Zeeland West would score the first touchdown in the second half only to be answered again by Thaddius Gamble with 28 yard touchdown yard to keep the Dux lead at 8 entering the fourth quarter.  After a trade of touchdowns by the Dux and Eagles early in the 4th quarter, the Dux would ultimately prove to much for the Eagles.  Zeeland West would add 2 late touchdowns to put the final score out of reach, with a final of 48 to 27.
