It appears to be the dog days of fall for Bethlehem Catholic’s football team as the Golden Hawks ran over another inferior opponent from the mountains last weekend.

This time it was East Stroudsburg South and the 54-7 whipping they took at home last Friday night in the Purple Pit.

It was the third win in a row for Becahi (3-1), but victories are somewhat formalities at this point of the year for the Hawks.

When you can out-rush your opponent 438-to-90, what else really needs to be said?

Antwon Keenan looks like Adrian Peterson against his opponents as of late, as he rushed six times for 169 yards and two TD’s against the Cavs last week.

That’s an average of 28.2 yards a carry and that’s the issue head coach Joe Henrich and his staff have to face moving forward.

The Hawks have scored 54 points in each of the last three weeks, but their starters have only lasted through the first series of the third quarter because of the lopsided scores.

With Becahi hosting Dieruff (1-3) this Saturday night, it continues a stretch of expected dominance, as three out of the next five opponents before their season finale against Central Catholic, features teams below .500 in the EPC North.

“It’s something that we certainly think about as a staff, but it’s also a reason why we preach to our guys about focusing on what we need to do to improve as a team,” said Henrich. “We can only control so much. I think we’ve done a better job with that this year, in terms of keeping the kids focused, but at the same time we don’t want the guys getting bored either.”

Needles to say, Becahi will win this week. They’ll probably mercy-rule the Huskies and be 4-1 after that and they’ll recycle the same theme until they take on Stroudsburg (3-1) on October 23.

In the end, it’s really all the Hawks can do at this point.

How this will play out for the team once they face an opponent that can provide resistance will be the real question.
