POST PHOTOS/JIM PHILLIPS Raiders A team pulls out big win over Huskies It’s Monday morning, and ev- eryone that was at the A-team football game featuring the Kingston Township Raiders and the Kingston Huskies is just start- ing to catch their breath, because this game had to be the most exciting mini football game ever played. After going up 6-0 on a first ever touchdown by fill-in full- back Pat Rother, the Raiders got pushed back on their heels in the Eo third period. Kingston scored in the third and then again in the fourth period leaving it ahead 12- 6 with two minutes to play. On the second offensive play after the two-minute break, Ken Regan ran his third wing reverse of the day 45 yards to paydirt, tying the game at 12. Drew Hiller and Steve Fritz had crucial blocks to break Regan free. The game ended with the score tied at 12. As rules stipu- late, each team has four chances to score from the 10 yard line to break the tie. With third down and 5 to go, @B Brian Ostrowsky rolled left and hit Ken Regan in the corner of the end zone. The defense toughed it out and held the Huskies from scoring in their four tries. The Raiders are 5-2 with their last season game next Sunday at Memorial Stadium against Dallas.
