It would remain 8-3 until the 3rd quarter when Travion Brown from LC, busted out an 80 yard touchdown reception, but failed the 2-pt conversion bringing the score 8-9. On the following drive, Broxx Comia ran it in for a 14 yard touchdown. The Hyacks also failed on the 2-pt conversion bringing the score to 14-9.

Finishing off the game in the 4th, Michael Kingsley had a 14 yard touchdown run – and another failed attempt on the 2-pt conversion, making the final score of the game 22-9 for the Hyacks.

“I’m very pleased with our fundamentals on defense for week 1. Our tackling and our ability to rally to the ball was very good.” “Linfield was a team that had some very high end talent (3 players with multiple Div 1 offers) but we competed hard against them all night, ” – head coach Farhan Lalji.
