Circus reception ranks No. 2 behind remarkable game-ending Hail Mary in Texas.
Armond Scott seemed surprised the ball even got to him. But the 6-foot-3, 200-pound Kentucky-bound receiver from
Euclid (Ohio) somehow made a juggling catch between three defenders, got to the end zone and landed in this week's high school football Top 10 plays.
Scott tipped the ball at least four different times before finally hauling in the 70-yard touchdown from
Malachi Davis, one of two scoring connections between the duo in their team's 30-20 playoff loss to St. Ignatius.
The crazy catch was bettered by one play, and that was a thriller — a 51-yard
Hail Mary on the game's last play as
Spring (Texas) beat rival Westfield 27-23.
Down 23-21, Spring quarterback
Bishop Davenport retreated to the 38, evaded a tackler, stepped up to the 41 and heaved the ball nearly 60 yards before junior wide receiver
Travis Sims somehow hauled it in at the goal line before falling in to the end zone.
