Williams wasn’t sharp in muddy conditions going 9 of 25 for 160 yards but he threw touchdown passes to JT Stewart (3 catches, 38 yards) and Ray Maze (2 catches for 44 yards) and added the rushing score.

Erik DeLong plugged his way for 147 yards and a touchdown on 28 carries for the Wolves as well, while Ange Costanzo had three catches for 62 yards.

Kane, which co-ops with East Forest, led 21-0 at halftime thanks to a pair of first-quarter scores and a touchdown in the final minute of the half.

Maze caught a 17-yard pass from Williams to open the scoring and then DeLong ran in from short distance to make it 14-0. Stewart then hauled in a 5-yard pass from Williams just before the half to open the lead to 21.

Brockway answered early in the third quarter on a 7-yard Peter Downer to Noah Vokes scoring pass. Downer was 17 of 37 for 190 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions with Vokes catching four passes for 39 yards.

Kane put the game away on a long, time-consuming drive that ended in a 1-yard Williams run with 7:05 to play to make the score 28-7.

Brockway scored the game’s final touchdown on a 6-yard Downer to Tyler Serafini flip pass on fourth-and-goal with 3:27 to play, but Kane recovered the on-side kick.

Kane (11-0) gets a rematch with Clarion, a team it beat 21-14 in last year’s title game, in the championship game at 7 p.m. Friday in Brockway. The Wolves are looking for their fourth straight D9 title after winning 2014 and 2015 in Class 1A and 2016 in Class 2A. Kane lost the 2012 and 2013 2A titles to Karns City. The Rovers finish the year 6-4.
