In a game that featured several momentum shifts and a 30-minute lightning delay, Pickens Academy found itself needing an extra point to tie the game after an Aiden Johnson pass to Rafe Brown.
Looking over at the sideline, Pickens Academy head coach Scotty Pennington was holding up two fingers. It was all or nothing for the Pirates, as they went for two points and the win.
PA had rode tailback Chandler Box for tough yardage all night, so Pennington decided to call his number once more. The junior picked up the three yards and the rest is history. The Pirates defeated Banks Academy 41-40 in a game that was played at Briarwood Christian’s field in Birmingham.
