The first play of the game after the kickoff was a 50-yard run by Levi Mackenzie, who dodged many defenders before gliding into the end zone untouched.

Jack Elliot blocked their punt, giving the Rangers incredible field position.

Two penalties on the Ranger side dampened the excitement of the blocked punt, but Levi turned that around with a 15-yard run that secured another touchdown for the Rangers. The 2-point attempt was no good, leaving the score 12-0. The Rangers kicked it off and successfully defended the next drive from the Bengals.

The next drive from the Rangers was once again successful, the long drive capping off with a 25-yard touchdown run from Jack Elliot. The field goal by Owen Meyer was good this time, bringing the score to 19-0. The Bengals received the ball and shortly fumbled the ball, giving the Rangers another opportunity to score that quarter.

The Rangers took the ball in stride, with a drive leading into a 30-yard run from Jack Elliot bringing the Rangers to the 5-yard line and a 1-yard run from Jack capping it off.
