GARDINER — York took advantage of Gardiner’s third turnover to score the winning touchdown in the fourth quarter, earning a 17-14 victory in a Class C football game Friday night.

Dawson Gundlah, a junior backup running back, broke several tackles on his way to the go-ahead 15-yard run, stiff-arming the last defender.

“It wasn’t really designed, but once I saw the hole, I decided to take it,” Gundlah said. “I wasn’t really thinking. I wanted to get in.”

Gardiner (1-3) had taken a 14-10 lead late in the third quarter when Tanner Hebert caught a swing pass from Cole Heaberlin in the left flat and scored from 17 yards.

York improved to 2-2.

WESTBROOK 21, NOBLE 14: Kyle Champagne had 20 carries for 150 yards and two touchdowns, and the Blue Blazes (2-2) opened a 21-7 halftime lead before holding off the Knights (1-3) in Westbrook.
