The Baldwin football team won a key section game on Friday, defeating Woodland Hills, 30-27.

Touchdowns were scored by seniors Angelo Priore, Jarren Kelly, and Mason Stahl, while senior Emma Brandwene added a field goal.

Senior Naseer Penn capped the victory with an interception at the end of the game.

There were many other highlights for the Highlanders.

¨I felt like the effort on the offensive line was way better than our last game,̈  senior Tekoah Henry said. 

Senior Joey Pracel said the Highlanders were focused.

¨We did not have any setbacks and I felt like we’d win the whole game,” Pracel said. 

The Highlanders play Chartiers Valley away on Friday. The players believe they can build on the Woodland Hills win and continue to improve.

“As soon as we get the running game better, our wide receivers, especially Angelo Priore, will have many more opportunities for our team,” Henry said.
