The Warriors had other plans, after Blackwell made the final touchdown of the game and #21 Jalen Hunter ran in the two point conversion putting them in the lead 16-12. Zarah wasn’t happy about that, he did all he could to try to score another touchdown but was stopped as time expiered. Both teams played a great game but the Lake Shore Warriors came out on top.
