Runnells leads Winslow; Belfast next in final

WINSLOW – Senior fullack Derek Runnells accounted for just over half of top-seeded Winslow’s total yardage as he ran for 273 yards and scored four touchdowns to lead the Black Raiders to a 47-19 semifinal rout over No. 4 Oak Hill of Sabattus Saturday.

The unbeaten (9-0) Raiders will host the Eastern Maine Class B championship game against defending East champ and No. 3 seed Belfast (7-2) at Poulin Field in Winslow next Saturday afternoon.

The Black Raiders rolled up 547 total yards while holding the Oak Hill Raiders to 180.

Kyle Harrington scored on a 21-yard run to put the Raiders up 7-0, but the lead was short-lived as Winslow’s Runnells scored on a 73-yard jaunt and Marty McCaslin gave Winslow the lead for good with a 51-yard scoring run.
