The Okanagan Sun香蕉视频直播檚 undefeated season continues after a 38-6 win over the Prince George Kodiak on Saturday, Sept. 14.
The 8-0 Sun started the scoring two minutes into the first quarter as defensive back Vicente Ferreira made one of five Okanagan interceptions. Ferreira香蕉视频直播檚 pick eventually led to running back Elelyon Noa香蕉视频直播檚 17th rushing touchdown of the season on a four-play 43-yard drive.
During Prince George香蕉视频直播檚 next possession, defensive back Kenley Williams stepped in front of a Kodiak pass taking it down to the 10-yard line. However, the Sun had to settle for a Liam Attwood 18-yard field goal making it 10-0 with just over five minutes gone in the first quarter.
Sun defensive backs took charge again a few plays later when Easton Fenske stripped a Kodiak receiver of the ball and ran into the end zone for a 17-0 lead. Kenley Williams picked off his second Kodiak pass and took the ball to the two-yard line. The Sun offence was unable to score though as Prince George stopped Noa on three straight attempts.
In the second quarter, Sun quarterback Marek Filipek found receiver Jordayne Falconer for two touchdowns of 40 and 61 yards. He then hit receiver Ben Chomolok for a seven-yard strike to make it 38-3 at the half.
The Kodiaks scored the only points in the second half on a 38-yard field goal. The Sun香蕉视频直播檚 Kenley Williams collected his third interception at the end of the game.
