It wasn’t much of a contest Saturday afternoon for Bethlehem Catholic (2-1) as they walloped Pocono Mountain West 54-6 at Frank Banko Field.

Antwon Keenan scored five touchdowns and rushed for 131 yards on 11 carries, while Randy Terry added 137 yards on the ground and a score to make Saturday’s homecoming victory an easy one.

Playing against such an inferior opponent in PMW (0-3), the Hawks built a 40-0 lead at halftime and saw their first-teamers come out on the opening drive of the second half and end their day after that.

Head coach Joe Henrich knows that despite the lack of quality their opponent displayed, Saturday was a victory and an opportunity for his team to get better.

“It’s a win and you got to be happy when you win,” Henrich said. “Points dictate whether you win or lose, but it doesn’t always show how you play. I thought we had too many penalties in the first half and execution wise, that just can’t happen moving forward. We were just a little inconsistent with our execution, but it was a team win.”

The Hawks rushed for 337 yards on the afternoon and rarely needed to throw the ball, but quarterback Julian Spigner probably wishes he had some throws back, as he went 8-of-13 for 87 yards and a touchdown and two interceptions.

Andrew Nieves highlighted a first half of Becahi plays by returning a 47-yard interception for a score in the second quarter, as PMW was completely overmatched in the contest.

The Hawks now travel to East Stroudsburg South (1-2) Friday night for a game in the Purple Pit, which should test the Hawks more. The Cavs lost to Stroudsburg last weekend 49-29 and Henrich knows that any trip up north can be a challenge.

“It’s not really about how good or bad the teams are from that area,” Henrich said. “This is something that we’ve always tried to emphasize here. I don’t know if we’ve been good enough at it the last couple years. It doesn’t matter who we play, when we play, where we play.

“We have to focus on what we need to do. The execution and eliminating the mental and physical mistakes, and continue to get better.”
