Durfee scored with 35 seconds left to tie the game at 14 and send it into overtime. With four downs from the 10, GNB Voc-Tech (3-6) went first and Joseph Brightman scored on a one-yard run and ran in the two-point conversion. Durfee answered with a touchdown of its own but the two-point conversion pass attempt was picked off by Michael Murphy to seal Voc-Tech’s second straight win. Harrison Cabral scored a 20-yard touchdown run in the second quarter and Brightman had a four-yard TD run in the third. McManus, who connected on two PATs, is tied for the school career record as a junior.
New Bedford 28, Framingham 8
The Whalers (2-7) captured their second straight win behind a balanced offensive attack. Amari Harris threw a pair of touchdowns passes, connecting with Dezmond Brunskill and Jahzed Valls. Brunskill had over 100 yards receiving while Valls also hauled in a two-point conversion. Zakari Nunes had a rushing touchdown and Calvin Cruz had a fumble recovery for a score and an interception. Isaiah Silva was 3 of 4 on extra points. “We played well in all three phases,” said New Bedford head coach Mark DeBrito. “We still have room for improvement, but have made great strides from where we were at in the beginning of the year.”
FIELD HOCKEY

No. 24 Bishop Stang came up short to ninth-seeded Triton in the Div. 3 Round of 32 to finish the season with a record of 7-8-4. Sydney Plouffe had Stang’s lone goal off an assist from Ava Pacheco. Julia Caron made 11 saves in net. “Stang field hockey played their best game of the season leading after the first half 1-0,” said head coach Kara Caron. “Unfortunately they gave up two unanswered goals in the second half, but Stang played their best field hockey of the season allowing the ninth seeded team in Division 3 to win by only one goal in this game.”
