Lakota West’s comeback came up short on Friday night as the St. Xavier Bombers held on for a 16-13 win on Friday night. The Bombers jumped out to a 16-0 halftime lead and were able to do just enough on the defensive end in the second half to pull out the win. Chase Herbstreit and Daniel Vollmer scored touchdowns for the Bombers who also got a defensive safety in the first half.

The Firebirds came out in the second half and attempted to turn the tables. Luka Gilbert scored on a 5-yd rec from Sam Wiles and Braydon Johnson rushed for a 4-yard score to get the Firebirds back into the ballgame. The two defensive units got stop after stop in a back-and-forth defensive battle in the second half. The Firebirds had a chance to tie the game with seconds remaining but missed a 49-yard field goal. The Bombers advance to face league rival Moeller in the regional final.
