Football Recap: Bethlehem Center Takes Loss Despite Strong Performances from Teagan Veatch and Enzo Brown + How To Watch

Bethlehem Center extended their losing streak to three on Friday, dropping them down to 1-6. They received a blow as they fell 37-19 to the Jefferson-Morgan Rockets. While losing is never fun, the Bulldogs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 481st, while the Rockets are ranked 231st).

Enzo Brown and Teagan Veatch certainly did their best on Friday to avoid the loss. Brown rushed for 197 yards while picking up 7.9 yards per carry, while Veatch rushed for 108 yards on only 15 carries. Brown was even better on defense, picking up two sacks, forcing one fumble, and making 11 total tackles (4.0 for loss).

Don't try to pin the team's loss on the defense: they kept the trenches locked down and allowed a mere three yards per carry. The team can thank Brown for the heroic effort on defense: he. Bethlehem Center's run defense has been on the up-and-up: they allowed 3.73 yards per carry earlier this season, but they've only allowed 4.8 on average over their last three games.

As for Jefferson-Morgan, their win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 7-0. The team's perfect season has a lot to do with their offensive performance: the team's won by an average of 28.2 points thus far.

A big part of Jefferson-Morgan's victory came down to the chemistry between Farabee and his top target Deakyn Dehoet. Farabee threw for 241 yards and three TDs on only 17 passes while Dehoet picked up 203 receiving yards and three touchdowns. With that strong performance, Dehoet is now averaging an impressive 105.9 receiving yards per game.

Meanwhile, Jefferson-Morgan is set to challenge their familiar foe Bentworth at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
