PELHAM — Pelham may have lost its season-long shutout streak, but the Pythons still delivered another dominant win.

Jake Travis ran for three touchdowns, to lead the undefeated Pelham to a 34-13 victory over Milford on Friday night.

Pelham (4-0) has no outscored opponents 141-13 on the season, which includes three shutouts.

Travis, a first-year starting quarterback, opened the scoring with a 1-yard QB sneak touchdown in the first quarter, then added to it with another 1-yard run in the second.

After Jake Herrling opened the scoring in the third quarter with an 80-yard kickoff return touchdown, Tavis made it three TDs on the day, this time breaking a 54-yard score.

Ethan Demmonds closed out the scoring with an 11-yard TD to start the fourth quarter. Herrling (10 carries, 67 yards) and Demmons (13 carries, 57 yard) led the Python offense.

"This was a hard-fought game, and Milford played us tough as always," said Pelham coach Tom Babaian. "The weather dictated that we had to run offensively to be successful, and we were able to do that.

"Our defense was far from perfect but stepped up when it needed to.  We’ll get back to practice this week and focus on making more improvements and building upon this win.”
