Bethlehem Catholic Opens 2025 Season Against East Pennsboro

The high school football season kicks off tonight in Bethlehem as the Bethlehem Catholic Golden Hawks host the East Pennsboro Panthers in a non-league matchup at BASD Stadium. Both programs enter the 2025 campaign with fresh slates and plenty to prove.

Bethlehem Catholic, ranked No. 2,594 nationally and 90th in Pennsylvania, comes into the season as one of the more competitive Class 12 programs in the state. The Golden Hawks are looking to build early momentum and showcase their depth on both sides of the ball. Playing at home gives Bethlehem Catholic an edge, as the team looks to start strong in front of its supporters.

East Pennsboro, ranked No. 4,306 nationally and 166th in Pennsylvania, will look to make a statement in its opener. The Panthers, representing Class 27, travel into a tough environment but bring energy and a chance to test themselves against a respected opponent.

Neither team has logged a win, loss, or point this season, making this opener a clean slate for both programs. The matchup also marks the first meeting between the Golden Hawks and Panthers in recent years, adding intrigue to the non-conference showdown.

With both squads sitting at 0-0 overall, league, and non-league play, tonight’s contest will set the tone for their seasons ahead. Bethlehem Catholic will aim to protect its home field and live up to its ranking, while East Pennsboro hopes to pull off an early-season upset.

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. at BASD Stadium.

Do you want me to make this more journalistic/neutral (like a newspaper preview), or a bit more hype-driven (like a fan-site or social media pregame post)?
