Arthur-Lovington wins by a point

The Arthur-Lovington Knights upset 2007 3A playoff team Fithian-Oakwood 20-19, punctuated with a last minute game-winning field goal by senior Dan Bolsen.

With a 7-7 tie at the half, the Knights went ahead on a Bolsen field goal to start the third quarter, and Fithian-Oakwood scored two touchdowns, but missed the extra point on each, and the Knights scored a touchdown on a touchdown run by Justin Schuring, and then Bolsen scored the field goal to win.

Below is a box score of the game. See Wednesday's News-Progress for an in-depth article, featuring interviews with Bolsen and coach Dale Schuring, stats and other details.
