Columbia finishes season with overtime victory
The Roughnecks’ season came to an end on a high note with a 27-26 overtime win over Stafford.
Columbia opened the extra period with the ball, and Trey Maret scored on a 4-yard touchdown. Caleb Eddy’s extra-point made it a 27-20 lead.
Royal came right back in overtime and scored on Phillip Pete’s 14-yard reception from Boris Anyama. After a penalty on the extra-point try pushed the Spartans back 5-yard, Stafford went for the win on a two-point try that was stuffed by a Columbia sack.
“It was a good way to go out on the season,” Columbia head coach Leland Surovik said. “I was really happy for the seniors to get that win. That’s something they’ll remember for the rest of their lives. And to end with a win, it’s good for the young kids coming back and something to build on for next season.”
Columbia tallied 554 yards of offense and had 393 yards on the ground. Junior Sean Flannel who ran the ball 26 times for 225 yards and a score. Broderick Thomas had 13 carries for 71 yards, and Chazman Easton scored on a 19-yard run.
