2012 Prep Spotlight Week 3
AHSAA Spotlight for Week 3
Daphne Turns to Hook-and-Lateral Play
In Fourth-Quarter Rally To Beat Foley
MONTGOMERY,
Ala. - A page from the "Old School" playbook provided the spark as Daphne
beat Foley 46-45 in overtime last week to grab the AHSAA Prep Spotlight for
week three.
The Trojans, who trailed by as many
as 19 points in the fourth quarter, scored with seconds remaining to tie the
game at 39. Coach Glenn Vickery's team got the tying score and sent the game
into overtime using the old "hook-and-lateral" play.
Quarterback T.J. Fleeton, who
was 15-of-26 for 198 yards and three touchdowns, fired a 10-yard pass to
Tamaurice Tolbert, who then pitched to his brother Wheylan Tolbert
who ran the final 27 yards of the 37-yard TD play. Chris Sain then caught
the two-point conversion to tie the game at 39 and send it into overtime.
Wheylan Tolbert caught a 15-yard pass from Fleeton in overtime and Tyler
Cook kicked the game-winning extra point for the one-point win.
The unusual comeback overshadowed a
super effort by Foley running back Cedrix Reed. Reed, who helped the
Lions build a 22-point lead, ran for 270 yards and scored four touchdowns on
runs of 7, 46, 8 and 61 yards to pace Foley.
The wild finish edged out another
game where two running backs combined to rush for 599 yards and seven
touchdowns. Berry beat previously unbeaten Hubbertville 42-33 as Terrance
Hollingsworth had
25 rushes for 336 yards and scored four touchdowns. Hollingsworth, nicknamed
"Tank," scored on runs of 17, 25, 2 and 14 yards, added a two-point
conversion and also had eight tackles on defense.

touchdowns.
