, there's something fishy about this whole win scenario... Like, how did they even know exactly when to kick that field goal? It's too perfect, you know? And what was up with Charlie Ball's pick-six? That seemed way too easy for him. Was it planned or did he just happen to be in the right place at the right time? 
I'm not saying they cheated or anything (I don't think they would dare, lol), but something just doesn't add up about this whole thing... Maybe it's just my conspiracy theorist brain being too active again 
.
i'm pretty sure st ignatius high school must've had some crazy team bonding exercises or something to pull off that comeback, am i right? and yeah 40 yard field goal is wild 
do you think mckeon's kick was gonna sail through the posts all along or did he get lucky 
I'm totally stoked

waiting for that last-minute field goal 
and McKeon nailed it

can't even begin to describe how amazing that game was 
Thomas McKeon is a hero bro 
and Charlie Ball's pick-six was pure magic 
can't believe Sacred Heart Cathedral let this slip away 
! I mean, who saw that coming? 
and it's so awesome to see them dominate on the field like this. Thomas McKeon's walk-off field goal was insane 
! The fact that Charlie Ball made that incredible pick-six is just icing on the cake
