North Penn Squires Football

Flag
The North Penn Squires flag team battled the Conshohocken Bears last Saturday, with North Penn earning an impressive 22-6 victory.
The NP defense stepped in up in holding the Bears to six points, as Owen Johnson and Deaglan Budd had seven and six flag pulls, respectively, to led the Squires. Nick added four flag pulls, two of which were touchdown-saving. Ben Freer, Patrick McGee and Justin Egner also had a touchdown saving flag pull.
Levar Talley, Luke Cody, James Bones, and Kevin Pico rushed the Bears on almost every play, creating confusion and disruption in the Conshohocken backfield.
The Squires offense was not going to be out done by the defense, and on North Penn’s third play from scrimmage, quarterback Justin Egner faked to the left and rushed to the right and left the Bears behind on a 65-yard touchdown run. The extra point was added by Norm Gee, as he received the handoff and marched into the Bears end zone behind the blocking of James Mangine, Joseph Bogle, Cole Ostroff and James Bones.
On the Squires’ next offensive series, Zach Smith scored his first touchdown of the season, taking the handoff and rumbling 55 yards for the score. The Squires lined up in the shotgun formation for the extra point and center Quinton Lauglin snapped it to Egner who connected to Ben Freer for the two-point conversion.
The Squires offense was not done there. Justin Egner added another touchdown aided by the blocking of Graham Palumbo, Roman Patrone and Jacob Schumacher. Jayden Stahl added the extra point, running around the right edge to get his first points of the season. In Week 6 the Squires will face Roxborough.

55-pound
The weather was beautiful for the North Penn Squires 55-pound team’s game at the Bucks County Bears North Penn opened up with a great defensive stand lead by Mathew Buseck, Bobby Hill, Tyler Craig, and Brady Lawrence. The Squires then scored on their first offensive series on a 40-yard touchdownrun with great blocking lead by Julia Kile, Dylan Wszolek, and Ryan Austin.
Offensive touchdowns where orchestrated by Mike Benedict at quarterback, while Lucas Francis had two touchdowns over 40 yards and Gus Ross had a touchdown run over 40 yards as the Squires win 19-0.
The North Penn defensive stole the show as they did not allow the Bears to record a first down and Chris Freer had two fumble recoveries as the Squires won their third straight game — all by shutout — to stand at 3-1 on the season.

65-pound
After some real battles and low-scoring games, the 0-4 65-pound Squires faced the 3-1 Bucks County Bears.
North Penn did not disappoint, playing smash-mouth football to drive down to the 3-yard line just before halftime but fell short of scoring. The great runs were aide by the solid performance of the offensive line anchored by center Andrew Horan and had Evan Polumbo, Jake Federer and Cole Daley leading the blocking.
Evan Hannings had the best game of any running back to this point of the season as the Squires managed the offense and swarmed on defense. Sam Behr catching three substantial passes from Evin Sullivan. Another long drive resulted in no points for the Squires as the game ended in a 0-0 tie.
