EAST MARLBOROUGH \u2013 If last week\u2019s one-point loss to Downingtown East was the definition of a heartbreaking defeat, Coatesville\u2019s 42-point win at Unionville on Saturday was the definition of a blowout victory.<\/p>\n

Going into Saturday\u2019s game, one had to wonder if the Red Raiders would be disheartened by last week\u2019s result, which saw the Red Raiders battle back from a 21-point first quarter deficit, only to have victory snatched away on the last play of the game as East converted an extra point with no time left.<\/p>\n

On the first play of this week\u2019s game against Unionville, junior Daquan Worley put those wonders to bed in a resounding fashion. Showing good vision and breakaway speed, Worley returned the opening kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown. Junior Jon Bollenbach converted the extra point, and much like Worley on the return, the Red Raiders never looked back on en route to a 42-0 rout.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a hard worker, an unbelievable kid in practice,\u201d head coach Matt Ortega said of Worley.<\/p>\n

Led by Worley\u2019s consistent success from his running back position and senior quarterback Emmett Hunt\u2019s impressive game both running and passing the ball, the Red Raiders would take a 21-0 by the end of the first quarter.<\/p>\n

Along with sophomore fullback Rahjier Miles-Eubanks, Worley\u2019s running allowed Coatesville to control the ball and the clock for most of the game<\/p>\n

The running back would not take sole credit for his performance, though. \u201cMy offensive line created the holes, and all I had to do was hit them,\u201d Worley said.<\/p>\n

Not to be outdone, the Red Raiders\u2019 defense had an equally impressive day. They forced three and outs on Unionville\u2019s first two possessions, and junior defensive back Isaiah Flamer grabbed an interception on the third. Through equal parts run and pass defense, Coatesville earned the shutout, including two forced and recovered fumbles in the second half and multiple fourth down stops.<\/p>\n

The inspired game showed that the Red Raiders are better than their 3-2 record may suggest.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was an emotional week,\u201d Ortega said about bouncing back from last week\u2019s result. \u201cI told the kids ‘we\u2019re an impressive team; we just have to believe.’ \u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to believe in the system,\u201d Worley said, echoing his coach\u2019s words. \u201cWe have to believe in the team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Coatesville will take that belief with them on Friday, facing Bishop Shanahan for the homecoming game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
