It seemed like Blackhawk would pull off a second consecutive win to start the 2016 season after they took a 21-7 lead into the halftime break.

As it turns out, the Planets did not align in favor of the Cougars.

Caleb Brake capped off a monumental comeback with a 39-yard field goal as time expired, as Mars scores 24 unanswered points to defeat Blackhawk 24-21 at Northwestern Stadium, as heard on 1230 WBVP. Both Mars and Blackhawk are now 1-1 in the Northern Nine Conference (4A) and overall.

Carl Jaszcar of Blackhawk and Garrett Reinke of Mars were tonight’s CCBC Players of the Game.
