November 4, 1989 — Chris Andreas scores two touchdowns and Jim Thorpe’s defense comes up with a pair of interceptions in the game’s final four minutes to preserve a 20-14 victory over Bishop O’Reilly. Andreas reaches the end zone on an 10-yard run in the first quarter and crosses the goal line on another 10-yard run in the third frame. The Olympians, coached by George Yaniger, convert a 1st-and-28 on their game-winning drive as a 13-yard pass from Bryan Rehrig to Joe Kehrli sets up Greg Lazorick’s 1-yard TD plunge. Picks by Lazorick and Ted Williams seal the win.
