They say turnovers kill. No more so was that evident Friday night as Bethlehem Freedom commited four turnovers via interceptions by end of the third quarter, that led to four Whitehall touchdowns to lead the Zephyrs to a 42-3 drubbing of the Patriots at Frank Banko Field.
“Our defensive stepped up tonight, they played great.” Whitehall coach Brian Gilbert stated. “They(Freedom) could not get that run game started, which allowed our guys to make plays in the secondary and conversely set up the offense to capitalize on the turnovers.” Gilbert added.
Whitehall’s Saquan Barkley got the turnovers started by picking off a pass on Freedom’s opening drive to setup the offense on the Patriots 27. Two plays later QB Jeff Charles took the ball around the left edge and scored with Connor Ilgenfritz converting the PAT giving the Zephs a 7-0 lead.
“We told our kids this Freedom’s line is bigger than us, Gilbert said. “That motivated our guys all week.”
