The Wildcats scored 16 more points in the third quarter while the Bulldogs fought back with 13 points on two touchdowns of their own, but the North Park squad outlasted the Bulldogs in the fourth quarter, scoring 16 more points on two touchdowns to put the game away. Peetz managed a lone score in the fourth quarter, but it was not enough to turn the tide, and the Bulldog’s fell 46-to-27, moving their record to 2-and-3 on the season.

Peetz senior Aiden Curtis had a big game in the loss, carrying the ball 12 times for 106 yards and three touchdowns, while freshman quarterback Chance Segelke completed six passes for 61 yards and a touchdown.
