” Seguin still had enough time to score a touchdown to keep its season alive. The Matadors moved the sticks, converting two first downs on the final possession. But senior receiver Nik Henry couldn’t haul in a pass from junior quarterback Corey Dailey on a fourth down that turned the ball over on downs. AJ and Alex Franco embraced each other as the final buzzer rang and walked to midfield together to soak in the moment. “It’s an unbelievable moment,” AJ Franco said.
