The scoring began when St Francis\u2019 QB Miles Bryant scored on an 11 yard keeper. Matt Bazarevitsch added the PAT, to give the<\/p>\n<p>Golden Knights a 7-0 halftime lead.<\/p>\n<p>It would be almost another full quarter before Salesian would get on the scoreboard. The Mustangs scored for the first time with 2:32 in quarter number three, when<\/p>\n<p>Robbie Blosser found Nicholas Pickett for a 27 yard \u201ccatch and run\u201d score. The PAT was added by Christian Renteria. After three quarters of play, the game was tied: 7-7.<\/p>\n<p>St. Francis took the lead in the fourth quarter when Bazarevitsch connected on a 22 yard Field Goal. Salesian answered, taking the lead on an 82 yard TD run by<\/p>\n<p>Deommodore Lenoir, which, after failing to convert the subsequent PAT, gave the Mustangs a three point lead, 13-10. St. Francis tied it with 53 seconds remaining in regulation, as Bazarevitsch converted a second field goal, from 43 yards away.<\/p>\n<p>This duel continued through the first over time period, as the teams traded touchdowns.
