Fresh off a 21-17 come-from-behind thriller over McCaskey, the Comets were looking for a second straight win when they hosted Cedar Crest Oct. 22 for their homecoming game. The Falcons, however, could not be slowed. "That was a little disappointing," said head coach John Brubaker. "I thought we did a nice job stopping the run, but we did not defend the pass very well. The Comets got on board in the second frame with a 26-yard field goal by Peter Skiadas, but the visitors exploded for 20 unanswered points, running away with a 27-3 first half advantage. The second half was closer with Crest holding a slim 13-12 lead, but the damage was done. The Falcons opened the third quarter scoring before the Comets worked back-to-back scores. Eli Warfel (70 passing yards, 41 rushing yards) hit Quay Hanna with an 11-yard strike in the third and Ethan Adleman, who obtained 76 of Manor's 169 rushing yards, scored on a 52-yard scamper in the fourth. "It was nice to have Ethan back," Brubaker noted. "He did a nice job."Erik Hinkle and Will Stover combined for 14 solo tackles and Jonathan Osman and Ty Grassel were both credited with interceptions. Deshawn Stanley chipped in with four receptions for 40 yards as the Comets slipped to 5-4 overall. "Six wins would probably keep us in the hunt for playoffs," said Brubaker. "We have another opportunity. Hopefully we can rise to the occasion. My Mona Steinhauer
