TAMA — For the second time this season, Pella Christian scored a late touchdown and looked to take the lead with a two-point conversion, but for the second time they would come up short and would fall on Friday at South Tama in a 28-27 loss.

It was a back and forth affair all night long. PC led 7-6 after the first and 14-13 at halftime. The Trojans then tied it up at 21-21 after the third and were eventually able to hold on for the win.
