Henryetta football fans were treated to one of the best defensive ball games in recent years Friday as the Knights took on Eufaula in the first round of 2A playoffs.
Eufaula may have been ranked number five in the state but the Knights kept up play by play coming close to taking a place in the second round of the state playoff brackets.
It was not to be as time ran out before Henryetta could overcome a 14-12 deficit.
The Knights scored first in the chilly contest at Eufaula but the Ironheads would strike back with two more touchdowns putting the two conversion kicks through the uprights.
The conversion attempts failed for Henryetta leaving the Knights two points behind.
