Bergen Catholic Beat Don Bosco Prep 7-3 in Rivalry

Five-goal swing after the break

The report says the opening half offered little between the sides, but Bergen Catholic found another level after the restart. Their five-goal second-half burst exposed the gap between a competitive rivalry game and a match controlled by one attack.

The result would leave Bergen Catholic unbeaten through their first five matches, with a reported record of 3-0-2. They have scored 23 goals and conceded five, numbers that underline both their attacking depth and defensive consistency.

Don Bosco Prep, meanwhile, reportedly suffered their first defeat of the campaign after entering the match unbeaten.

Semelsberger drives the attack

John Semelsberger was the central figure in the reported victory, producing four goals and two assists. The senior’s performance reportedly took his season total to six goals and 19 points, making him the clear difference-maker in a high-scoring rivalry fixture.

Frank Burns also made a major contribution, scoring once and creating two more goals. Maxon Rivarola and Kyle Braithwaite were also listed among Bergen Catholic’s scorers, while Ryan Cho, Jake Lee and Arcen Tambi supplied assists.

Don Bosco’s goals reportedly came from Aiden Babb, Julian Savreski and Tucker McCarthy, with goalkeeper Gavin Russo making five saves despite the heavy final margin.

A test of consistency

The next challenge for Bergen Catholic will be maintaining their attacking rhythm when opponents adjust to Semelsberger’s influence. Don Bosco, now reported to be 2-1-1, will need a response in their next fixture after conceding five second-half goals.

For both teams, the next match should reveal whether this was a one-night swing in momentum or an early sign of the season’s developing hierarchy.
