Quarterback Sage Reinhart completed a 49-yard touchdown strike to Corey Baker.

Perk Valley place kicker Kyle Chudoba connected on a 25-yard field goal as time expired in the first half to cut the Pottstown lead to 21-16. He added two more field goals despite the ridiculous field conditions in the second half to put Perkiomen Valley in position to take the lead.

“We were totally fired up for the game tonight, but somehow we came out a little flat,” said Boyd. “Our coaches got on the captains at halftime, letting us know we had to step it up and what they expected. It’s a huge win for us in the Pac-10.”
