Coach Dave Scurlock responded by saying, “We called our infamous 3-3 Wide side Charlie blitz where Gonzalez comes up from his safety position and basically took the handoff from the running back. Once Gonzalez has the ball, there is no stopping that kid.” Scurlock then went on to say, “Our defense was outstanding, a true team effort.” The Dons defense was led by Edin Gonzalez #32, Ian Hicks #77, Alexander Howell #40, Ryan Kan# 7, Demir Khawaja # 4, Rex Mitchell # 8, Bryce Scurlock # 1, Daniel Shirfon #15, and Donovan Young # 5.
