Draighton Fletcher scored the first of his two TDs with 8:39 left before halftime on a 1-yard run. Mendoza’s PAT doubled Vian’s advantage to 14-0.

Wright scored his second touchdown of the first half on a 5-yard run. Mendoza’s extra point put Vian ahead 21-0 w2ith 6:32 remaining in the first half.

The Golden Demons (9-3) scored with 3:52 left in the first half to cut the Vian lead to 21-7 at halftime.

Jacob Brannick scored Vian’s lone TD in the third quarter on a 54-yard touchdown pass from Cash Trammel with 2:29 left in the third quarter. Mendoza’s PAT gave Vian a 28-7 lead going into the final period.

Fletcher scored his second touchdown of the game on a 3-yard TD run with 11:57 left to play. Mendoza’s extra point was good.

For the game, Wright rushed for 134 yards and two touchdowns, while Fletcher had 126 yards rushing and two TDs.
