Owen Pinkerton and Co. Win Eighth in a Row
Owen Pinkerton's big game helped extend Central Bucks South's winning streak to eight on Thursday. Pinkerton was unstoppable, rushing for 60 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, while also throwing for 96 yards and two touchdowns.
Pinkerton might have his next game, a home matchup with Neshaminy, circled on his calendar. Pinkerton rushed for 93 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 34 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Skins duked it out back in October of 2023.

Connor Simkiss Delivers Electric Performance Vs Neshaminy
While Central Bucks East might've come up empty on Thursday, Connor Simkiss wasn't going down without a fight. Neshaminy had no answer to Simkiss as he made 15 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
If history really does repeat itself, Simkiss might just drop another big game when he faces off against Pennridge on Friday. When Simkiss last faced the Rams back in September of 2023, he picked up 0.5 sacks and made 12 total tackles.
Gamescore: 24.50
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Nick Sassano stepped things up a notch to give Neshaminy the 'W'. Sassano was dynamite, picking up 48 receiving yards.
Neshaminy pushed their record up to 6-2 with the win, which was their fourth straight at home. Sassano's next matchup is against Central Bucks South on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance.
