After breaking the New Jersey state record for passing yards last week, Devin Leary now stands alone as the state's leader for touchdown passes Saturday by throwing for one score — bringing his career total to 97 — in a 49-6 win over Cherry Hill East.

Leary, a North Carolina State recruit next season, shattered records for both yards and touchdowns on September 22, when he threw five touchdowns in a win over Clearview.

Timber Creek has won 24 straight games and improves to 8-0 on the year. The Chargers will be the No. 1 seed in the South Jersey Group 3 playoffs.
