Play of the Game

Brenton Martin 7-yard touchdown pass to Gary Ruckman on trick play

Most see a trick play, but I see an OLine that allowed no backfield penetration to get close to the pitch-man. It was the story of the day – @CruFootball’s lines dominated most of the day. UMHB wins the @ASC_sports Champ., 23-15 over @HSUCowboys. @D3FBHuddle @trench_talk #d3fb pic.twitter.com/dQwIgkQq2P

I would say the Don Beebe chase down ball punch to save a TD score by Jaydon Smith is the play of the game.
