Overtime decided Tuesday’s Class 5A, Section 2 football quarterfinal at Waconia.
With a 13-12 victory, Chaska advanced to a semifinal set for 3 p.m. Saturday at top seed and defending Class 5A state champion Chanhassen.
Hawks quarterback Matthew Welter ran for the overtime touchdown. Sam Summer, who kicked two field goals in the third quarter, added the point-after attempt to seal the outcome.
A failed field goal attempt that ended the first half and two failed point-after attempts later played a large role in the loss for fourth-seeded Waconia (4-5).
