Owensboro Catholic led 27-14 after three quarters but had to survive a furious rally and a one yard run by Brady Atwell with 11.6 seconds on the clock to earn a 33-28 victory over Owensboro. Trevor DeLacey scored on a 10 yard run and Peter Saang kicked the extra point to give Owensboro a 28-27 lead with less than three minutes left in the game. Owensboro Catholic then put together their winning drive but had the overcome a fourth-and-14 and a fourth-and-one to set the stage for Atwell’s heroics. Brady Atwell appeared to be stopped short of the goal line but kept moving his legs and seemingly helped by a teammate who was pushing the pile and finally crossed the goal line for the victory. A very exciting game before a vocal, large crowd and both teams left it all on the field tonight with another Friday night classic.
