-- 2007 5A Division I State Semifinals: Euless Trinity 30 Plano 27 (2 OT) -- Before the game even began, both Trinity and Plano coaches knew it would be the game of a lifetime, and it would turn out to be just that. Plano came out strong in the first quarter, scoring 7 points to Trinity's 3. This deficit fired up the Trinity offense led by QB Denarius McGhee, and the Plano defense allowed them to score 14 unanswered points. Both scores were by the previously injured RB Dontrayevous Robinson, who broke his ankle in the regular season finale against cross-town rivals, Hurst Bell. This seemed to be no burden though, as Robinson leaped in for a 1-yard score, and caught a 34-yard pass from McGhee for the second. Despite leading 17-7 at this point in the second quarter, Plano wasn't going to give up a chance of going to the state championship just yet. With less than 5 minutes kin the first half of regulation, Plano and RB Rex Burkhead pounded its way down the field to set up the scoring pass from Plano QB Carson Meger to WR Grant Davis to make it a three-point game just before halftime. Quickly after halftime, Plano ran down the field and the clock for another score, giving them the lead nearing close to the final period of regulation. Making up for the 14 points given to the Trojans in the second period, the Wildcats held Trinity to none in the third, giving them some momentum going into the last 12 minutes.. Trinity came out running, though, and behind RB Samir Baker, capped a 80-yard drive with an ending 37-yard TD run by Baker still with plenty of time left for Plano to score. With the weight of the world on their shoulders, the Plano offense returned to the field for the final drive to victory.. They began a great drive, but as they entered the red-zone, the Sea of Black crowded Meger as he tried to gain a few yards after the Trinity defense shut down their play. Trinity DT Robert Griffin caused the potential game-ending fumble on Trinity's 21-yard line that was recovered by the Sea of Black, narrowing the gap for any comeback by the dispirited Plano Wildcats.. The Wildcat offense sat and watched on the bench, hoping for a miracle to happen in the final minute of the football game. DB/WR Justin Collins answered their prayers on a 3rd down play by causing and recovering a fumble by the Trojans. The Trinity defense was still pumped as they held Burkhead a yard shy of a first down that could potentially cause the end of the game, forcing Plano to kick for the tie. The kick slipped in with ease, and the game headed into the first overtime. Both defenses held their opponent to a field goal in the first extra period, and as they headed into the second overtime, the score was still tied 27-27. Plano began with the ball, but struggled, and to their despair were stuck in a rut on the 25-yard line, forced to kick. Things only got worse when they saw that the ball fell short of the goal-posts, resulting in a miss. Trinity fans cheered at this sight, and their offense jogged onto the field for possibly the winning score. After Samir Baker tore through the once-solid Plano defense, the Trojans saw themselves on the 2-yard line, awaiting the kick by their beloved kicker, Pery Negreiros. Used to the pressure, Negreiros split the uprights for the winning kick, and the final score of 30-27. Submitted by Hunter Freeman on texasfootball.com
