The Manteca Jaguars needed some last-minute heroics to get past the Los Banos Wildcats in last Saturday’s Cen-Cal Junior Football League’s NFC Division action.

Julian Serrano‘s 2-yard touchdown with two seconds left in the game gave the varsity Jaguars a 22-16 victory.

The winning score was setup by Kameron Beamon, who caught a pass from Gerson Gomez with 39 seconds left, rambling down to the Los Banos 2.

Seuseu Altofaituli also had a TD while picking up 48 yards on four carries.

On defense, Tydus Verhoeven sparked the Jags with six tackles and two sacks.
