In a series where the winner is often determined by who makes the biggest or last play, Arrius Holleman did both.
Monterey’s big-play receiver split a double team on a slant and racing untouched 66 yards for the go-ahead touchdown with 51 seconds left, and the Plainsmen overcame three second-half turnovers and blocked a last-second field goal attempt to preserve a 28-27 victory against Coronado on Friday at Lowrey Field.
Having already hauled in a 46-yard touchdown catch after spotting Coronado the 14-0 first-quarter lead, Holleman caught the inside slant, got between the double team and raced down the sidelines for the game-winning score. The two touchdowns were his only two catches of the game.
“We were just trying to get the ball in the playmakers hands and that’s what I did,†Holleman said. “That’s all I got to say. We were trying to get it into the playmakers hands and I made a play.â€
