3A high school football: Miners' goal of state title falls short in painful loss

2 min offense????? | 6:28 a.m. Nov. 14, 2009

Okay, I'm not a D1 college coach, but I do know that when you have the ball with 1:14 left on the clock and 95 yards to cover to win the game, you then pass. What the heck were the PC coaches thinking when they ran twice and ended up with 5 secs on the clock after two plays????? ....."Miners got a miracle chance with 1:14 left in the game.

A run from Dylan Chynoweth and then quarterback Eric Walker moved the ball down the field. But with 4.8 left in the game, the Tigers intercepted a pass to end the game"

Boys you played with heart and we are all so proud of you and what you accomplished! It was a joy to watch you play all year. Thanks!

okay, so the game didn't end the way we wanted it too. Let's stop bashing the coaches, they did the best they could. None of us were on the field.....it is so easy to sit up in the stands and coach saying they should of done this or that. They have to make a decision in a matter of seconds with no second chance. The boys on both teams played their hearts out and PC came out on the bottom. These boys are all winners in our hearts whether it is on the field or off the field. And the coaches are super people as well!! We love you all!! Good luck to HHS next week

2 FG not attempted? | 10:56 a.m. Nov. 14, 2009

should of kicked them when you had the chance, instead of going for the big TD 6 more points would of won the game for you. Well there is always next year not.

park city is terrible. if niether team made the mistakes they made like fumbles, interceptions, etc. hurricane would have dominated park city.

The chosen 2 just did not do the job for you, you should have used all your sons including the kicker who worked his tail off for the team

These coaches are wonderful people and we're proud to have had them for our sons' careers. You bloggers should all go into coaching since you seem to have the answers. I guess you'd have changed everything that got these kids to this point for this one game? The "chosen 2" as you call them played their hearts out, did their parts, and can hold their heads high. They both have a lot of football left to play in years to come and we wish them luck.

I want to congratulate the PC kids and coaches on a great season! Your young men gave it their all and we know ourselves how hard it is to lose. Best of luck in years to come!

Just 2 years ago the same stuff was being said regarding our coaches in Hurricane, now its like after a 2 year winning streak they can do no wrong. Feel bad for these PC coaches hope you ride it out next year they will all be on your bandwagon when your winning.

i have a lot of respect for every player on park city's team. they played hard and it was a tough game. at the end of the game they showed great sportsmanship. that is a tough thing to do after a big loss. good luck next year.

Clearly by these posts you can see the class of Hurricane. Thanks for your support for our boys and coaches. If people really knew these boys and their families they would not be so harsh and quick to judge. They are smart, service oriented, and most of all family.

GO get em Tigers your boys are amazing !
