JaQuan Gonzalez-Pratt went on a tear Friday night, scoring four touchdowns to propel Cherry Hill West to a 33-6 victory over Cumberland and get the Lions to 2-0 to start the season.
Coming off the shortest of short weeks—West beat Paul VI four days before in a weather-delayed opener—the Lions had to fight to hold off Cumberland early, and ended up going into halftime up just a touchdown.
Gonzalez-Pratt, who finished with 109 yards rushing, and teammate Tyrone Williams ensured that wouldn't hold up for the final, however, combining for three touchdowns in the second half to pull the Lions away for the victory.
Gonzalez-Pratt's four touchdowns came on just nine touches.
West draws Timber Creek, which lost a shootout to Eastern this week, for the third game of the season. It'll be the Lions first road trip of the young season, with kickoff slated for 7 p.m. at Timber Creek on Sept. 27.
