Three other Emmaus players also scored their first career touchdowns in the second half: sophomore running back Jasiyah Banks (12-yard run), freshman running back Reilly Bechtel (21-yard run) and sophomore Jahkari Christian (run).
Defensively, the Hornets posted their second shutout of the season and came up with a pair of interceptions in the first quarter for touchdowns – – 2-yard return from senior Ben Thomas and 40-yard return from junior Ryan DeJohn.
