BAINS — Catholic-New Iberia stopped a two-point conversion run with about three minutes to play to preserve a 35-33 victory at West Feliciana in a Class 3A bidistrict state football playoff game Friday night.
The Saints (6-5) were in position to tie after Adrian Webb caught a 61-yard touchdown pass from DeShawn Morrison.
Trailing 21-7 at halftime, CHSNI (7-4), the No. 20 seed, outscored the Saints 28-6 to take a 35-27 lead in the fourth quarter.
CHSNI quarterback Taylor Bullock and Devin Boutte connected for two touchdown passes — a 36-yarder in the first quarter and a 15-yarder in the fourth quarter.
In the third quarter, Bullock also had an 8-yard TD run sandwiched between a 4-yard TD run from Thomas Theriot and a 15-yard Brady Rogers run that gave CHSNI a 28-27 lead.
WFHS, seeded 13th, ran for 384 yards, with the late touchdown pass accounting for most of the Saints’ 93 yards through the air.
Morrison had 157 yards, including touchdown runs of 9 and 15 yards, on 21 carries, while Roberto Johnson ran 13 times for 187 yards, including TD runs of 1 and 80 yards.

Latrelyn Pete ran for two touchdowns and Hunter Landry threw for a touchdown (a 37-yarder to Layne Theriot) and ran for another.
Class 1A
VARNADO 32, CATHOLIC-POINTE COUPEE 20: In Varnado, Laterrius Crumedy ran for 156 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries and passed for another touchdown as Varnado advanced.
