Brashear's two-year stretch of City League regular-season championships is all but over.

Oliver (6-1) limited the Bulls (6-2) to 117 yards total offense and minus-3 yards rushing in topping the two-time defending champions, 21-7, yesterday at Cupples Stadium.

Brashear will need help if it wants a share of the City League title. Oliver and Schenley (6-1) are tied for first place, and both would have to lose this week in conference play to give the Bulls a share of the title. Neither faces a team with a winning record in their regular-season finals.

Brashear plays a non-league game Thursday at Wheeling Central Catholic.

The Bears forced two Brashear turnovers while their offense secured the ball most of the game.

After a scoreless first quarter, Oliver scored on two big plays. Quarterback Tyrek Morgan and receiver Martise Smith connected on a 49-yard touchdown pass, giving Oliver a 6-0 lead. The Bears stretched their lead when Tyree Mathis scored on a 74-yard run.

The 12-0 deficit proved to be too much for Brashear.

The Bulls cut the lead to five when quarterback Henri Chatman found Manasseh Gardner on a 28-yard touchdown pass, but Brashear never got back into the end zone. Oliver added a touchdown and a safety in the fourth quarter.

• Perry 32, DuBois 27: Quarterback Greg McGhee scored the winning touchdown on a 4-yard run with three seconds remaining to lift the Commodores to a comeback victory. Perry blew a 20-7 halftime lead and a 26-21 lead with less than two minutes remaining. McGhee scored three touchdowns, and running back Richard Lowry added two scores and 130 yards rushing.

• Kittanning 35, Summit Academy 20: Ross Harmon threw four touchdown passes and had 215 yards passing to lead the Wildcats (5-3) against the Knights (2-6) in Class AA Allegheny Conference play. Harmon completed 12 of 14 passes, eight of which went to Bo Bowser.

• Greensburg Central Catholic 53, South Allegheny 13: The Centurions (6-2) and Gladiators (0-8) combined for 46 first-quarter points, though South Allegheny was responsible for only seven in the Class AA Interstate Conference contest.

Greensburg Central Catholic quarterback Trent Hurley was nearly perfect, completing 8 of 9 passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns.

• Rochester 45, South Side Beaver 6: Four of Trey Johnson's eight carries went for touchdowns as the star running back led the Rams (8-0, 6-0) to a Class A Big Seven Conference win at South Side Beaver (5-3, 3-3). Rochester quarterback Jasson Adamson threw for 196 yards and three touchdowns.

• Lake Forest Academy 26, Kiski School 21: The Cougars (2-5) got to Lake Forest (Ill.) Academy's (5-4) 5-yard line with two minutes remaining but could not score the go-ahead touchdown.
