Prep Football
Burlington-Edison Tigers 20,
Squalicum Storm 16
Down 7-16 with 8 mins to go in the 4th quarter, the Tigers battled back to score the go-ahead TD with 59 seconds left in the game on a 12 yd TD run by Senior running back Jake Lowell @JakeLowell7
After a few pass interference penalties, the Storm advanced to the Tigers 40 yd line with 3 secs left in the game. A Hail Mary pass attempt never made it in the air as Lowell sacked the Storm QB forcing a fumble that was recovered by Junior defensive end Bryce Fair.
The Tigers scored in the first quarter on a 20 yard pass from Senior QB Owen Stewart @OwenStewart00 to Junior wide receiver Jake VanPelt @Jake__VanPelt. That score was set up by a Nolan Radder interception. But after that Tiger TD, it was all Squalicum until the late Tiger scored in the 4th quarter.
Overcoming a slew of penalties and turnovers, B-E showed grit and heart to get some key defensive stops and convert offensively late in the game.
The two headed rushing attack of Stewart and Lowell proved too much late in the game as the Tigers could visibly be seen out powering the Storm tacklers.
B-E is now 1-0 on the season and faces juggernaut Archbishop Murphy next Saturday on Kirkby Field at B-EHS.
