Oberlin Football Featured on ESPN Trick Plays of the Year

Watch The Top Five Trick Plays of the Year
 
Bristol, CT – The Oberlin College football team was featured on ESPN's Top Five Trick Plays of 2015, as the play known as "Bonanza" was ranked No. 4 on the network's list.
 
It came against the Little Giants of Wabash College as quarterback Lucas Poggiali and wide receiver Justin Cruz switched roles. Poggiali faked an audible call before sneaking out in the pattern. The snap went to Blake Buckhannon who then tossed it to Cruz and he threw it to Poggiali inside the right pylon.
 
"It was a great play call at a perfect time," Head Coach Jay Anderson said. "Our offensive coordinator Keith Grabowski is really creative and has a great mind for the game. He and the players who executed it deserve all the credit."
 
The play was one of two that came for the NCAA Division III ranks. Watch all five plays on ESPN.com.
