After a TD run by the Orioles and a successful extra point the score was 15-7.  After a Roman Katty run, Keegan Dewey scored on his second long TD run, however the Colts failed to convert the extra point…21-7 Colts!  After another Orioles TD run, a missed extra point made the score 21-13. The Colts next drive stalled out…turnover on downs.  The Colts defense stepped up with flag pulls by Lincoln Clark, Connor Williams, Thatcher Arvila, and Bennett Chandler.  Turnover on downs!  After a run by Bennett Chandler, and a completed pass from Connor Williams to Thatcher Arvila, Connor Williams scored on a long touchdown run…extra point no good.  Colts up 27-13.  After a Connor Williams flag pull the Colts went into the locker room for halftime, up 27-13.

The second half began with strong Colts defense.  Austin Medvecky and Jacob Stanley pulled flags, and Jacob nearly intercepted a pass.  Colts ball on downs!  Austin Medvecky started the action with a run and Enzo McCormick broke free for a long touchdown run!  Extra point no good…Colts up 33-13.  Flag pulls by Enzo McCormick, Benjamin Elliot, Austin Medvecky, Keegan Dewey, and Luca Jones weren’t enough to stop the Orioles who scored on a run and completed a 2 point conversion pass, making the score 33-21.  After a Roman Katty run, Robby Berry put the Colts back on the board with a long touchdown run!  Keegan Dewey ran in the extra point…Colts up 40-21!
