Metter 34, Harlem 33

How the game was won: Curt Muns caught a touchdown pass from Owen Price in the first overtime but Harlem failed on its fake extra point try, giving Metter the one-point victory. Metter scored first in overtime when Tremendus Burke scored on a two-yard touchdown run, which was followed by the game-winning extra point.

Top performers: Metter's second half offense was the difference in the game. Coming back from a 27-14 deficit at halftime, their 23-yard rushing touchdown with minutes to go in regulation tied the score at 27. …Their defense also came through causing two big interceptions. The first one came in the first quarter when Alijeraude Dekle ran an interception back nine yards for a touchdown. …Harlem was led by quarterback Owen Price who threw three touchdown passes, two of which went to Bailey Postell.
