This high school team won in the last 3 seconds with SIX LATERALS

YES!

This play shouldn’t be possible, but here we are.

The final three seconds of this Massachusetts JV game between Mansfield and North Attleborough was less football, and more like rugby — and it was totally amazing. These kinds of near-hopeless lateral-filled plays are always goofy, but let this one be a lesson in why a team should never, ever give up.

The kickoff is short to prevent the risk of a return touchdown, and the ball is fielded at the 32. What ensues in a series of laterals that causes Mansfield to turn upfield at its own 2-yard line, at which time No. 23 finds daylight up the sideline and somehow makes it happen.

These are the best plays.
