Rosemount converted a two-point conversion in overtime to upset host Eden Prairie 18-17 in the second round of the Class 6A state football tournament Friday. The Eagles will miss the quarterfinal round of the state tournament's largest class for the first time since 2004.
After Sam Thomas ran in a 10-yar touchdown for Eden Prairie on the first play of overtime, the Eagles kicked an extra point for a 17-10 lead.
Rosemount (7-3) then responded on its OT possession with Trevor Armborst throwing a 5-yard touchdown pass to Jake Ratzlaff. Armborst then completed a pass to Cadin Rudoll on the two-point conversion to complete the upset.
Eden Prairie has won seven big-school championships since last missing the final eight of the state tournament, most recently winning the Class 6A title in 2017.
