Clutch plays down the stretch lifted the Dos Pueblos High flag football team to a 36-33 victory over Ventura on Tuesday night at Scott O’Leary Stadium.

Kacey Hurley tossed a 15-yard touchdown pass to Taylor Grant with 27 seconds remaining for the go-ahead score, and the Chargers took sole possession of first place in the Channel League with the come-from-behind victory.
