After stopping the Mountaineers on their next series, the Tigers whose average victory margin this season entering the game was 52-8, scored early and often. Facing a South Williamsport defense that had surrendered nine touchdown plays of more than 30 yards in the first six games, the Tigers tested the stadium scoreboards candle power, scoring six more first half touchdowns. Leading scourge were two touchdown runs of 60 and 63 yards by quarterback Matt Kaskie, two Schiccatano scores of 16 and 26 yards and a 53-yard punt return by Jason Brobst. Taking a 49-7 lead into the locker room, it could be questioned if the Tiger offense really needed a break. Despite the huge lead, they had ran only 17 first half plays to 33 for South.
Football is a physical game.
Tonight we came out with some intensity and put together a good first drive. The kids played hard, but they just took it to us after Schiccatano's interception. In the second half, the teams traded touchdowns with reserves seeing most of the action. South's Dustin Sawyer scored his first varsity touchdown on an 11-yard scamper in the third quarter. The win clinched at least a tie for the CSC Division II crown for the Tigers and set the stage for next week's showdown with undefeated Selinsgrove.
