With time winding down in the third quarter it appears there might be a small shift in momentum to Blacksburg.

 

[CRF4Dan]

Pass goes right through the hands of Andrew Babcock... Huge missed opportunity for the Bruins with Staunton River set to receive the punt.

Pass interference called in the endzone on a very questionable call on a pass I don't believe was catchable.

Pass interference called in the endzone on a very questionable call on a pass I don't believe was catchable.

I have no dog in the fight but that ball was thrown five yards out of the end zone. Really bad call.

 

[CRF4Dan]

With 5:57 to go in the 3A Final, Staunton River will have the ball from their own 31, down for the first time today.

 

[CRF4Dan]

Tiquest Terry with huge interception! First turnover of the day might very well doom Staunton River's championship hopes!

 

[CRF4Dan]

I thought Beck was in the endzone but they say he is a yard short. 1st & goal for Blacksburg with 4:17 to go!

 

[CRF4Dan]

Beck scores with 3:59 to go and Blacksburg has scored twice in a span of minutes to take control of this one 28-14!

 

[CRF4Dan]

Staunton River has the ball at their own 33 with 3:50 to go.

There's no "catchable pass rule in HS".
