In the fourth quarter, Dean Trentman took over. The junior running back punched in a touchdown run to give Jefferson its first lead at 12–7, sending the home crowd into a frenzy.

Trentman wasn’t done. He added two more scores in the fourth quarter, finishing with a hat trick of touchdowns in the second half.

Jefferson secured its first win of the season with a 26–14 victory over Parkway.
