“Coach” Evan Culver and Ty Kessler enjoying the Selinsgrove mercy rule
Saucon Valley’s Evan Culver came up big on both sides of the ball last night in the PIAA quarterfinal contest with Selinsgrove. Not only did he rush 24 times for 207 yards and 3 touchdowns, but he also added a “pick-six” to lead the Panthers to victory.
Watch here as the Saucon Valley cornerback snags this first quarter interception for a “pick-six” to put his team up 14-0. The Panthers beat Selinsgrove 35-7.
Come join Evan and his teammates when they travel to Liberty High School in Bethlehem to take on Imhotep Charter in the semi-final round of the PIAA State Championship on Friday, Dec. 11, at 7 p.m.!
“Hey Evan!” — For being nominated by Saucon Valley Football and being recognized by Saucon Source, stop by Kevin Branco’s Main Street Gym this week to pick up ANOTHER MSG T-shirt!

Panther Play of the Week is a new weekly sports feature on Saucon Source sponsored by Hellertown’s Main Street Gym.
Owner Kevin Branco, who is a former standout Saucon Valley athlete himself, said he decided to sponsor this series because young athletes need encouragement.
“Coming from Saucon Valley–as an athlete–I know it’s important to be recognized in the community for your accomplishments,” he said. “In the end I always say the same thing: hard work and dedication always pay off.”
