Kalama led 30-21 at halftime, then trailed 36-30 late in the fourth quarter. It came up with a turnover on downs deep in Napavine territory, then Esary forced in a 1-yard touchdown with 43 seconds left to force overtime.
There, Vance made one of his trademark circus catches and Esary scrambled around long enough to find a wide-open Vance in the back of the end zone for the winner.
Kalama plays the winner of Onalaska-Adna next week for the 2B crown.
