The Junction City Blue Jays ( 7-1 ) rallied from a 10-7 halftime deficit to defeat the Seaman Vikings ( 6-2 ) 20-13 Friday night in Topeka.
Junction City got on the board on their opening drive when quarterback Ryan Hennington hit tight end Alonzo Range on a 19-yard touchdown pass play. After Seaman countered with a drive ending in a field goal the defenses took over. There was only one more scoring play in the first half when the Vikings culminated a drive with a one-yard touchdown run by quarterback Dalton Cowan.
In the third quarter the Blue Jays put two touchdowns on the board…one on a two-yard touchdown run by Tim Bell and the other a one yard run by Hennington. But Seaman made another charge in the fourth quarter with a 20-yard field goal by Walker Bassett. In the final 1:19 of the ballgame the Vikings had the ball one final time but could not score.
