One of the most underrated players on the Eleva-Strum football team has to be Mitchell Klopp. A 5-foot-10 and only 140 pounds, he doesn't look like much but the kid sure can move. He just had a nifty 12-yard TD run to give Eleva-Strum a 19-6 lead.
The Cardinals faked the extra point and appeared to get the two-point conversion. Holder Lance Rongstad flipped to Daniel Van Pelt, who threw it to a wide-open receiver, but the officials ruled that Rongstad's knee was down, thereby ending the play.
I had no idea that was the rule. Apparently if you fake the field goal, the holder can't have his knee down in high school. The general consensus in the press box is that the official blew the call. I'll see if I can find out more after the game.
