ALBANY — There are whispers that the Albany football team is fielding its best product in several years this season. And the Lions did very little to shed doubt on that rumor on Friday with a 33-6 win over previously unbeaten Santo in the Big Country Preps Game of the Week. 

Jaheim Newton rushed for 184 yards and two touchdowns and Cole Chapman threw for 114 yards and another score to lead Albany (8-0, 3-0 District 8-2A Division II), which clinched the district title with the win.
