WILLIAMSPORT -- The Williamsport Wildcats used a combination of excellent defense and timely execution on offense to earn a 21-0 shutout victory over the Brunswick Railroaders on Friday night in an MVAL Antietam football game.
Junior quarterback Blake Bandeff threw two touchdown passes to lead Williamsport (2-3, 1-0) past Brunswick (1-4, 0-1).
"The line blocked good and the receivers ran a good route," Bandeff said. "We ran some play-action passes. I felt real confident throwing to the receivers. We had good offensive practices all week."
Williamsport coach Adrian Custer could not give enough praise to his defense.
"The key to the win was defense," Custer said. "The defense came out and played with a total team effort. We put pressure on the quarterback. Our defensive line had a good push and that rattles the quarterback. ... They couldn't get into a rhythm because of the pressure from our line."
Senior linebacker Andrew Likely made 12 tackles and intercepted two passes for the Wildcats. Likely also made all three of his extra-point kick attempts.
