Key play

Facing a fourth-and-1 from its own 42 late in the game and holding a 16-13 lead, Ferris elected to go for the first down, which would have iced the game, but Pirates linebacker Lewis Wirth, tackle Matt Gilliand and linebacker Kevin Olglesbee stopped Ty Williams for no gain and Rogers cashed in for the winning score with 44 seconds left.

Daryn Steeneck intercepted a pass in the end zone to stop a Ferris drive that could have made the game 17-0 for the Saxons. He also caught the game-winning 35-yard touchdow pass and picked off a pass with 2 seconds left to ice the game.
