The Fallston Cougars took their undefeated football season on the road Friday night to C. Milton Wright and came home with a 35-11 win.
Fallston is the only Harford football team without a loss. Perryville was also undefeated heading into play Friday night.
With the win, Fallston jumped to 6-0 on the year, while the Mustangs fell to 2-4.
Fallston began its scoring in the opening quarter, when quarterback John Hetterman hit receiver Chris Rose with an 80-yard touchdown pass.
Hetterman struck again later in the half, tossing a 27-yard scoring pass to Connor Davis.
Before the half-time whistle, the Cougars built their lead up to 21-0, with Marc Badger scoring on a six-yard run.
In the dying seconds of the second quarter, Mustangs placekicker Brendan Magistro put a 27-yard attempt through the uprights with distance to spare, making the score 21-3 heading into the locker room at the half.
On Fallston's first possession of the third quarter, Badger snapped off a 60-yard run that brought Fallston to the CMW six yard line, then scored his second touchdown of the game four plays later on a two-yard rush.
Fallston scored its final touchdown on its next possession. Ryan Umpleby ended a five-play, 38-yard drive with a nine-yard scoring run to put the Cougars up 35-3.
The Mustangs got their lone touchdown of the contest late in the fourth quarter on a running play by freshman Will Hazleton. CMW converted the two-point attempt, making the score 35-11, where it stayed through the final whistle.
Fallston's John Eichelberger hit all five of his extra-point kicks.
HdG homecoming win
The Havre de Grace Warriors (4-2) treated themselves and many fans to a homecoming victory Friday night with a come-from-behind 28-26 win over Joppatowne in a UCBAC Chesapeake Division contest.
The Mariners, who began the year with three straight wins, suffered their third straight loss, but it didn't look that way to start.
Joppatowne (3-3) marched 67 yards to the end zone on its first drive and 75 yards on the second for a 12-0 lead.
Jamil Lee did most of the damage on the drives and scored the first two of four touchdowns. Lee capped the first drive with a 6-yard run and then scored from a yard out on the second drive.
Early in the second quarter, with a spread look out of the shotgun, Havre de Grace finally started to find some offense.
A direct snap to wideout James Smith resulted in a 29-yard run to the Joppatowne 38. Quarterback Lavell McCullers followed with a 16-yard run and four plays later plunged into the end zone from a yard out. A botched extra-point attempt left the Warriors behind by six, 12-6.
Joppatowne answered right back, moving 60 yards back into the end zone and Lee scoring from two yards out. The Warriors stopped the two-point try for the third time.
With just over two minutes to play in the half, Havre de Grace took over at its own 40 and in three plays, found the end zone.
