 On Thursday-2-October, the Bogota Football Bucs hosted the Weehawken Indians on

Bogota’s Adrien Ventura tried for a 50-yard field goal, but it fell short.
  Both Head Coaches and the Officials met at the 50-yard line to explain what will happen next.

 The Indians had the ball first in the second overtime. This time Dylan Hablitz threw a 25-yard  Touchdown pass to Donovan Alves with the conversion being stopped by the Bucs defense. With Bogota’s chance with the ball, Jayden Gonzalez ran to his right for a 6-yard Touchdown. Adrien Ventura’s Extra Point kick had the distance and precision enough to sail threw the uprights to secure a 61 to 60 Bogota win.
 After the two teams congratulated each other for what they had just experience, the Bogota Students had the chance to share the moment with their schoolmates.
 Jayden Gonzalez  threw for 207 yards with 3 Touchdown Passes going 7 for 14. He also ran for 200 yards and 4 rushing Touchdowns for a total of 407 yard with 7 Touchdowns. Jaidin Gonzalez finished with 148 yard with 2  Touchdowns in receptions. Adrien Ventura made 7 out of 9 Extra Points. Bogota ended the game with 694 yards in total.
 This year at least one other game had over 100 Points. This was on Thursday-11-September when Iona Prep beat Paramus Catholic 58 to 48 with 106 points in regulation.
Bogota’s record is now 4-2. They next play on Friday-10-October when they travel to Wood-Ridge with a 7:00p kick-off.
