WHEREAS, The Aztecs continued their offensive strike as the quarterback scored the third touchdown on 21-yard keeper run to the left; and

WHEREAS, Despite the Chargers first score, the Aztecs offense stayed aggressive and scored on a 42-yard run up the middle and completed the extra point to take the score to 25-7; and
