Later in the quarter, Eastman found WR Kimball Burton on a 39-yard strike which set up a short two-yard touchdown run by Soni Satele for a 14-0 Snow lead. In the second half, Air Force prep QB Tim Jefferson hit FB Keegan Gogerty which cut the deficit to 14-7, but touchdowns by Hatch and speedster Regan Buck put the game out of reach.
