Their roster might be thin.

But Scott Faer will never let Marshall give up.

In their third chance of avenging a loss from the week before (this season), the Eagles showed heart and resiliency in Friday’s 58-20 Mission Valley League victory over Gabrielino.

Jonathon Frimpong was the star of the game.

Frimpong rushed for just over 200 yards, and had four TD runs.

Marshall (5-3 overall, 2-2 in league) still has a shot at a playoff berth.

The Eagles finish at South El Monte next Friday and then wrap up the regular season Oct. 4 when they host Rosemead.

“We controlled the line of scrimmage,” Faer said. “We went with our motto: ‘three yards and a cloud of dust.’ They played so inspired and put together our best game in the last two years. Offense, defense and special teams were all great tonight.”
