The game started out good for the Mustangs as Matt Kenny fell on a Warrior fumble at the 32-yard line then ran twice for 15 yards fo r a first dow n at the seventeen. However, that was as far as they would get as a sack and a penalty took the Mustangs out of scoring range. The M ustangs got the ball back at their 39-yard line after forcing a punt, but were unable to move the ball and were forced to punt. The ball was touched by the kicking team, but w asn’t downed and an alert Warrior picked up the ball and ran untouched 80 yards for a touchdown. The kick was good and the Warriors had a 7-0 lead with less than four m inutes left in the first quarter. The Mustangs took over at their twenty-three after the kick.
