The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Colt Lozano, who picked up 117 receiving yards and a touchdown. With that strong performance, he is now averaging an impressive 101 receiving yards per game.
United wouldn't let Boerne keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. United can thank Darrell Doyal and Jeremy Rodriguez for forcing both of them.
