The Stallions improved to 3-1 with a 38-27 win over Hartley, powered by a balanced attack and timely defensive stops. DeSales jumped out to a 17-0 lead behind a 26-yard field goal from Dominic DiMaccio, a 9-yard touchdown run by Austin Andrews, and a 2-yard score from Jake Gilmore.
Both Andrews and Gilmore left the game with injuries, but sophomore Brian Asamoah stepped up in the backfield and helped keep the Stallion offense moving.
After Hartley pulled within three before halftime and briefly took the lead in the third quarter, the Stallions answered with a 13-play, 80-yard drive capped by Gilmore’s second touchdown of the night. DeSales regained the lead for good when Dylan Todd connected with Joe Arnold for a 63-yard touchdown strike, followed by a 25-yard scoring pass to Ryan Corkrean that sealed the victory.
Andrews finished with 82 yards and a touchdown, while Todd went 3-for-3 through the air in the second half for 105 yards and two scores.
