Salem kicks the ball out of bounds to begin the third quarter. That means the Stallions will start at their own 35. One of Salem's key defenders, Jaden Hudson, has to run off the field before the first play from scrimmage. Green Run's run game takes advantage with Terrance Ealy Jr. gaining 9. Thy then get the first down on a run from Ealy.
A pass play with QB K'Saan Farrar to RB Charles Jackson - lined up on the outside as a receiver - nets 17 yards into Salem territory. Faced with a 1st & 5 from the Salem 33, the Sun Devils buckle down thanks to a pass breakup by Antwan Young and tackle in open space on third down from Maurice Latham.
But on 4th & 4, the Salem corners are playing too far off and the Stallions find their dynamic playmaker in Jayden Anderson to add to their lead.
