The Cougars quickly flipped the field behind quarterback Cy Hill, who broke free for a long run before being ruled out of bounds near the goal line.

South Fremont finished off the drive when Nash Brower scored on a sweep to give the Cougars the lead.

South Fremont went on to control the game and secure a 21-6 victory over Bear Lake.
