District 9 Review – Week 2

Tagged under: District 9, News, pfn

| September 13, 2023

The game of the week was Punxsutawney giving Redbank Valley fits through 3 quarters before succumbing 50-27.  Redbank’s offense could do no wrong as they scored on 7 of 9 possessions and rolled up over 500 yards against the Chucks.  To Punxsy’s credit, they never gave up and accounted for over 450 yards of offense themselves and only trailed 35-27 entering the 4th quarter.  It was a fun game to watch.  Congrats to the kids on both squads.
