Free State senior running back Maddon Brittingham scored three touchdowns in the first half, including a 62-yard touchdown reception thrown by senior quarterback Finn Moore.

Moore also rushed for multiple touchdowns in the second half, including a 1-yard score in the final minute to end the game with an exclamation point after Blue Valley West tried to put a question mark on the Firebirds performance with a 2nd half comeback attempt by the Jaguars.

After Free State took a commanding 28-3 following Moore’s 28-yard touchdown run midway through the 3rd quarter, Blue Valley West responded with a touchdown drive and quick takeaway to reach the red zone less than a minute later.

Blue Valley West would quickly find itself setup on 1st and goal from 2-yard line, only for a Jude Dowdle sack to cause a 23-yard loss and ultimately force the Jaguars to kick a 43-yard field goal near the end of the 3rd quarter.

Free State would match those 3 points with an 25-yard field goal from AJ Kimzey, which the Firebirds set up thanks to a 52-yard run by Moore.

Blue Valley West responded again with another scoring drive, cutting the Firebirds lead to 31-20 with just over 6 minutes left in the fourth quarter.

The Jaguars went for an onside kick, but Free State proved more than ready with a quick recovery.

The Firebirds put together a scoring drive, culminating in that final touchdown by Moore to cap off the 38-20 victory.

After a 2-week road stand to start the season, Free State will finally play in its home opener when the Firebirds host Gardner Edgerton next Friday.
