Double Overtime Win: Tigers in State Final

 

Columbus, Oh. - Loveland pulled some magic again in its 38-35 double-overtime victory over Zanesville in the DII State semi-final game played November 29.  The Tigers trailed with seconds remaining and got a score on a pass from quarterback Drew Plitt to Giavanni Ricci to send the game into overtime. Deja vu you say?  Well, the same magic occurred the week before against a  tough Mt. healthy squad when Mike Weber picked up a fumble and returned it 81 yards for a score with just over a minute remaining in the contest, giving the Tigers a 35-28 victory.  (From EECSports.com.)
