KC ends season with win

Knoch tennis advances to PIAA semis

Erik Pfeifer caught a pair of touchdown passes from Anthony Kamenski and Kamenski also rushed for a score as the Karns City football team closed their season with a 34-12 road win Friday night over Titusville.

Kamenski completed just four passes, but two of them went from TDs to Pfeifer.

The first covered 8 yards and put the Gremlins up 7-0 midway through the first quarter.

The second capped the scoring from the 6 with 11:55 remaining in the game.

Kamenski's 41-yard run for a score in the third quarter gave Karns City (4-6) some breathing room.

Dalton Pyle also had an 89-yard kickoff return for a touchdown following a 9-yard kickoff return for a score by Titusville's Landon Palma.

Hunter Jones led Karns City's ground attack with 86 yards on 15 carries. Mitchell Kelsea added 32 yards on four carries, including a 12-yard touchdown, and Devin Ryan had 42 yards on seven carries.

The Gremlins held the Rockets to just 177 total yards.

Ridgway 21, Union/A-C Valley 7 — Jonathan Powell rushed for 49 yards and a touchdown, but the Falcon Knights closed the regular season with a road loss.

Luke Bowser was 7 of 14 for 52 yards passing for Union/A-C Valley (4-6).

Caden Rainey and Nolan Cumberland each had an interception for Union's defense.
