TOP 10 NHIAA GAMES FROM 2025
No. 10: ConVal 21, Kennett 20

This Week 1 contest was decided on the game’s final play.

After ConVal quarterback Kurt Dean scored on a 5-yard run and Spencer Bishop added the point-after kick on the first possession of overtime, Kennett pulled within a point, 21-20, on a 2-yard TD run by quarterback Abraham Kelsch. Kennett’s rush for the two-point conversion — and the win — was stopped short of the goal line, however, handing Brad Davis the victory in his first game as the program’s head coach.

It looked like ConVal would breeze to victory when the Cougars scored twice in the opening quarter. Dean tossed a TD pass to Max Erickson and then Wetu Selby scored on a 25-yard run to help the Cougars grab a 14-0 lead.

Kennett made it 14-6 at halftime, and then tied the game in the third quarter on a rushing touchdown by Jason Baker and a two-point conversion.

ConVal nearly took the lead in the fourth quarter when Jack Telofski intercepted a pass and returned the ball to the Kennett 3-yard-line, but the Eagles kept Cougars out of the end zone and forced a missed field goal. It was 14-14 heading to overtime.
