Anthony Crawford rushed for 228 yards and two touchdowns, Austin Conner got into the end zone twice and the red zone defense came up big Friday to carry Strath Haven to a 42-0 win over Radnor in Central League football at George L. King Field.

The surging Panthers (8-0, 6-0 Central) are two games from securing an undefeated regular season.

With 19 touchdowns this season, Crawford is within range of joining Panthers all-time greats Dan Connor, the leader with 29, Dan Mulhern and Chase Barlow, all of whom have tallied 25 or more times.

“Any time you mention my names with those guys it’s an honor,” Crawford said. “But I mean, I’m getting the ball a lot, the O-line is playing great and so is the defense. The O-line these past couple weeks, they’ve been blocking better than they ever have. And our defense came out and just shut (Radnor) down.”
