River Dell's defense made a significant impact when Morris Hills' quarterback fumbled the snap, allowing Mikey Koth to scoop up the loose ball and rumble into the end zone for a touchdown. This jubilant celebration increased the Golden Hawks' lead to 21-0.

Morris Hills attempted to regain momentum by going for it on fourth down deep in their own territory, but Jayden Rodriguez stuffed the run, resulting in a turnover on downs.

With a short field to work with, River Dell's offense made quick progress on the ground, aided by the offensive line's solid blocks. Running back Teddy Schwanewede capped off the drive with a five-yard touchdown, expanding the margin to 28-0.
