Two-point conversions are determining more high school football outcomes each season. That was the case again Wednesday night.

Wayzata held on for a 30-28 victory over Anoka, the No. 6-ranked team in Class 6A according to the Associated Press poll compiled by the Minnesota Star Tribune, when the Tornadoes' two-point conversion pass fell incomplete following a touchdown with 8 minutes, 20 seconds remaining. The Tornadoes (5-3) pulled within two on senior quarterback Peyton Podany's 65-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Trey Borchers.

Anoka got the ball back one last time but turned it over on downs with just over three minutes remaining at the Wayzata 43-yard line when a running play on fourth-and-2 came up short of a first down. The Trojans (4-4) then ran out the clock.

Wayzata took a 30-22 lead with three touchdowns and two successful two-point conversion runs in the third quarter. Junior quarterback Matthew Berkland threw two touchdown passes less than two minutes apart late in the quarter, connecting with junior wide receiver Sam Booh on a 75-yarder and senior wide receiver Tony Ley from 7 yards out.

Podany and Borchers also hooked up for a 20-yard touchdown in the third quarter, followed by a successful two-point conversion run. Senior Zach Welch scored on two touchdown runs of 3 and 28 yards in the first half for the Tornadoes.

Wolverines cancel season

Wadena-Deer Creek (1-7) has made the decision to forgo the remainder of its football season, including the postseason, citing low numbers of participants due to a rash of injuries. The Wolverines forfeited their regular-season finale Wednesday to Staples-Motley. In a letter posted to the team's Facebook page, Wolverines coach Kyle Petermeier cited injuries for the lack of available varsity-level players. He anticipates the return of varsity football in 2025.
