032avenge any sort of loss to the Dragons this year as Lake Orian coming into this game 0 and5.

And throughout this season, we've seen a great rushing attack from Clarkson. And a heavy rushing attack from Clarkston. Got some great play calls today from coach Pintar and the staff been able to exploit Lake Orian defense on the screen plays and that's resulted in three different touchdown passes. Three different types of screen plays for the Wolves. Adams drops back to pass. Jumping up in the pocket, finding some room. He's past

They chose to get the ball at the start of the game. And one play in 56-yd swing

060pass to Lucas Bowman for the touchdown. So that means the Lake Oran Dragons will start the second half with the ball. We're awfully close to that running clock situation here [Music] as your Wolves are up 28 points here in the second quarter. Looks like Lake Orian is going to go for it here on fourth and four. Dangerous call here. Each team with one timeout left. >> Just under a minute to go here in the half. 57 seconds. Fourth and four. Laoria needs to get to the 42 yd line.

061seconds left to go. Fourth and four. Looks like their punt team is going to come out on the field after this timeout. And out of the punts today from Lake Orian, Clarkson has been able or not been able, they've been very close to getting a block. I would not be surprised if some point during this game we see the Wolves with a blocked punt. They've been oh so close. right here. Lake Horrian will pun away. Colton Williams back to receive for Clarkston. Standing on his own 30 yd line. >> Both teams lined up ready to play, but still 15 seconds left in this timeout.

064third and 19. still be about a 51 yd field goal from here for Aiden O'Neal who has the leg to hit it. See how Clarkson handles this last play. They just use their last timeout. 19 yds to go for the first down. So if they get tackled inbounds and not for a first down, they're have to run up and spike it or have to do the fire drill routine to get the field goal unit out. But right now the Wolves do sit in a noil range as of now be around a 51 yd field goal. Corning and Williams going to be on top of your screen. Child's in love on the bottom of your screen.
