Chris Young was not only the leading rusher for the Rocky Hill High School Football Team Friday night, he also blocked an extra point in the second quarter, which ended up being the difference in the game. As the Terriers went on to beat the Plainville High School Blue Devils 21-20.

Rocky Hill got on the board first with a seven-yard run by Brandon Renk in the first quarter. However, Plainville would respond with three straight scores in the second quarter.
