The Stallions continued to stifle the Blue Jays offense heading into the fourth quarter. Stallions’ Jack Dellar started their offensive drive with a 20-yard gallup. Louis Green added another sensational run with 25-yards gained, by breaking at least five tackles on the carry. 

On the next play, Daniel Stelea put the icing on the cake by walking into the end zone untouched with the help of his offensive line opening up holes all day. The PAT was unsuccessful, bringing the score to 22-0 Stallions. 

Stallions’ defense was rock solid the entire game keeping the Blue Jays scoreless. In the end, Stallions Junior Varsity landed a win and will take their 1-0 record home to take on the Walled Lake Braves on September 11, 2022.
