OLIVIA - Troy Diggins threw an 80-yard touchdown pass to Preston Herfurth with just over a minute left in the fourth quarter to lift Montevideo past BOLD 12-6 in a Mid State District game on Friday.
The teams played to a scoreless first half before Diggins scored on an one-yard run in the third quarter. BOLD tied the game a quarter later when Brad Wolff found the end zone from three yards out.
The third consecutive win improves Montevideo to 4-1, while BOLD fell to 2-3, the first time the Warriors have been under .500 five games into the season since 2007.
BOLD threatened after Herfurth’s TD catch, but an interception in Montevideo territory with just seconds left ended the Warriors’ bid for a game-tying touchdown.
Diggins threw for 122 yards with 113 of them going to Herfurth on three completions. Reece Kuhlmann had a team-high 67 rushing yards on 17 carries.
Conner Riley ran for 87 yards and Austin Einerson chewed up another 67 yards for BOLD.
Next Friday Montevideo hosts Benson and BOLD is at Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City.
