By Brett Hein and Patrick Carr - | Sep 24, 2021

PLAIN CITY — Trey Talbot punched in a 12-yard touchdown run in overtime and Davis High football won on the final play of the game for the second straight week, defeating Fremont 27-24 on Friday night after forcing overtime on a last-second touchdown.

Fremont (3-4, 1-2 Region 1) held a 14-7 halftime lead on a 36-yard touchdown run from Kyler Kotter and, with QB Cannon Kofford sidelined, a 19-yard scoring throw from Bodee Goins to Hayden Hall. The lone first-half score for Davis (4-3, 2-1) was a Jackson Stevens to Easton Baggett 6-yard score early in the second quarter.

The rest of the action came in the fourth quarter or later. Dakoda Kempthorne carried in a 2-yard rush for Davis to make it 14-14 early in the fourth. Fremont appeared poised to win when Kotter scored from 9 yards out with 2:08 left.

But Davis finished an 11-play, 80-yard drive with hardly a second to spare when Stevens hit Talbot for a 12-yard touchdown pass with 3 seconds left, sending it to overtime.

Dax Iverson put through a 21-yard field goal to open OT for Fremont, setting up the Davis winner.

Fremont outgained Davis 335-257.

For Davis, Stevens finished 20 of 33 for 194 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. Baggett caught eight balls for 61 yards, Talbot six for 64, and Max Painter five for 59.

For Fremont, Kotter rushed 27 times for 145 yards and the two scores. Kofford was 5 for 5 for 43 yards before being knocked out. Goins finished 13 of 25 for 133 yards, one TD and one INT. Hall caught 12 balls for 97 yards.
