Elizabeth Forward is growing and getting better, which could be bad news for Class 3A’s Big East Conference.

The Warriors played their most dominant game of the season Friday, dismantling Quaker Valley, 42-6.

“I think we’re getting better every single week. I think we made a statement tonight with our win,” said EF coach Mike Collodi. “We played a complete game. We were able to run the ball pretty effectively. We played great defense tonight and we passed it when we needed to.”

On both sides of the ball, Elizabeth Forward did what it wanted to, winning the battle up front and winning the battle on the scoreboard.
