In perfect sunny conditions, with a nice breeze from the west and 84 degrees, Michael Curry came up with an interception return to the Lazio 38-yard mark, which set up a Zack Baker quarterback option run for a 13-yard touchdown. Grant Mosser tagged on the PAT for the Blue Jays to lead 21-0.

The final score of the first quarter came as Baker hit tight end James Mann for a 25-yard touchdown and Nick Campbell split the uprights.

Two more touchdowns opened a 49-0 second lead. First Ryan Cary scored on a 63-yard run from Ryan Cary and Nick Campbell made the PAT then a Charlie Cassis 8-yard rushing score and Jamie Sullivan kick came after a James Keating interception.

Having led 49-0 at halftime, the Blue Jays scored on the second half kickoff when Boone Lewis Jr. reeled off a 52-yard return for a touchdown and Campbell tagged on the extra point. Interceptions for Michael Curry and Marcus Spearman kept the Lazio Marines offense at bay.
