Bethlehem Catholic kept rolling on the gridiron last week, while Liberty and Freedom both fell to the top teams in District 11.

The Hawks (3-0) are the lone undefeated team in the city after posting a 42-6 mercy-rule win over a winless Pocono Mountain East squad last week.

Quarterback Cayden Vassa threw three touchdowns in short work, going 4-of-10 for 87 yards, as the Hawks built a 35-6 halftime lead. Mekhi Lapierre caught two scores for 21 yards and Jacob Sutton ran for 67 yards and a touchdown.

“We got a couple turnovers that allowed us to take an early lead,” said head coach Tyler Ward. “Played the first half out with our normal guys and then rotated a bunch of guys in the second half.”

Liberty (2-1) battled against the area’s top-ranked team in Parkland (3-0) last week, but couldn’t stay close in a 42-14 loss.

Gabe Green continued his impressive season at running back, breaking free on a 60-yard touchdown run in the second quarter to make it a 13-7 ballgame, but Parkland proved to be too much. Parkland running back Trey Tremba scored four times on the night, his final touchdown being a 93-yard back-breaker before halftime.

“Parkland is as advertised in a lot of ways,” said head coach Shawn Daignault. “I’m proud of how our team competed, regardless of the score. I think we’re going to get better every week and I’m happy with the group of kids we have.”

Freedom (1-2) fell to an equally tough Nazareth squad 42-26 on the road. The Patriots led 6-0 early following a three-yard score from Noah Pierre and trailed 14-13 at halftime. The Blue Eagles scored the first two touchdowns of the second half to build a cushion, as Marquez Wimberly scored three touchdowns on the ground. Pierre scored his second touchdown of the night in the second half with an 80-yard run.

Freedom hosts another undefeated team for the third week in a row when Central Catholic (3-0) visits BASD Stadium Friday night.
