I am surprised by the ACC score. Was that expected?
I was a little surprised, just on conference affiliation. But ACC wasn’t very good this year - they had three huge transfers out that took some of their best players off the roster - a FBS commit to St. Frances Academy in Maryland, an all state wide receiver to a school in NJ, and their quarterback and initially went to St. Frances too, then transferred back home to Liberty before school started. They still have Maryland commit Braheem Battles on the lines, but the rest of the high end talent left.

Haverford 42-0 over Qtown at half. Haverford is good but consider me very surprised at what I’m seeing from Quakertown. Completely non competitive on defensive side of ball.

They’ve really struggled to stop the run in big games. West, GV, etc…

Emmaus 35 Nazareth 0 - FINAL
Green Hornets on fire right now. Nazareth not anywhere near as sharp on offense this week, and absolutely cannot stop the run.

Easton 42 Stroudsburg 7
Game is in mercy rule with under 4 minutes left. Sets up Easton-Emmaus next week. Rematch of OT game from week 5.

Freedom 38 Northampton 15 - FINAL
Parkland 27 Liberty 9 - FINAL
Freedom and Parkland will meet in the playoffs again - Parkland beat Freedom in the 2016, 2017, and 2022 D11 finals, and the 2002 and 2019 semis, while Freedom’s like postseason win over Parkland the 2018 semifinal. Freedom won this match up comfortably in the regular season.


4A
Northwestern Lehigh 33 Saucon Valley 12 - 8 minutes left
Notre Dame 20 North Schuylkill 17
NS at the ND 5 with 22 seconds left. Hold onto your hats there

North Schuylkill kicks a field goal as time expired and ND-NS goes to overtime.
After a ND field goal in the first OT, North Schuylkill walks it off with a 10 yard QB keeper on their first play. 26-23 (OT) final and Notre Dame cannot solve their North Schuylkill problem.
 
PW up 19-0 on Souderton. Souderton has thrown 3 picks in the first half.

So true. Six interceptions (??) and the pick six with seconds on the 2nd quarter clock.

Yikes!

Slow start, missed tackles and too many errant passes.

Overall it was very poor showing.

Lots of highlights from these games on the BIG Ticket. That pick 6 by OJR could not have gone any worse for Neshaminy.

The North Schuylkill game was crazy, great win for them.
