Camas trailed 25-14 with 9:30 to play in the fourth quarter -- and then arguably the greatest finish of the year broke out.

Drake Owen caught a fourth-down touchdown pass from Kyle Allen with 20 seconds left to win it for the Papermakers, who have won 54 consecutive games in the regular season. Camas has now won 18 in a row overall after going 14-0 in 2016.

Allen and Owen hooked up on Camas' touchdown with 1:04 remaining. That score capped a 97-yard drive that cut the Coeur d'Alene lead to 25-20. Owen then recovered the onside kick for the Papermakers, who used two passes and two pass interference penalties to get inside their opponents' 5-yard line.

On fourth down, Allen found Owen in the end zone to take the lead.

The Vikings took a 25-14 lead with 9:30 left when quarterback Colson Yankoff got loose for a 65-yard touchdown run. And Coeur d'Alene seemed to be on the verge of putting the game away for good on a late drive that saw them march inside the Camas 5-yard line.

But then there was a fumble -- and the rest will go down in history as one of the greatest rallies in Papermaker history.

Yankoff threw for 251 yards and a TD, and he rushed for 182 yards and a score. Shilo Morgan rushed for 120 yards and a score for the Vikings. Allen threw for 235 yards and three touchdown to lead Camas. Will Schultz had 127 yards rushing and a touchdown for the Papermakers. 

Morgan gave Coeur d'Alene the lead in the first quarter on a 13-yard touchdown run.

Camas took the lead at the half on a 10-yard pitch-and-catch from Allen to Ja'Michael Shelton to cap a 13-play, 86-yard drive, but it took just three plays in the second half for the Vikings to regain the lead. Yankoff found Kyler Prendergast, who ran most of the 57-yard touchdown play to regain the lead, 12-7.

Caleb Beggerly made it 19-7 when he got out of a jam and ran for a 38-yard score late in the third quarter.

Camas got three fourth-quarter touchdowns, though, to continue its streak.
