GAMES OF THE WEEK

■ PINE-RICHLAND 54, BETHEL PARK 20
With Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly in the stadium, Pine-Richland quarterback Phil Jurkovec threw two touchdowns and rushed for three more. Jordan Crawford added two touchdown runs, but Pine-Richland did most of its damage in the air.

■ FREEPORT 24, SHADY SIDE ACADEMY 17
“That was a catch and go: no juke, no nothing, get your head down and get in the end zone,” Freeport quarterback Austin Romanchak said of his game-winning 1-yard sneak.

■ QUAKER VALLEY 39, CENTRAL VALLEY 0
The Quakers (5-0, 2-0) imposed their will on offense but impressed most on defense, holding Central Valley to just 25 yards of total offense in the first half.

■ FRANKLIN REGIONAL 26, ARMSTRONG 23
Domenick DiFalco’s field goal and Nate Leopold’s fumble recovery on Armstrong’s first play of its overtime possession helped Franklin Regional escape with a thrilling 26-23 victory over the River Hawks on Friday in a WPIAL Class 5A Big East Conference game.
