With two minutes, 21 seconds remaining, a 13-yard touchdown run by third-string quarterback Rondell Bradley, followed by a two-point conversion pass from Bradley to Jayden Sangmeister, was all the scoring the Tigers (2-4) would need.

Freshman quarterback Gavin Sidwar added another touchdown on a QB sneak. Calvert Hall made a late-game comeback, but La Salle’s defense and special teams stepped up to thwart the attempt, first by intercepting the Calvert quarterback with under two minutes to go.
