The crew in this play booted the pooch. They should have had an untimed down 10 yards back from the spot of the block in the back and like Suudy said at least East Haven could have hoped for a fumble and a runback.

Hey, the turkey is cooking and we have to get home!
I am almost sure the conference was "why bother, lets go home." NFHS rules dictate another down should have been played if the penalty was accepted or the score should have rung up six additional points without a try for point as the score is meaningless.
