Weird slate of games this week. Lots of heavy favorites and only one match up of contenders, Easton and Bethlehem Catholic tonight.
Freedom was close early before turning on the jets in a 63-28 win over Emmaus. Freedom scored on all 9 possessions that did not end in kneel downs, making it 13 straight drives with a touchdown for the Patriots. Jared Jenkins set a school record with 426 yards on 25-29 passing. Gabe Caton and Vince Reph both had over 100 yards receiving, and Jalen Stewart set Freedoms career touchdown record with 33 after scoring three times last night. The defense did give up 157 yards to Brandon Camire who now is over 1,300 for the season for Emmaus.
In the other contenders games, Nazareth blew out Whitehall and Parkland stomped Stroudsburg in a cross division game.
Easton travels to BASD Stadium to take on Becahi tonight. It will be a great running back battle between Becahi’s Tavion Banks and Easton’s Nahjee Adams. Adams, a junior, leads 6A in rushing statewide and has been the breakout player in the Lehigh Valley while Banks is approaching his second straight 1,000 yard season and can set the Golden Hawks career touchdown record with two tonight. Banks is also looking to go 4-0 against his former Easton teammates.
