It took the Clairton Bears one half of football to score 10 touchdowns and set a school record for points in a game Friday night in an 84-0 win in a Black Hills Conference mismatch at Clairton.
Tyler Boyd scored his fifth touchdown of the game on a 40-yard punt return to give No. 1 Clairton (5-0, 3-0) a 76-0 lead against winless Avella (0-5, 0-3) with more than three minutes to play in the second quarter.
The previous school record for points in a game was 69. The Clairton defense held Avella to minus 28 yards of total offense.
Brandt Gribbin had a hand in all three touchdowns as North Catholic (4-1) upset No. 4 Monessen (4-1) in a non-conference game at J.C. Stone Field. Gribbin passed for two touchdowns and rushed for another for the Trojans, who led 12-0 at halftime.
Tyler Bowman and Dustin Conti rushed for second-half touchdowns to help Jefferson-Morgan (3-2, 3-1) erase a 6-0 halftime deficit at Mapletown (1-4, 1-4) in the Tri-County South.
Sto-Rox quarterback Lenny Williams tossed four touchdown passes to four different receivers and rushed for another in a shutout win at Union (2-3, 1-2) in a Big Seven Conference game. The No. 2-ranked Vikings (5-0, 3-0) outgained the Scotties, 484-50.
In its second season of existence, Our Lady of the Sacred Heart (2-3, 2-3) has its first two-game winning streak. The Chargers raced to a 38-0 lead against Eastern Conference rival Leechburg (0-5, 0-4) at Joe Walton Stadium behind 234 yards rushing from Isiah Neely.
Chris Shortly threw his third touchdown pass of the game in overtime, and Michael Hawrylak converted the ensuing extra point to keep Brentwood (5-0, 3-0) perfect with an overtime win at Fort Cherry (3-2, 2-1).
