The Flint Hill Huskies (5-4, 2-2) finished their high-school football season with a wild 47-46 seesaw home loss to the Maret Frogs on Nov. 5 in a Mid-Atlantic Athletic Conference game.
The Huskies had a chance to win, but missed a field goal of the 40-yard range on the game’s final play.
While the loss was disappointing for the team, the bounce-back season from an 0-9 record the year before showed much progress and improvement, according to second-year head coach Kirk Peterson.
“That was a tough loss and it stings. But we are trending,” Peterson said. “Last year, we only had one competitive game and gave up a lot of points. This year we won five games and could have won more. In the grand scheme of things, we came way up this season. We had that big comeback overtime win on the road at Norfolk Academy before a big homecoming crowd. We competed in every game until the end.”
