Serra, which once lost 34 straight games to West Catholic Athletic League rival St. Francis, pulled out one of the better games in league history with a 41-40 overtime thriller over The Chronicle’s No. 2 team Saturday in San Mateo.
Leki Nunn, the reigning WCAL Player of the Year who accounted for 380 yards and six touchdowns, completed an 8-yard two-point conversion pass to Shane Villaroman to set off a wild celebration.
A 1-yard TD plunge from sophomore Opeti Fangupo closed the gap to 33-30, but a 36-yard field-goal attempt by teammate Matt Keeth missed with 2:02 to go.
The Lancers got the ball back one more time and drove down to set up a potential game-tying 47-yard field goal by Keeth with three seconds left.
Serra was flagged 15 yards and after another offside penalty, Keeth narrowly made a 26-yard field goal, sending the game into overtime.
Javon Sturns rushed 12 times for 125 yards and two scores and Miles Kendrick completed 6 of 8 passes for 165 yards and three touchdowns — all to Anthony Flores (four catches, 152 yards), lifting the Warriors (6-0, 3-0) to the WCAL victory at City College of San Francisco.
Senior quarterback Phillip Tran ran in from 39 yards out leading visiting Mitty (4-2, 2-1) to a 23-0 lead en route to the convincing win over St. Ignatius (3-3, 1-2), which got six catches and two TDs from Richard McDonough.
Hunter Juarez returned two interceptions for touchdowns, leading No. 18 Marin Catholic-Kentfield (5-2, 4-0 Marin County Athletic League) to a 56-0 win at Terra Linda-San Rafael (2-4, 1-3).
