Quinten Greene had a hand in all of Norcom's points including a touchdown reception with 32 seconds remaining in the 4th quarter that gave the Greyhounds a 15-10 win over Lafayette. Greene's reception came on 4th-and-10 and he made the catch in the middle of the Rams defense. He also had a 85-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, he completed a 2-point pass, and he kicked the extra point.
Norcom trailed 10-8 with 3:22 to go in the game but Antonio Hines, who had a big game of the defensive side, recovered a fumble at the Lafayette 44-yard line to give Norcom another shot at winning the game. The Greyhounds tried a reverse on 4th-and-3 that resulted in a 15-yard loss but a personal foul penalty extended the drive for one more play.
Sophomore quarterback Jacoby Smith took advantage of the penalty by connecting with Greene for a 1st down and moments later, he found Greene for the winning touchdown.
Lafayette scored all their points in the 2nd quarter with the special teams playing the key role. Junior Mike Rodgers setup the first touchdown with a great punt return to the Norcom 14-yard line.
