Tatum Hanson led with 7 tackles, a TFL, and a pick, while Brayden Bomar added 6 tackles, a tackle for loss, an interception, and a blocked PAT kick. Dallas Peavey, Slayton Farris, Brayden Yowell, and Anthony Secreto each made impact plays to help secure a win.

The difference maker came on special teams, where Brayden Bomar blocked a PAT, sealing the Tomcats’ one-point edge before the skies ended the game early.
