Their momentum only grew stronger in the second quarter, as they extended their lead to 22 points, heading into halftime with a comfortable 45-23 lead.

If Warren JFK was impressive in the first half, they were even more formidable after the break. The Eagles unleashed their highest-scoring quarter of the game in the third, pouring in 28 points while holding the Red Devils to just 15. This surge gave Warren JFK a commanding 73-38 lead entering the final quarter, with a running clock in effect. Although Campbell-Memorial managed to outscore JFK in the fourth quarter, it was not enough to overcome the deficit, as the Eagles claimed the dominant 87-55 win.
