Three plays later, Micahel Bracy sprinted in from 35 yards out to put Leroy up 14-0 with 4:29 to go in the first quarter. The score remained that way until Excel's Josh Mack hit A. Williams for a 4-yard TD pass to cut the lead to 14-7 with 2:59 to go in the first half. Leroy had a quick answer to the Excel score, with Clint Moseley hitting Sammie Coates for a 41-yard TD strike to end the first half with the Bears on top 21-7.
