WESTBROOK — Ben Sirois scored two touchdowns in the first quarter and Degan Jordan scored two in the second as Leavitt built a big first-half lead and rolled to a 45-6 road win over Westbrook in a Class B football tilt Saturday.
Sirois opened the scoring on a 69-yard pass from Noah Carpenter. Carpenter added a 39-yard field goal, then Sirois ran into the end zone from 15 yards out, and after Dayton Calder’s two-point conversion run, the Hornets led 17-0.
In the second quarter, Jordan scored on a 14-yard run and an 8-yard pass from Carpenter. Blaine Shaw ran in the two-point conversion after the latter TD to make the score 31-0.
After halftime, Calder had a 9-yard touchdown run and Maddox Demers ran in a 40-yard TD, and Carpenter connected with Brett Coburn for a two-point conversion that extended Leavitt’s advantage to 45-0 in the third quarter.
Westbrook’s (2-3) Colin Allen returned a fourth-quarter punt 49 yards, the first points scored against Leavitt this season.
The Hornets’ (3-0) defense had four interceptions, one apiece by Sawyer Hathaway, Demers, Carpenter and Jordan.

YARMOUTH 7, GRAY-NEW GLOUCESTER 1: Jared Conant scored the game’s first goal and Yarmouth (8-0-1) added five more in the first half en route to a 7-1 victory over visiting Gray-New Gloucester (4-4-1) Saturday afternoon.
Conant, a senior captain, who uses a wheelchair because of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration, got the start on Senior Day and just 35 seconds into the game scored a goal for the fourth consecutive season. Isaac Grondin had the assist.
“It really meant a lot,” said Conant. “It was great to share the moment with my fellow seniors. I’m happy, but it’s bittersweet. It’s probably the last time I’m going to do this.”
“We always talk about working hard and not complaining and I’ve never heard Jared in the eight years I’ve known him ever complain,” said Yarmouth Coach Mike Hagerty. “He’s been a great role model for all of us.”
After the Patriots let Conant score, the Clippers reciprocated with an own goal, but after that, Yarmouth scored five times in 24 minutes to break it open, as Sutter Augur had two goals and Truman Peters, Adam McLaughlin and Sawyer Flowerdew all finished for a 6-1 halftime lead.
In the second half, Asher Lockwood scored late to complete the scoring.
