Downingtown East is known for playing anyone, any place, at any time. Tonight was no different, as the Cougars faced Delaware Valley from the Scranton area.

The Warriors got worn out 37-6. The physical Cougar team showed they are not one-dimensional. They threw for 236 yards and ran for 230.

Both teams traded scores early, as JJ Helverson hit Mike Brown for 41 yards and Mike Iuzzolino returned the ensuing kickoff 90 yards for a score. Both kickers missed their extra points. After one, Ryan Hornak made a 27-yard field goal for a 9-6 Cougar lead.

From there, the Cougars imposed their will. Ayden Harris’s run (30 yards) and an 11-yard pass from Helverson to Lammy made it 23-6 at halftime. Morris and Ayden Harris scored rushing touchdowns to close out the scoring.

Harris rushed for 127 yards and two scores. JJ Helverson threw for 215 yards.
