Don Bosco punted the ball, it landed inches from the goal line and pinned the Paladins at their own 1-yard line. A snap sailed over the head of the Paladins’ punter and another went through the hands of star prospect Jabrill Peppers.

These mistakes, combined with a safe and efficient approach from the Don Bosco offense, resulted in the Paladins playing from behind for almost the entire game.
