J-HIGH BOBCATS SCORE LAST MINUTE TD TO BEAT BEARS
September 16, 2009
By BOBCAT STUDENTS of Bogue Chitto
THE BOBCATS AND BEARS WERE ABOUT TO START THIER GAME LAST NIGHT, WHEN THE SKIES OPENED UP AND A SEVERE THUNDER STORM DELAYED THE GAME OVER AN HOUR. AFTER THE DELAY, THE WET PLAYING CONDITIONS CONTRIBUTED TO SOME SLOPPY PLAY BY BOTH TEAMS.
THE SCORE REMAINED KNOTTED AT ZERO THRU THREE QUARTER. WITH UNDER A MINUTE TO GO IN THE GAME, THE BOBCATS FINALLY REACHED PAY DIRT AS BROCK ROBERTS ROLLED OUT AND RAN IT IN FROM 10 YARDS OUT. THE TWO POINT TRY FAILED, AND THE BOBCATS WERE UP 6-0.
WITH TIME RUNNING OUT THE BEARS MOVED THE BALL DOWN THE FIELD, AND ON THE LAST PLAY OF THE GAME, ROBERTS PICKED OFF AN ERRANT BEAR PASS TO SEAL THE VICTORY.
IN THE SEVENTH GRADE FIFTH QUARTER, THE BOBCATS MARCHED DOWN THE FIELD AND SCORED FROM THREE YARDS OUT AS BROOKS INGLE CARRIED IT IN. THE TWO POINT TRY FAILED. BOBCATS WENT UP 6-0.
THE BEARS MOVED THE BALL DOWN TO MID FIELD BEFORE THE CLOCK REACHED ZERO, THUS ENSURING A BOBCAT VICTORY.
