It was a game of highs and lows that ended on a very high note when Jason Waguespack's PAT in overtime gave the Comets a thrilling 7-6 overtime win over the 10-AAA Lawless Pythians  Friday night at Dupuy stadium in LaPlace. 

For four quarters the Comets squandered  several scoring opportunities by a series of penalties, fumbles, and mental mistakes. Those opportunities came packaged in the form of 4 turnovers and good field position all night long. Despite that the Comets finished regulation with no points. The Comet defense held Lawless out of the endzone during regulation and that gave SCC a chance to post its second win of the season and improve their record to 2-1.

After a scoreless regulation, Lawless went on offense first and scored on  3rd down on a four yard run. Chris Canciennne blocked the PAT attempt which proved to be crucial later on. On the Comets second play of overtime Jason Waguespack tossed a 10 yard pass to Phil Hoffman in the corner of the endzone to tie the game. Then Waguespack who earlier missed on 3 field  attempts booted the PAT to give the Comets a  7-6 win  in a hard fought contest that was  up for grabs.

The Comet defense pitched a shut out and came up with 4 big turnovers during regulation. Defensive backs Anthony Jacob and Matt Arceneaux intercepted Lawless passes while Jacob and Gabe Sellars recovered  Pythian fumbles. 

The Comets return home next Friday night to host AA Newman. Kickoff is at 7:00 p.m.
