On a night that featured a state record tying 99 yard touchdown pass from the Roadrunners and a very strong first half start ended in disappointment as the varsity football squad dropped their third straight game. Interstate took the early momentum on two different defensive stands to hold the Bluejays to two field goals and took a 14-22 lead into halftime after a close call in the endzone. Unfortunately, the Roadrunners wouldn't score again and the Bluejays would tack on 27 unanswered points to make the final score 41-22. There was no answer for feature Bluejay runningback Colton Halder added over 200 yards to his total on the night in the second half alone.
Even though the Roadrunners could move the ball in the second half, they were unsuccessful at putting the ball deep into the opponent's territory. Mistakes and unfortunate calls that were going in Interstate's favor in the first half seemed to take a 180 degree turn. The change in momentum may have taken down the Roadrunners, but they were still able to put up some big numbers offensively. The night was highlighted by a 201 yard passing effort by Tommy Bregar who went 9 for 13 and a 99 yard touchdown, but also added two interceptions to his season total. Bregar was also the lead rusher for the night with 87 yards and two touchdowns with many of those yards called back because of yellow laundry on the field. Senior Andrew Morris was the second rusher on the night with 77 yards on only 12 carries.
The historic 99 yard touchdown pass was to Tanner Bean who took the ball on a quick slant with his back in the endzone. Bean then used some impressive downfield blocking and the lack of a safety in the middle of the field to scamper across the field to the other endzone.
