The Thunder forged ahead 12-0 in the third period when it went 94 yards, the final play being an 8-yard run by Hartman.

Amboy-LaMoille tallied its only touchdown of the game in the third quarter on an 80-yard drive that was finalized by a 1-yard plunge by quarterback Justin Hart to make it a 12-6 score.

But West Carroll managed to put the game away with a pair of touchdowns late in the fourth quarter.

The Clippers ended with 231 total yards, led by Ben Rhine with 118 yards rushing. Hart picked up 58 yards passing.
