Mike Ancona’s 29-yard rushing touchdown gave Clearview a 14-7 win over Kingsway in double-overtime on Friday night in a game that didn’t see its first score until the fourth quarter. The Dragons had a final chance on the ensuing possession from nine yards out on fourth down, but their pass fell incomplete.

Elias Collins put the first points of the game on the board with a 16-yard run and Nicholas Tanzola converted the PAT to give Kingsway a 7-0 lead. Ancona then found Rashaan Thompkins for a 23-yard touchdown reception with 2 minutes, 14 seconds remaining in regulation to tie the game after Hunter Logan’s converted PAT. Clearview did have a chance to win the game in regulation, but a 45-yard field goal attempt from Logan went wide left with just under 11 seconds remaining. Both teams missed field goals in the first overtime, Kingsway from 32 yards away and Clearview from 54.
