Jacob Jones’ catches included a 75-yard touchdown and a crucial third-down conversion as Crown Point won its first regional since 1988.
MISHAWAKA, Indiana — Crown Point’s Jacob Jones might not have run that fast before. That’s because the senior wide receiver was running like his football career depended on it. “This wasn’t going to be my last game playing,” he said. “I knew I had some room, so I just took off.” Those were the thoughts racing through Jones’ mind as he turned a screen pass into a 75-yard touchdown during a Class 6A regional championship game on Friday night.
“We told our players all week long that Penn’s special teams are probably the best in the country, and we all talked about how important special teams were going to be,” Buzea said. “We said it would come down to something like returning a punt or blocking a kick, and with all of the crazy stuff that went on in that game, it ended up being true.” Crown Point led 20-6 in the second quarter before Penn tied the game early in the third.
