November 20, 1948 — Johnny Cannon scores both of his team’s touchdowns as Panther Valley Catholic captures a 12-2 victory over Norristown Catholic. A 30-yard run by Paul Petrich in the opening quarter sets up the first tally by Cannon, who reaches the end zone from 10 yards away. Cannon, a St. Mary’s student, delivers an insurance score in the final frame when he bulls in from two yards out. The Dragons defense also plays stellar, allowing just four first downs in the contest.
