Scots hit 28-yard field goal as time expires to defeat McKinney in area round

Highland Park pulled off a thrilling victory in the area round of the Texas high school football playoffs Friday, hitting a game-winning field goal as time expired to take down McKinney. 

The Scots trailed by 15 points at halftime but stormed back in the second half to defeat the Lions, 22-21. After the game-winning field goal went through the uprights with no time left on the clock, Highland Park's entire team rushed the field in celebration.
