When it came down to the end, the third extra point of the night off the foot of Rodrigo DeMelo made the difference. DeMelo hit all three extra points after Cougar touchdowns on Friday night; visiting Liberty hit just two of three and Escalon walked off a 21-20 winner. For a team that is still trying to find its rhythm on defense and has been hit and miss offensively, the win in the home opener brought a bit of satisfaction.
