The Triple Overtime Thriller!

In clearly the best game of the season, the Beast of a Battle lasted 3 OVERTIMES and the kids made some huge plays to makes scores as well as to stop a few. We lost 25-24 to Harlan HS (who kicked an extra point to win the game). (HS overtime gives each team 4 tries to score from the 10 yard line.) The clock below shows the score with a minute left in regulation.

I am very proud of how we played. Yeah we made some mistakes but I was more impressed by how we carried ourselves after the game. We were mostly very dignified in defeat and that's a true sign of character. The good news is that our playoff hopes are still alive! Click to see a few more game pics.
