SPAL Week 5 results and highlights
AAA DIVISION
BLESSED SACRAMENT 34, ST. JAMES 8
The Irish won the battle of unbeaten teams, as Philip Moore scored three more touchdowns, giving the eighth-grader a league-leading 15 and helping power BSS to the win at McBride Field.
The game was close for a while. After a Chargers? three-and-out to begin the first quarter, BSS took over, and on the second play from scrimmage Moore caught a screen pass from quarterback Michael DeMell and rambled 55 yards for the first of his three scores. He finished with 105 yards rushing and 60 yards receiving.
On the next possession, the Chargers mounted a 50-yard drive, moving the ball to the Irish 20 only to fumble it away. The Irish took over and drove 48 yards and scored again, thanks to Moore?s 3-yard sneak. Timmy Morin, who finished with 103 yards receiving, set up the touchdown by hauling in a 35-yard pass from DeMell. Michael Maguire caught the conversion pass from DeMell to make it 14-0.
St. James? next drive stalled and on the punt, the Irish?s Nick Iannone blocked the ball, which set up BSS at the Chargers? 35-yard line.
But three plays later BSS fumbled, and St. James recovered and drove 65 yards and scored. Grayson South capped the drive by running 6 yards for the touchdown to make it 14-8. South set up the score with a 35-yard run. South ended the game with more than 100 yards rushing, led the defense in tackles, forced a fumble and recovered a fumble. The Irish started the second half with an early score. After receiving the opening kickoff at their own 40, DeMell found receiver Morin with a 45-yard strike putting the ball at the St. James 15. Moore, who also keyed the defense, then finished off the 60-yard drive by running the final 15 yards for a 20-8 lead. DeMell ended the game with 160 yards passing and two scores.
Chargers quarterback Ben Winders, also a key contributor on defense, went down with an ankle injury. He still managed to pass for 30 yards and rush for 50 and help spark the defense with six tackles.
The Irish scored again when Morin caught a pass for 25 yards and Maguire another for 15 yards and the score.
Sam Weis, who also added a touchdown and ended with 55 yards rushing, converted the extra point make it to 28-8.
