The Redmen, coming off an emotional Quarter Final win, were looking to jump out early and press down field. They did just that as Brady Mackay found the endzone on the opening drive. Unfortunately, an offside penalty negated the score and the Redmen came up short on their 3rd down attempt. In the first half, Riffel would find themselves up 12-0 on 2 uncoverted touchdowns despite the defenses best efforts. With just 2 minutes remaining in the 1st half the Balfour Redmen needed to respond, and they did. A brilliant catch by Riley Hadiken moved the ball into Riffel territory and the Redmen offense finished a 3 play drive with a TD pass that stood up, to Brady Mackay. Trailing 12-7 at half time the Redmen had momentum on their side and were looking to repeat last weeks come from behind victory. Unfortunately, the Redmen had some costly turnovers and some close plays that didnt go their way (Fake Punt attempt) in the second half. Behind a great Offensive Line, RB Mason Rossler and the Riffel Royals would keep to their potent rushing attack and eventually pull away in the latter stages of the 4th Quarter. Great effort by everyone... certainly was not the result we were looking for but everyone can be proud of the successes we did have in this game and throughout the year.
