DePaul raced out to a 21-0 first half advantage on the strength of three Dan Kowal touchdown passes. The junior first hit Shakim Phillips with a 51 yard scoring strike. He threw a 10 yard touchdown to John Weiss and a 4 yard touchdown to Drew Feniello in the second period. Michael Burgio was true on all three PATs.
Valley made it close with two touchdowns in the second half. They got on the board when Pete Savastano found Anthony Verilli for a 37 yard score. Savastano scored in the fourth period on 7 yard rush with five minutes to go. On the touchdown drives Savastano hit Verilli with a total of six completions for for 72 yards. Three of those completions were fourth down conversions. After Valley's second touchdown, Verilli recovered an onside kick. This time, the Indians could not convert.
Kowal finished with 8 completions for 191 yards. Phillips grabbed 6 of those passes for 175 yards. Kowal also blocked a Valley extra point attempt and had a key interception late in the game. The DePaul defense held Valley's potent rushing attack to 44 yards. Kevin Stark, Craig Zimmer and John Proctor led the defense with eight tackles apiece. Nick Kline had seven spills. Kevin Murray, Wonzney and Robert Foster had six take downs apiece. Foster, Kline and Murray had sacks. Murray had a fumble recovery.
Savastano led Valley's defense with 11 tackles. Anthony Perez and Andrew DeFilippis had 10 tackles apiece. Colin Bush had eight tackles. Verilli, Michael Fusco and Franco Rosella had seven tackles. DeFilippis had a sack. Michael Tolerico had a pick.
The win most likely solidifies the No. 3 seed in Non Public, Group III playoffs for DePaul. Wayne Valley failed to qualify for the playoffs for the first time since 2004. Their fate was sealed when Ramapo, who trailed Valley for the last spot, upset previously unbeaten Pascack Valley.
