Maple Grove went ahead in the third quarter on another Haden-Vokal touchdown pass (43 yards) before Tonka tied the game early in the fourth quarter.

The Crimson took the lead for good with a defensive score. Will Raymond forced a Caleb Francois fumble in the endzone and Bo Draheim recovered for a touchdown.
