“I thought our kids played really hard,” stated Head Coach Mike Synder. “We kept making plays that kept us in the game. What happened was what we worried about before the game. They were so much more physical than us up front, and we could not stop the run. We had some breakdown on a couple of three and long plays that led to touchdowns for them. We lost Donavan Garfield and Jay Ladd in the first half that had a huge impact on the fact we could not stop them.”
