In a thrilling victory over Harvey, Edgewood quarterback JJ DuFour set a new school single-game touchdown record with seven passing TDs. The feat surpassed the previous record of six TDs set by Tony Hall on October 13, 2023. DuFour achieved his record-breaking performance in just the first half, leading Edgewood to a 42-21 halftime lead.
He added to his tally with a 64-yard TD pass to Zaiden Fox in the second half. DuFour completed 12 of his 15 passes for 316 yards, connecting with six different receivers. He connected with senior Willie Guyton three times, as well as Nolan Standle and all-Ohio senior receiver Jasiah Pope. Harvey managed to close the deficit to 35-21 with 41 seconds left in the half on a 1-yard run by Xavier Rode, but DuFour redeemed himself with a 44-yard TD pass to Pope.
Edgewood's coach, Olajuwon Cooper, praised DuFour's leadership and consistent performance, noting that the team would have an easier time scoring with the other receivers. Edgewood will host Conneaut next, with Harvey set to host Lakewood on the same night.
