Game notes: It’s Week 7 as the Hornets host rival Central Catholic on Homecoming. Emmaus has dominated this series recently winning the last 5 meetings. The Vikings last win came back in 2011 ….Emmaus is coming off a 31-28 win over Liberty last week as Brandon Camire scored 3 TDs and rushed for 185 yards. Camire is just four yards short of 1,000 for the season …..Senior Jack Ogutu caught his first career pass and scored his first career TD in the win, a key 50-yard reception from QB Jacob Moyer to end the third quarter …..Emmaus led 31-14 before giving up a pair of TDs in the fourth quarter to make it a three-point game late …..Central Catholic is coming off a 30-point loss to Easton on Saturday in a game in which they only trailed 14-6 at the half before a weather delay forced the game to be resumed on Sunday …..
