Lakota East denies decisive late run

Loveland was denied on a two-point conversion with 37 seconds remaining, as the Tigers fell to Lakota East, 35-34 on Friday.

Quarterback Drew Plitt ran in a five-yard touchdown in the final minute, which cut the lead to one, but he was stuffed on his ensuing run.

Lakota East’s Tyler Glenn had put the Thunderhawks ahead 33 seconds earlier with a 20-yard TD run that made it 35-28. Neither team led by more than seven the entire game.

Loveland will host Lebanon next week while Lakota East travels to Pickerington North.
