Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bellwood-Antis). They enjoyed a cozy 46-28 win over the Chestnut Ridge Lions on Friday.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Bellwood-Antis to victory, but perhaps none more so than Ethan Shawley, who picked up 100 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Shawley was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 60 yards. Alex McCartney was another key rusher, rushing for 101 yards and one TD.
Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Bellwood-Antis proved: they limited Chestnut Ridge to a paltry 2.6 yards per carry. The team can thank Chase Plummer for the heroic effort on defense: he. Bellwood-Antis' run defense has been on the up-and-up: they allowed 4.9 yards per carry earlier this season, but they've only allowed 4.43 on average over their last three games.
Bellwood-Antis didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off four passes before the game was over. Jackson Dorminy led the group effort, picking up two of those interceptions all by himself. Christian Jennings also made four total tackles, which is notable because Bellwood-Antis is 2-1 when he posts at least three total tackles, but 2-3 otherwise. Dorminy got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.
When it comes to explaining why Chestnut Ridge lost, don't look at Cade Emerick. Despite the final result, he picked up 126 receiving yards and one score. Jayden Imler was in the mix as well, providing the Lions with two touchdowns.
The victory got Bellwood-Antis back to even at 4-4. As for Chestnut Ridge, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 3-5.
We've got plenty of inter-conference action coming up soon. Bellwood-Antis will take on rival Bellefonte at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. That matchup will pit two of the most dominant backs against one another: McCartney and Kaven Smith-kirk.
