• Zach Hammett's three-yard touchdown run capped off a 6-play, 59-yard drive that put Jamestown ahead 14-0 with 11:46 to play in the third quarter.

• MSU tied the game with 6:43 left on a Jack Simmers 1-yard touchdown run, but Jamestown wasted little time in responding.
• Faced with a 3rd and 13 on the UJ 27, Grann found Roebuck on an inside route near the 40, and Roebuck escaped a tackle attempt and went all the way to the end zone for the go-ahead score at the 4:54 mark of the fourth.
