Fourth Quarter
Manning looks for DeAndre Moore again but can’t convert as Ryan Watts blows him up after adequate pressure and sacks put the offense behind the chains.
With Ewers at quarterback, Baxter runs well to gain nine yards on second down before he’s taken down by Brooks. Facing 3rd & short, Blue is tackled in the backfield to make it 4th down, then the offense is stopped once again to turn the ball over.
Murphy starts his drive with a 23-yard pass to Moore to move further into opposing territory. He then converts a fourth down with a pass to Moore to move the chains. It gets to 3rd & goal after Red tries a trick play that goes awry. On 4th & goal, Murphy looks for Gunnar Helm but it falls incomplete thanks to good defense from Liona Lefau.
Charles Wright takes the field for the White team. He fires a strike over the middle on 3rd down to Jaden Alexis for the first down, then finds AD Mitchell for another first a few plays later. However, he’s unable to move the sticks
