   Leading off today: Casey Judelson's third touchdown of the game put Harrison ahead for good in a 44-42 football victory over Eastchester in two overtimes on Saturday.

   Harrison completed the victory by stopping an Eastchester 2-point conversion in the second OT.

   Judelson finished with 37 carries for 298 yards and also blocked a punt. Harrison rushed for 452 yards, including 83 for Rob Forgione, who scored a TD for the winners in the first overtime.

   The win was the first for new coach Jay Ciraco.

   It was Brady's second big play in overtime. Moments earlier, he caught a 5-yard TD pass from Aidan McCarty (21 of 40, 240 yards). Kieran Hendry added the extra point to make it 14-7.

   Commack responded in OT with Ryan Paolella's 8-yard TD run.

   Iona Prep looks sharp: Quarterback Darius Wilson went 17 of 29 for 284 yards and four touchdowns and rushed for 71 yards and a score as Iona Prep defeated Sparta (N.J.) Pope John XXIII 41-21 in the Battle for the Bridge at MetLife Stadium.

   Iona Prep's defense finished with six sacks and a forced turnover and its offense gained 566 yards. Junior Alex Williams and sophomore Justin Joly combined for 11 catches for 225 yards and three touchdowns.

   "This is big for New York," Wilson said. "It showed them that we're just as good as them and we deserve just as much respect."
