BRASHER FALLS — The St. Lawrence Central football team brought out the best in Gouverneur on Saturday.

Gouverneur (4-0) scored 13 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to pull out a 19-16 Northern Athletic Conference victory over upset-minded St. Lawrence.

“This group has learned how to win and today we made the big plays when we had to,” Gouverneur coach Sean Devlin said.

Wildcats quarterback Mark Horne completed 6-of-11 passes for 101 yards and carried eight times for 59 yards. Tanner Spillman gained 76 yards on 10 carries.

Gouverneur rallied on the first play of the fourth quarter on a 50-yard pass play from Horne to Cody Woods that went for a touchdown, cutting St. Lawrence’s lead to 16-13. Gouverneur then blocked an SLC punt to set up another touchdown three plays later on Horne’s run from 7 yards out to give the Wildcats their first lead of the game.

The Larries (0-4) drove the ball to the Gouverneur 16 yard-line on their next possession but were stoped on a fourth-down fumble.

Jesse Greer ran 135 yards on 27 carries and Devon Euto had 92 yards on 17 carries for SLC.

TUPPER LAKE 41, CANTON 14

Three touchdowns in the second quarter sparked Tupper Lake past host Canton.

Mitch Keniston scored on short runs of seven and one and threw an 11-yard pass to Brandon Matt Duchaine in the quarter.

Canton received a 69-yard run from Peyton VanBibber in the third and Jay Proulx hauled in a 20-yard touchdown from Hunter Yerdon.

SANDY CREEK 41, PORT BRYON 0

Wyatt Bush scored three touchdowns and gained 114 yards on the ground as the Comets remained unbeaten with an impressive Section 3 Class D interconference win over Port Byron at Sandy Creek. The game was postponed Friday night because of a lack of officials.
