On a wet, windy night in New London, the Rams came out on top of a seesaw battle that featured four lead changes, holding off the fourth seeded New London Whalers in dramatic fashion, 27-26, to advance to CIAC Class L Semi-finals. After a touchdown with 1:45 remaining in the game by Kyle McKinnon, New London’s star running back, the Whalers decided to go for the two-point conversion that would’ve given them the lead over the Rams and essentially won the game, but came up short when the Rams’ defensive end, senior Dylan Leeming knocked McKinnon out of bounds just short of the end zone, sealing the victory for the New Canaan, sending the Rams’ faithful into euphoria.
