|---|---|---|
| 1. Lincoln (13-0) (Last Week: 1) | Kareem Folkes rushed for 80 yards and a touchdown, but he sealed the Railsplitters first PSAL title in 18 years with back-to-back pass breakups at the end zone on the final two plays of Lincoln’s thrilling 20-12 win against Erasmus Hall at Yankee Stadium. Quarterback Jessel Jones had 19 carries for 77 yards and a TD, Denzel Duchenne was great on both sides of the ball and Lincoln’s defense held E-Hall’s powerful offense in check. | Next: Season complete |
| 2. Erasmus Hall (9-4) (2) |
Sophomore Kahlil Lewin had 10 carries for 123 yards, Wayne Morgan had eight carries for 51 yards and two touchdowns. Everything seemed to be clicking offensively for the Dutchmen, but then the second half happened. E-Hall was stifled by Lincoln’s stingy defense and its championship dreams went unfulfilled. With Lewin and Curtis Samuel back for two more years, the Dutchmen might be back at Yankee Stadium sooner than later. |
