Houston Baptist ends short season with a 33-30 victory

RICHMOND, Ky. (AP) — Bailey Zappe threw for three touchdowns, Houston Baptist blocked a late PAT for a two-point conversion and the Huskies' completed their four-game season with a 33-30 win over Eastern Kentucky on Saturday.

EKU rallied from a 21-point halftime deficit to get within one with just over four minutes remaining after Parker McKinney threw a 27-yard score to Keyion Dixon. But the point-after kick was blocked and Tra Fluellen, who also had an interception, returned it for two points.

The Colonels (1-3) got the ball back with 2:22 remaining but McKinney fumbled on a scramble.
