboard!
