Yes, Carmel can play defense.
Don't be mislead by the fact that the defense has given up 48 points in its first two games, as 28 have come in the fourth quarter when the games have been in hand.
Why opponents don't have a defensive back shadow Andrew Melendrez is a mystery. All he's done is catch seven touchdown passes for the MTAL pre-season favorites — in two games.
What Carmel should be concerned about is the running game. While it had its moments when it helped chew up five minutes of the clock between the third and fourth quarters, the ground game averaged just 2.9 yards on 36 touches.
