The Conqs started off by giving up a touchdown on a four minute drive, but continued to push through to lead the first quarter 9-7 after a 30-yard field goal by Dillon Burkhard and a big 24-yard rush by Keymonne Gabriel that edged the Conqs up.
 
The Red Ravens took the second half, adding another two touchdowns off a 42-yard run and 50-yard passing touchdown that edged the opposition up 21-9.  Their defense would hold strong, not allowing the Conqs a chance at any second quarter points.
