The third time wasn’t the charm, so Joe Foy had to make it work the fourth time around.

Foy scored on South River’s fourth rushing attempt from Severna Park’s 1-yard line with 7 minutes, 32 seconds left in the fourth quarter for the winning score as the visiting Seahawks won a back-and-forth contest with the Falcons, 28-21, Friday night.

Foy rushed 31 times for 188 yards and two big second half scores as South River (3-2), which saw a 14-0 lead disappear by the third quarter, scored the last 14 points of the game. Foy also had a 66-yard touchdown run in the third quarter on the next play from scrimmage after the Falcons took its first lead of the game on a 78-yard run by Josh Coffman. Foy had 158 yards rushing in the second half alone. Coffman, meanwhile, had two touchdown runs in the game, as he also scored from 13 yards out in the second quarter.

Caleb Edney threw for 207 yards and two touchdowns, both to Ryan Proctor, who had six catches for 162 yards for South River. Frankie Cole and Sean Leonard had interceptions for the Seahawks, while Ka’Ron Lewis and Sean O’Hara each had a sack.

Coffman led Severna Park with 88 yards rushing, while Joe Jennings added 68 yards on the ground. Colin Meehan blocked a punt and returned it 20 yards to give Severna Park a 21-14 lead in the third quarter. Drew Jeffries had an interception for the Falcons, and Ryan Bloom had a fumble recovery. The Falcons’ last drive ended at the 5-yard line.

Glenelg 35, Reservoir 18: The host Gladiators (4-1) put together a strong second-half performance to top the Gators (1-3).

Starting at their own 39-yard line, the Gladiators put together an 11-play, seven-minute drive that ended with a Kyle Dry rushing touchdown from 13 yards out. By the time Reservoir got possession, more than half of the quarter elapsed. Plus, the Gators faced a 28-6 deficit.

Field hockey

No. 13 Arundel 2, No. 4 Broadneck 1: Caroline Keane scored with 3:50 left in regulation and the host Wildcats (5-3-2) held on to upset the Bruins (4-1-1).

Caroline’s father, who works for the United States Secret Service, was in attendance Thursday as part of a law enforcement appreciation event organized by the teams.

“I knew it was the last couple minutes of the game and I knew we needed one because it was tied,” Caroline Keane said. “I just saw the far post open, so I just tried to hit it there.”

The go-ahead goal came off a penalty corner and came a little more than a minute after Wildcats’ goalie Tia Lysse made a nice save to keep the game tied.

“We’ve been really focusing on capitalizing on our corners,” Arundel coach Carrie Vosburg said. “We’ve been focusing on finalizing and finishing, so it’s nice to actually see it come to frution.”

The Wildcats fell behind by two goals before rallying for the victory on Monday. They spotted the Bruins the opening goal on Thursday, but tied the game late in the first half when Sara Pique scored on a penalty stroke.

“The stroke was huge,” Vosburg said. “It evened out the playing field, and I do think in the second half we had a lot of momentum going for us.”

Sammy Dupcak scored Broadneck’s goal off a penalty corner eight minutes into the game. The Bruins were able to keep the game tied the rest of the way thanks to the play of Peri Long, who finished with 14 saves.

“Peri did a great job,” Broadneck coach Jen Plack said. “She had some really good saves.”

The Bruins fell for the first time on Thursday and will face Archbishop Spalding, North County and Severna Park next week.
