No. 12 Yotes Explode Past Firestorm

Glendale, Ariz..- After one quarter of play on Saturday, Arizona Chirstian held a 10-7 lead over the NAIA's ranked No. 12 College of Idaho.  But the Coyotes exploded for 42 unanswered points to take control of the game.

AJ Sibley hauled in a touchdown bomb from Tyler Duncan and Johnny Herrera forced his way into the end zone on the ground.

Defensively, Cameron Tibbetts (9 tackles), Patrick Nunn (INT), Kaden Vela (INT), Jackson Ortiz (4 tackles, 3 pass breakups) were not enough to slow the Fronteir's top offense.
