Cinnaminson Football Team Escapes With Three-Point Win

For the second week in a row, the Cinnaminson High School football team faced a stiff challenge. For the second week in a row, the Pirates passed their test.

Cinnaminson defeated Hamilton West, 25-22, on Thursday night, according to a box score posted on nj.com.

Quarterback Nick Thevanayagam accounted for all four touchdowns, on the ground. He scored on runs of 1, 9, 5 and 1 yards.

The Pirates led, 7-0, at halftime, and 19-7 after three.

Cinnaminson held on in the fourth, though, as Hamiton West’s Kyle Bohn and Mark Bethea hooked up for three touchdowns. Bohn had three touchdown passes of 11 yards in that period.

It wasn’t enough to complete the comeback, though.

Cinnaminson, which won its first two games by scores of 55-0 and 41-0, respectively, improved to 4-0 for the first time since 1991, according to the Burlington County Times.

The Pirates won last week’s game against Bordentown by a touchdown before winning Thursday’s game by three points.
