With incredible rally, Stepinac defeats White Plains in Turkey Bowl.

Down 0-18 halfway through the third quarter, the varsity comes back, and scores the winning touchdown with 32 seconds left.

Tim and the other JV starters dressed for the game, but none of them got in.

Here’s the Lohud article, and below it some pictures and a couple of videos I took. I didn’t have my monopod, so a little shaky.

Stepinac storms back to stun White Plains in Turkey Bowl

This is the second most attended high school football game in Westchester – probably 4-5,000 people. Here’s part of the crowd.

The White Plains HS sports facility is excellent.

Brigid, at the top of the stadium – and wearing her USS Winston Churchill hat. Did you know there was a destroyer in the US Navy named for Churchill?

Tim on the sideline. He’s #68, not his usual #40, which one of the varsity players already had.

I had not planned on doing any videoing, but when it came down to crunch time, in the last two minutes, I figured, why not? I didn’t have my trusty monopod – hence some shake. 

Here’s the winning touchdown, with 32 seconds. Dan Hoffer throwing to Christyn Lopez, who was the man in motion before the snap. If you listen, you’ll hear Brigid say something a bit amusing at the end of the video.

The final play of the game, as White Plains is stuck in their own end – and a bit of the celebration.
