Pa. football: Angeline a two-way threat as Downingtown East tops Roman Catholic

Towering over defenders at 6-foot-7, with soft hands and a basketball player's leaping ability, Downingtown East tight end Cary Angeline is a quarterback's best friend.

On Saturday afternoon the USC recruit proved that distinction applies only to quarterbacks on his own team.

Angeline recorded five sacks at defensive end to help Downingtown East dispatch Roman Catholic, 35-21, in a nonleague football game at the South Philly Super Site.

Angeline, who hauled in six catches for 104 yards, caught a 15-yard touchdown pass from Saunders Healy in the second quarter to give the Cougars the lead for good, 16-10.

Jack Kincade piled up 101 yards on 24 carries for Downingtown East, which is ranked No. 4 in Southeastern Pennsylvania by The Inquirer.

Roman's Philip DiWilliams threw for 266 yards and three touchdowns. Joey Bristow added 96 receiving yards on six catches.
