After covering 100 teams in the Delaware Valley, we’re officially halfway through this year Friday football madness. Our crews have captured and even spotted long touchdowns and pick-sixes former Philadelphia Eagle Haason Reddick.
Week 5’s Game of the Week took us to Bucks County for a primetime matchup between two undefeated teams: the North Penn Knights and the Central Bucks South Titans.
Both offenses struggled to gain momentum against tough defenses.
Central Bucks South had an uneasy 7-3 lead in the third quarter, but went three and out on their first possession of the second half.
North Penn seemed to be in a similar spot, gaining little yardage on their first two plays of the series. But on third down, quarterback Matt Bucksar completed a long pass down the sideline for a first down.
The Knights continued to push the ball up the ground with multiple running backs. After reaching the red zone, they had to settle for a field goal, cutting the Titans’ lead to 7-6.
Late in the third quarter, with a one-point lead, CB South found success in their running game, led by their star running back Braylen Cape. Cape moved the chains with short but consistent gains, including a breakaway run of at least 15 yards. Quarterback Owen Pinkerton contributed with designed quarterback runs.
Cape put the nail in the coffin with a hard-fought touchdown, battling through the Knights defense. The Titans won 14-6 and remained undefeated.
