SK Downs Defenders for Playoff W


SK won their opening round playoff game tonight against Bryan Station by a final score of 29-22.  The Defenders entered the game 6-4. 

SK got on the board first with just over two minutes to go in the first quarter with an Andrew Sampson 4 yard touchdown.   The two point conversion was overruled due to an illegal procedure call.  Station would take their first lead in the second after a field goal and a touchdown with an extra point fail.   Sampson would put SK back on top right before half with a 5 yard touchdown.  The two point conversion would be good to give SK the 14-9 half-time lead.

Station would reclaim the lead with under two minutes to go in the third with another touchdown followed by a failed extra point. 

Jared Bowling would get a touchdown score with 10 ½ in the fourth.  The two point conversion would be good this time and SK goes up by 22-15.  The Defenders would tie the score at 22 after a 48 yard pass play.  SK would get the winning score on a Brenan Kuntz to Grant Wassom 18 yard scoring strike with 4:42 left in the game.   Kuntz would finish the game 10-12 and 109 yards, 58 of which went to Wassom.  Sampson would finish with a solid 141 yards on 32 attempts. 

SK will play Campbell County in round 2.  The Camels beat SK earlier this year on a late scoring drive and two point conversion by a final of 29-28 snapping the Neers 6 game win streak.
