Wanderers vs Moncton Maroonz

On their first possession the Gladiators fumbled the ball on their own 5 yard line. After holding the Wanderers out of the end zone for 4 plays an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty set Saint John up again, first and goal on the Capital Area 2 yard line. Still the Gladiator defence would not yield and Saint John was forced to settle for Ron Manning’s 10 yard field goal.

Capital Area moved ahead in the second quarter when quarterback Pat Dollimore hit Jeff Taylor on a 30 yard touchdown pass. Saint John would regain the lead in the third on quarterback Shawn MacAulay’s 10 yard pass to Tyrell Sparks. Ron Manning booted the 2 point conversion.

With time ticking away in the fourth quarter the Gladiators started a drive on their own 30 and methodically marched the ball down the field. On the last play of the game Dollimore passed to Danny Gibson for the game winning touchdown. Jeff  Taylor booted the 2 point conversion.
