With a playoff game on the line, West Point rose to the challenge on Friday. They snuck past Northampton with a 27-22 victory.

Jack Lewis was in the mix too, providing West Point with two touchdowns.
Meanwhile, Northumberland entered their tilt with Westmoreland with three consecutive wins but they'll enter their next game with four. Northumberland simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat Westmoreland 70-24 at home. The result was nothing new for Northumberland, who have now won eight contests by 20 points or more so far this season.

West Point didn't have too much breathing room in their match against Northumberland in their previous meeting back in March of 2021, but they still walked away with a 14-8 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for West Point since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
