Mana Pauu’s three-yard touchdown run with three seconds left in the second quarter has given Servite a 7-2 halftime lead over Orange Lutheran.

Servite had the ball on offense just three possessions in the first half. A fumble and bad snap that led to a safety hurt the Friars. But they started a 15-play drive from their own seven with 5:30 left in the second quarter. Three different players named Pauu contributed. Mana Pauu had a five-yard run and caught an 18-yard pass. His cousin, Neil, caught a 16-yard pass. Neil’s brother, Butch, caught an 18-yard pass.

It was a drive the Pauu family could be proud of.
