A Long-Awaited Win for Bayshore

When the final seconds ticked away, Bayshore had ended a rivalry drought that stretched back to 1991. Mackey confirmed the significance of the victory after the game.

"Yes, it has been that long," Mackey said in a text message.

The rivalry victory also drew one of Bayshore's largest home crowds in years.

Mackey estimated that at least 2,000 people attended Friday's game.

"The most I've seen at a Bayshore game in over 10 years," Mackey said.

The atmosphere grew particularly loud during Bayshore's second-half comeback, including when Stancil's deep pass found Wortham for the touchdown that set up Judge's game-tying two-point conversion.

Bayshore opened the season with a loss to Sarasota but has since defeated Sunlake, Parrish Community and Southeast to improve to 3-1.

The Bruins will try to extend their three-game winning streak Friday when they host unbeaten Hawthorne at 7 p.m.
