Piqua Football got back in the playoff hunt Thursday night against Vandalia Butler.
Tied 27-27 with 2:14 left in the game on the Aviators' 30-yard-line, Indians quarterback Austin Davis found Hayden Schrubb on 4th and 7 for a game-winning touchdown strike.
But that might not have been enough without future Ohio State walk-on linebacker Ben Schmiesing, who also handled platoon running back duties, ending the Aviators' penetrating rebuttal drive with a game-ending strip of Jake Demoss.
Schmiesing will make an impact in Columbus.
