Koch's FG with 6 seconds left, puts BHS on top of Carey

Posted by Fred Steiner on September 4, 2010 - 4:15am

Big mistake if you left Harmon Field early on Friday night. Even worse if you were a Carey fan.

The Blue Devils, who demolished the Pirates last year, were tied at 28-28 with seconds on the clock.

Then came the big defensive play from the Big Red. BHS tackled Bryce Orians for a 3-yard loss as the Blue Devils were in a punt formation. The big play came with 30 ticks remaining in the game.

With only 6 seconds on the Harmon Field clock, the Pirates' Christian Koch booted a 33-yard field goal.

The result: BHS 31 - Carey 28.
