were pretty good as well -- eric knaak -- remember that name -- gets the pick -- has g-r in prime field position -- and just moments later -- he's going to get this -- shumann to knaack -- 28 first quarter points -- and the rebels get it done well, last year losing, and now having the feeling of winning everyone on our team's extremely happy right now. it's huge. it's everything we've ever wanted. we got redemption from last year, and that's just, that's all we wanted all season. 8-man title game -- a rematch of 20-12 when don bosco fell to marcus, meriden, cleghorn -- dons looking for their second title in three years -- 1st quarter -- brandon bagby looking to the endzone -- he's got caleb rigdon for the score -- dons looking like they're ready to roll to a title -- up 14, zip -- but things fell apart -- m-m-c's jacob spieler hauls in his second touchdown -- they ended the half on a 22, nothing run -- and made it worse in the second -- specht
