Both offenses were shut down in the second half.  Dell Rapids was able to drive to the West Central 15 yard line late in the third quarter, but the West Central defense forced a turnover-on-downs to keep the Quarriers off the scoreboard with 2:15 remaining in the quarter.  The Quarrier defense was just as impressive.  With 8:54 left in the game, West Central set up to attempt 47-yard field goal.  However the Trojans tried to run a fake field goal, and the Dell Rapids defense forced a loss of seven yard to force the turnover on downs.

Later in the fourth quarter, the Dell Rapids defense force the only turnover in the game.  With 5:24 left to play, the Quarriers recovered a fumble by Mettler on the West Central 35 yard line.  The Dell Rapids offense drove the ball to the Trojan 14 yard line over the next three minutes and 43 seconds.  With 1:41 left in the game, and facing a 3rd down and 11, Nelson connected with Riley Schmidt on a 14-yard touchdown pass to give Dell Rapids their first lead in the game at 21-14.

Schmidt said, “The play before we ran kind of the same play.  I saw their corner was playing up trying to stop the run.  So I knew I could get out, get behind him, and Jase could throw me a good ball.  He did, and we got in the end zone.”

The Trojans were not about to go down without a fight.  West Central took their last possession down to the Dell Rapids 25-yard line with :05 left in the game.  On what looked like the final play of the game, Jace Hanisch threw a pass to Cody Bussell in the endzone as time expired that was incomplete, however, the Quarriers were flagged for pass interference.  That gave West Central one un-timed down from the Dell Rapids 13 yard line.  The Trojans ran a halfback pass in which Hanisch threw a pass back to the acting quarterback Dan Skinner.  Skinner was tackled down at the two yard line giving the Quarriers the victory.

Head coach Steve Hansen said, “We didn’t really know what they were going to do, if they were going to make some changes.  We had several things, and we were trying to use Riley as a decoy a lot. But also knowing that if we were going to win the game, Riley needed to have the ball.   It was difficult coming in.  I thought our defense did a great job preparing defensively.  It’s two good programs playing.  And that’s the way it’s going to be..a knock down, drag out brawl.”

Dell Rapids ran 49 offensive plays for 267 yards , 125 passing yards and 142 rushing yards.  West Central ran 71 offensive plays for 310 total yards, 61 passing yards and 249 rushing yards.  Dell Rapids was 5-10 on third down conversions, while West Central was 8-15.
