would kick the extra point and the Falcons were down 7-0. It would remain that way through
halftime. In the 3 rd quarter the Falcons put together a drive of their own capped off with a 22-

conversion and the Falcons led 8-7. Frankenmuth would score a touchdown toward the end of
the 3 rd quarter and the extra point was blocked by Nick Haas, making the score 13-8.
Frankenmuth would lead most of the 4 th quarter until with 19 seconds left in the game when
Heyn would connect with Tucker Hileman for a 16-yard touchdown pass competition, the try for
2 would fail and the Falcons led 14-13 with 19 seconds on the clock. The Eagles would fumble
on their first play after the kickoff and the Falcons were able to run out the rest of the clock to
pull out the 14-13 win.
The Falcon offensive was bottled up most of the night but did manage 219 yards total offense,

receptions and Hileman would have 3 receptions on the night. The ground game was led by
