First Quarter
DOUGLASS, KS - Visiting Christ Prep Academy Patriots jumped out to an early lead when Davis White took the opening kickoff for a touchdown. It was a lead they would never relinquish. CPA stopped Douglass on the Bulldogs first possession and then Tanner Metzdorf found Chase Stamatis for a 30 yard completion to the 1 yard line.
Three plays later the Patriots scored on a Metzdorf run to push the score to 13-0.
Second Quarter
Both teams struggled to sustain drives due to miscues and penalties but in the second quarter Metzdorf hit Matt Dawdy in stride for a 70 bomb and the Patriots had the Bulldogs on their heels. Douglass size and strength changed the momentum of the game and they scored two touchdowns before halftime to make it 20-12.
Douglass overcame their own mistakes by making spectacular plays - once converting on 3rd & goal from the 20 yard line for their first touchdown and later in the game scoring on 3rd & goal from 30 yards out.
Third Quarter
CPA was able to make plays themselves, Metzdorf found Stamatis for another touchdown pass and the Gabe Jones kick made the score 27-12.

On the next play, Will Cook ran off the left side for another CPA touchdown and the Jones kick made the score 33-12.
Douglass answered with a 70 yard scamper to the CPA 10 and that set up a touchdown to make it 33-20.
Fourth Quarter
Douglass then put themselves in a passing situation and Cale Thomas made them pay by picking up a Douglass fumble and returning it for a CPA defensive score and the Bulldogs backs were against the wall.
