Friday’s game was a back-and-forth affair that looked to be headed into overtime with a 20-20 tie with five seconds remaining. However, a one-yard dive over the goal line by Parker Timp gave South Winn (1-3, 0-2), just what the Warriors needed to record their first win of the season over Newman Catholic (1-3), 27-20.
“Our kids put in a great week of practice, came out and earned a hard fought victory over a talented Mason City Newman squad. Braiden Todd came out poised and helped boost our offense by throwing the ball with accuracy and Brady Ohrt made excellent reads in our option ground game. I was very pleased how the two of them really put us in great positions offensively all night. Carson Streeter continues to be a force in our kicking game and had a breakout game receiving the ball,” noted Coach Jason Ohrt. “We tackled well most of the night but got into a little bit of trouble in the second half with Newman’s very talented receiver in space. ”
The rundown
South Winn broke through to score the lone touchdown in the first on a 6-yard pass strung between Braiden Todd and Brady Ohrt. Newman countered in the second with a score of its own to tie the game 6-6 before Ohrt scored for a second time. In the second quarter, the senior pushed his way through the lines into the end zone from one yard out. Combining the touchdown with Carson Streeter’s PAT gave the Warriors a 13-6 halftime advantage.
After the break Kyle Kuboushek punched in another one-yard score putting South Winn out front 20-7. Newman wasn’t about to quit and a 25-yard pass put the Knights back in it, 20-14. A fourth-quarter 54-yard pass play knotted the game after the Warriors blocked the PAT. Marching down the field, Parker Timp got his name called as the ball carrier to finish the job for a 1-yard plunge with five seconds left to play for the 27-20 win.
Looking for yards
The Warriors had a pretty balanced attack within its 356 yards of offense with 184 through the air and 172 on the ground. Newman tallied 395 yards of total offense.
Todd was 15-for-28 in completed passes for 184 yards while Kuboushek led the ground attack for 84 yards on 23 carries. Nolan Sabelka had five carries for 59 yards. Through the air, Streeter had eight receptions for 100 yards, while Brody Tieskoetter caught four passes for 50 yards.
Ohrt led the defense with 11 solo tackles and three assists. Kuboushek had another seven solo stops for the Warriors while Timp was there for six solo takedowns.
