Recap

After receiving the ball to start the game, the Bears took their opening drive into the endzone on an eight yard touchdown run by Luke Lenoch. On the extra point attempt, kicker Javier Zamudio was successful on his first varsity PAT try.

Throughout the rest of the first quarter and most of the sceond, the Bears and the J-Hawks were locked into a defensive battle, trading punts and turnovers back and forth.

While at midfield, quarterback Brandon Rummelhart hit Luke Lenoch on a screen pass that resulted in a 16 yard gain down to the J-Hawks' 34 yard line.

Next play: Lenoch broke loose for a 37 yard touchdown run to break the game open at 28-0.
