Great Oak scored their second touchdown of the game when senior running back Demetric Felton took the ball 55-yards into the end zone for a touchdown. The Wolfpack led 14-0 late in the third quarter in this tough , physical contest.
King’s offense finally got started as junior quarterback Brad Kleven tossed a 1 yard TD pass to Jason Gonzales to put the Wolves on the scoreboard. Moments later, King cornerback Chris Venable intercepted a Wolfpack pass to give King great field position.
Kleven took full advantage of the turnover and a few penalties and threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Terrance Thompson. The score was all locked up 14-14 as the fourth quarter began.
Great Oak had a couple of opportunities to win it in the fourth quarter. The Wolfpack had a 4th and 79 to go. Demetric Felton took the ball and raced into the end zone for what appeared to be the winning score.
The touchdown was nullified by a holding penalty, one of 14 penalties that Great Oak was flagged for in the game.
As time expired Great Oak attempted a 48 yard field goal but the kick was just wide right and sent the game into overtime.
In the first overtime both teams managed to score on field goals and the score was 17-17 as they headed into double overtime. Great Oak ran a reverse on the first play in the period and fumbled the ball deep in their own territory and turned the ball over to King. The Wolves again took advantage of the Wolfpack miscue as Gonzales ran the ball 18 yards for the winning score on the 3rd play of double overtime to win 23-17.
The Wolfpack will be traveling to Moreno Valley next week to play Rancho Verde. The Mustangs are coming off a huge 4926 victory over Murrieta Mesa. King is 1-0 and heads to Paloma Valley Friday night. The Wildcats were crushed 61-7 by Vista last night.
