Plymouth South High School Wins Their First Conference Championship Courtesy of a Last Second Hook and Ladder Play
Foxborough, Mass. – Plymouth South High School’s Scott Fry has been named this week’s New England Patriots High School Coach of the Week in recognition of his team’s 13-12 comeback, last second victory over previously unbeaten Nauset High School on Friday, Nov. 9. The win clinches the Atlantic Coast title for the first time in school history. Following a Nauset touchdown with 40 seconds left in the game, Fry called a hook-and-ladder play on third down with 20 seconds remaining that resulted in a 62-yard game-winning touchdown.
Great play by Plymouth South blah, blah, blah. But how do you even look yourself in mirror if you’re Nauset? I mean I’ve never seen the hook and ladder play work in my life, nevermind falling for it on the last play of the game and giving up a 60 yard TD. It’s like that 1st and 3rd pickoff play in baseball. Everybody does it. Never works. Yet somehow Nauset acted like they’d never seen this play before. Like it was some elaborate trick play they never could have foreseen coming in this situation. Weird.
Awesome play by defense #13. He showed great awareness of the situation and exceptional speed in pursuit. Well done.
I seem to remember Boise State executing on this play flawlessly against Oklahoma. And I believe the West Canaan Coyotes pulled it off using a morbidly obese offensive lineman.
Yea, Boise St. did this in the Fiesta Bowl and then in the same game, pulled off a Statue of Liberty for the 2 point conversion for the win. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4s8vdzYwFU

Tony and Turner you are right but remember, Pres just said he’s never seen it work in his life. He doesn’t watch sports so that explains it. I’m sure he was knee deep in a project runway episode when that Fiesta Bowl was played.
A guy that stll keeps Neil on the payroll is going to comment on someone else’s failure? For sure not.
I had the under -26! Phew
Yet still can’t beat Plymouth North on Turkey Day.
Hook and ladder??? Are you fucking kidding me? Are you brain dead or is that just a stool joke i don’t know about?
Hook and lateral chief.
Freddie Mitchell and eagles22: Hook and ladder and hook and lateral are the same play. Thanks
Except in 2008 when Purdue executed a textbook hook and ladder for a td against, hmmm, was it feeble Nauset? Or was it the Prez’s alma mater, the Michigan Wolverines? No wonder El Prez still thinks the unranked Wolfies are good – he doesn’t actually follow them. And just for icing, the Oregon Ducks schooled the Wolfettes with a Statue of Liberty. This site may have sports in its title, Prez, but you stick to your teen beat blogs.
Only one term makes sense though, Corey Lidle.
plymouth has become a gross fucking town
Atlantic coast LEAGUE dummy, not a conference.
