No. 11 Chaminade-Madonna (Hollywood, Fla.) and Northwestern (Miami) finally got a chance to settle it on the field after the game was moved from Thursday to Saturday because of lightning.

After a 7-7 first quarter the Lions scored the next 35 points and the Bulls added a late touchdown with a running clock.
