Down 21-14, it came down to a 4th and one for Poudre at the Lightning 12 yard line with less than a minute left in the game. Josh Marton, the Impala running back would get the call. Before the play Marton had run the ball 42 times for 230 yards. He would end the game with 229 yards on 43 carries, as Nick Kasa split the line and stoned Marton to seal the win.
The hard fought 21-14 win was by far the most exciting with both teams fighting hard and the game in the balance until the final minute. Poudre dominated the time of possesion, but 4 turnovers led directly to both Lightning touchdowns. Bo Yurko scored on the opening series by scooping up a fumble, and an interception late in the game led to a 89 yard Luke Bublitz to Travis Sears TD on a slickly designed stop and go
The (7-1) Lightning end their regular season next Friday at North Stadium against rival Horizon (1-7).
Go Lightning!
