THINKS THE EAGLES STOLE ONE
Camden Catholic was leading Bishop Eustace, 20-15 at intermission. And then the floor caved in on the Irish's artificial turf Friday night.
Camden Catholic turned over the ball six times in the second half and Eustace said thank you with a 35-20 victory that clinched the Burlco/Olympic National Division crown and prevented Camden Catholic from sharing it.
Those turnovers also helped to knock the Irish out of a berth in the Non-Public Group 3 tournament, the first time that has happened in the five years that Rick Brown has been the head coach.
Catholic quarterback Joe Brennan completed 17 of 27 passes for 228 yards and a TD. He also threw two interceptions, one of which led to a touchdown that gave the Crusaders a 28-20 lead.
Sean Bell, who scored Eustace's first touchdown on an 80-yard run, finished with 119 yards on 21 carries to bring his season total to 1,049.
