Freedom quarterback Jimmy Kealy ran for three touchdowns and the Patriots scored twice in a span of 42 seconds of the third quarter Friday night in a 38-29 upset of Olympia. <\/p>\n
Kealy scored on runs of 2, 17 and 6 yards the final touchdown coming midway through the fourth quarter and sealing the victory. <\/p>\n
Olympia running back John Armstrong also ran for three touchdowns <\/p>\n
\"It felt really good to get three touchdowns rushing,\" Kealy said. \"The first two games we have been passing a lot and we threw a good bit tonight, but we thought we would be able to run. The offensive line was blocking really good.\" <\/p>\n
The game turned around in that 42-second span of the third quarter. <\/p>\n
Olympia (1-2), No. 5 in the Sentinel Super 16, held a 21-14 lead at halftime but mistakes by the Titans were costly in the third quarter. <\/p>\n
Freedom (2-1), No. 16 in the rankings, got the 17-yard run by Kealy with 9:30 left in the third. Twice on the extra point try, Olympia was penalized, moving the ball to inside the 1. Instead of trying for the extra point a third time, Freedom coach Andy Johnson sent his offense on the field and Kealy scored the 2-point conversion, putting the Patriots up 22-21. <\/p>\n
Then on the kickoff, the Patriots used a squib kick. <\/p>\n
An Olympia player trying to field the ball slipped on the field and Freedom's Robin Nezius recovered at the Olympia 33. Four plays later Devin Cortese scored on a 10-yard run with 8:48 left in the third quarter. <\/p>\n
The mistakes continued for Olympia, as receiver Joe Gallagher couldn't hang onto a pass after he got free deep and quarterback Deondre Francois' pass was tipped in the end zone and intercepted by Stephon Williams. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
