A couple long runs throughout the drive and Delsea Fullback, Jaedyn Stewart punched in the TD from a few yards out. Delsea went up 10-0 after the extra point. Delsea’s defense played lights out in the game and kept getting the ball back into their offenses hands and they converted. Now in the 3rd quarter Delsea still lead 10-0 and had the ball on Camden Catholic’s 6 yard line. Running back, Ricky Garron scored from 6 yards out to put Delsea up 16-0; the extra point was no good.

With a few minutes left in the game, Delsea scored on a quarterback sneak from one yard out by Damir Lomax. Delsea went up 23-8 and held their lead until the final whistle. It was a great win for Delsea considering their next and final three games of the season will all be challenging.
