Bozeman football rallies past Oak Hall for first playoff win since 2023

After falling behind early, No. 5 Bozeman football responded with a dominant offensive performance, scoring 47 unanswered points to defeat No. 4 Oak Hall 47-14 in the first round of the FHSAA Independent North B Bracket Thursday, Nov. 12. The victory marks the Bucks' first playoff win since their Final Four run in 2023 and gives first-year head coach Sean Maddox and his team another week to keep their season alive. "It's a good feeling," Maddox said. "The guys had a good week of practice and came out and executed. We're in a way better place now. The guys are still winding down a little bit. They're still wearing off all that excitement." Quarterback Hayden Gay accounted for four touchdowns. The senior threw three touchdown passes, connecting twice with receiver Rylee McNeil on scoring strikes of 25 and 35 yards. He also found receiver Jay Hentz for a 60-yard touchdown. Gay added a rushing touchdown of his own on a 5-yard run. Bozeman's running game turned in its best performance of the season, with Caleb Hentz finding the end zone on a 14-yard run, Blake Durham adding a 10-yard touchdown and Bryant Bragg capping the scoring with a 6-yard touchdown

Niceville's season comes to an end on Pace last-second TD

NICEVILLE — In today's MaxPreps-driven, Wild Wild West atmosphere of Florida high school football, where every two years a new playoff format enters the foray and coaches are jockeying for position in a non-transparent formula, there's a thin line between district champ and sitting out the playoffs. Niceville went from the former to the latter in the final 20 seconds of Wednesday night's District 1-5A title game against Pace at Eagle Stadium. UP 25-24 with 20 seconds left, the Eagles had done everything in their power to hoist district hardware and flip the narrative on Adron Robinson's first year at the helm. Deagan McCoy drove the Eagles 79 yards in 2:34, the junior connecting with Jakobe Gilyard for a 14-yard touchdown and then Caleb Leonard for the go-ahead 2-point conversion on a gutsy decision by Robinson. Only, a mistake was made. Leonard spiked the ball to draw the unsportsmanlike flag, turning a routine touchback on the ensuing kickoff into a Pace opportunity with the ball moved 15 yards back. Vote now: FPL Athlete of the Week for Oct. 26-31 Still, only 20 seconds remained. Not an eternity. The ensuing kick was meant to go up the left side, but instead
