St. Francis subdues McDowell's senior night game at James Conner Field

McDowell experienced splash plays during its Oct. 16 game against St. Francis. There was Evan Kuhn’s frozen rope of a touchdown pass to Ben Spooner. Emory Moffett’s lunging interception of a deflected pass. Joe McLaughlin’s coffin corner punt inside the Red Raiders’ two-yard line. Those and others, though, weren’t enough to stem the tidal wave that was its New York opponent. St. Francis returned to southern Buffalo with its 42-21 victory at James Conner Field. The Red Raiders also upped their perfect record to 7-0 via consecutive wins against Erie County teams. The Red Raiders blanked the visiting Erie High Royals 41-0 on Oct. 10. The senior night loss left McDowell 5-3 and its coach concerned. “This was really disappointing,” Aaron Slocum said. “We need to put four quarters together and (Oct. 16), I’m not sure we even put two quarters together. “We still have football ahead of us – which is a great thing – but overall, we really didn’t do a good job.” Quarterback Eric Kuhn ran or passed for each of McDowell’s three scores. Besides the one to Spooner, he recorded a shovel pass to Brayden Powell for the game’s last TD. More: Corry, General McLane clinch
