Gut sick. That’s how head coach Mark Loureiro described the feeling that still lingered through the weekend, coming off a last-second touchdown by host Ripon that sent the varsity football Cougars to defeat on Friday night. After Escalon had taken a 15-12 lead late in the fourth quarter, Ripon answered with a drive of their own, capped off with a four-play sequence with no timeouts and less than 30 seconds on the clock, the final play a pass to the corner of the end zone hauled in with one hand, secured by the Indian receiver as he tumbled to the ground, crushing Escalon as he went.
