The Blue Devil football team looked solid in a crucial win last week, a 22-0 victory over the Bellefonte Red Raiders at Memorial Stadium.

This was Bellwood’s second shutout of the season, their first coming against Central 5 weeks ago.

“I thought we played a pretty good game against Bellefonte,” said B-A coach Nick Lovrich. “Anytime you play a school that is twice as big as you and you come out on top, you have to be happy.”
