Norris wins the fight against Lincoln Pius X, moves to 3-2 on the season

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – The Norris Titans hit the road Friday night and came out on top in a hard-fought battle, defeating Lincoln Pius X 24-14.

The first half was a back-and-forth defensive battle as the only points came from Norris’ Evan Greenfield on a 33-yard field goal to end the Titans’ opening drive.

Both offenses woke up in the second half as Greenfield again came through with a 42-yard touchdown catch to give the Titans a 10-0 lead early in the third quarter.

The Thunderbolts responded immediately. Quarterback Kolbe Volkmer threw a dart to Rylan Doering to finally get on the board, making it 10-7.

But the Titans turned it on in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Jarrett Behrends found Chris Garner Jr. for a 6-yard touchdown to take a 17-7 lead.

Behrends returned to Greenfield again for an 87-yard touchdown to open the game, giving the Titans a 24-7 lead.

The Bolts got a touchdown in the final minute from Volkmer to make the final score more respectable.

Norris moves to 3-2 on the season as the Bolts fall to 2-3.

Both teams will be at home next week as the Titans host Lincoln Standing Bear and the Bolts host Omaha Skutt.
