UMaine QB's Amazing End Zone Run Nominated for Play of the Year

An amazing play by University of Maine quarterback Chris Treister is gaining recognition across the nation.

In overtime against James Madison on October 8, the Black Bears scored a touchdown and needed to either kick a field goal to tie or make the two point conversion. Maine opted to go for the win and their bet payed off in a dramatic fashion. Treister made an incredible lunge into the end zone to lead the Black Bears to a 24-24 victory.

Check out the clip here of Treister hussling through multiple defenders and then bouncing off the other team--right into the promised land.

The amazing run was recently recognized as #2 on ESPN's Top-10 Plays.

Now it has been nominated for the GEICO College Football Play of the Year. To support UMaine and Treister's heroics, cast your vote on the GEICO Facebook page.
