Harold Delapp's 99-yard interception return epitomizes the late game grit of Raider seniors. The star defender, 6-1, 185 pounds, endured a taxing final drive, head bobbing with effort as he sprinted the length of the field. Delapp, known for his endurance, fulfills a lifelong dream in Friday's showcase.
Delapp grabbed a late game interception on the Page goal line and sprinted 70 yards to score as Andrews blocked two would be tacklers. Tim Overman delivered a crucial hit to seal the run and keep Andrews in the state semifinal picture.
