It was Senior Night on Friday at Saucon Valley’s Montford E. Illick stadium. It took a little while to honor the Saucon seniors during the pregame festivities. But, it did not take very long for Northwestern Lehigh (8-0) to pounce on the Panthers (4-4). On the Tigers very first play from scrimmage, Northwestern quarterback, Justin Holmes threw a short pass to Cade Christopher that went a long way. The quick strike pass, catch and run covered 61-yards for a touchdown. The extra-point was good and only :18 seconds into the game Northwestern Lehigh jumped out to a 7-0 lead.
