The 38-0 score is correct. St John's played the first few series with their starters then went to a mix with the second stringers and eventually went to the younger kids late in the game. Westfield went with starters for almost three quarters, then started to mix in a few second stringers before having their JV play the SJC younger kids. SJC 1st vs WF 1st team was 24-0 (half time score), then the second string against mostly WF starters went 14-0. JVs were scoreless in a bit less than a quarter of play. SJC made a bunch of mental errors and, IMO, was a bit undisciplined and that resulted in a lot of penalties against them.
WF was able to make some plays but the difference in size, speed, and quickness was overwhelming. WF could not pass unless it was a quick hit type of play because SJC would be in the backfield. Asante got a few short yardage runs and a few mid range runs but all the yards were earned. On several of the plays where SJC scored they got to the second level quickly and then just ran away from the WF defense, including Morin, who is not slow.
WF faces this every pre-season and will face it again next week with DeMatha. Although I have not yet seen DeMatha, SJC is the real deal for a high school team and their schedule is brutal and full of nationally ranked teams. The real test for WF will be how they fare next week against Quince Orchard in their 3-way scrimmage with WF-QO-DeMatha.
Bottom line: as another poster said, WF will be fine and is certainly a top tier D6 team. Their offense is going to put up a lot of points. The defense may not be immediately hitting on all cylinders, but will be OK. The questions opponents will have to ask themselves this year is "Can we outscore Westfield"? I don't like shootouts because defense wins championships, but I expect we could see shootouts some this year.
