Coach Bob Bellard said: He praised his team's effort to come back from a 22-3 halftime deficit and take a 37-36 lead. "Our fight in our kids was really, really good. We made plays in the second half, more than we did in the first half. We missed some opportunities with dropped balls. We got more consistent offensively in the second half and defensively, I thought we played pretty well most of the contest. We've got to get to where we can throw the football better."
