The second quarter brought more success for the Emery offense. With Deacon Mangum scoring a touchdown pass in the redzone and a QB keep, as Gilbert scored one on the ground. Gilbert would find his fourth touchdown pass of the game to Jadin Atwood. Atwood, the team’s kicker, also would have a successful 22-yard field goal and three successful PATs.
