O
n Army’s last chance to recover from a two-goal deficit, Peter Dearth readied himself at the block ‘S’. The Black Knights’ James Pryor sprinted back to the 45-yard line, but Dearth, then a Syracuse senior, anticipated the clearance attempt. He lunged, extending his left arm and cradling the one-handed interception to smother any last hope for Army.
Like most games since his shift to defensive midfield, Dearth didn’t register a goal that afternoon. But as he tumbled onto the far-side 40-yard marker, he somersaulted to his feet and evaded Pryor one last time before flipping to Owen Seebold to carry into the attack area. Just over 5,400 fans packed the Carrier Dome, and Dearth’s clutch play, ensuing fist pump and holler at midfield spurned them to their feet.
