West Gets Unlikely Win In Shrine Bowl

Down 21-20 with less than two minutes left in the game and having just turned it over in the red zone for the third time, the West needed something miraculous to happen to end its two-game losing streak in the annual East-West Shrine Bowl.  Then the unexpected happened.
West defensive backs Zach Helbing and Tanner Orand combined to stuff East quarterback Brandon Mlekus in the end zone for a game-winning safety as the West pulled off an improbable 22-21 victory Sat. Night in  El Dorado.
