HOUSTON- Glenville-Emmons quarterback Zack Williamson scored the go ahead touchdown with one second left in the game as the fifth seeded Glenville-Emmons Wolverines eliminated the fourth seeded Houston Hurricanes from the Section 1A playoffs with a 20-14 win Tuesday in Houston.

“It was an unbelievable game,” GE coach Ryan Kelly said. “Without a doubt this was our best defensive effort of the year, and we were able to make just enough plays offensively to put points on the board at the right time.”

After Glenville-Emmons turned the ball over on their first drive, Houston scored a touchdown on the next play to take a 7-0 lead.
