Running back Shane Friesen scored an early touchdown on a 17-yard run to open the scoring. Quarterback Austin Beverly-Collins added a nine-yard rushing touchdown for a 14-0 lead after one quarter.

Rhett Vavra added a 78-yard touchdown in the second quarter, followed by a one-yard rushing major from Jordan Lamontagne. Ethan Kurtz closed the scoring for the Colts with a 26-yard field goal.
