The team fell early in a back-and-forth defensive battle, down ten points at halftime 3-13. The Pioneers surrendered only a field goal in the third quarter, putting them down 3-16. Alfred State landed a huge play in the fourth, a 40-yard pass from QB Jimmy Brush (Kerhonkson, NY/ Rondout) to Ben Ba (Harlem, NY/ Park East) for a 58-yard touchdown. The play cut the lead to six points, making it 16-10.
