Sun Devils on to Semi-Finals

---

In the playoffs, the formula towards victory is typically running the football, leaning on your star players, playing stout on defence and special teams, while winning the turnover battle. The South Delta Sun Devils and Centennial Centaurs followed that plan to an equally effective level in all but one phase. 

If you look at the box score, the stats were equal in all but one category, turnovers. The Sun Devils forced 5 of them on the night and took full advantage of their extra possessions, winning 21-7 and punching their ticket to the Semi-Finals.

In a game that matched the 4th- and 5th-seeded teams and a rematch of an early-season exhibition game that Centennial won 22-20, both teams knew this would be a tight battle.  

With their season on the line, the Sun Devils team continued to lean on Damian Dumas. The quarterback had 100 yards rushing, nearly as many yards through the air and kept drives alive for South Delta all game on offence. Dumas was also a force on the defensive side of the ball, finishing with 6 tackles and two fumble recoveries. 

Dumas didn't do it all, though. Will Jollymore played the game of his life, accounting for 2 of the 3 Sundevils TDs on hard-fought physical runs.  

On special teams, Luke Dunn did it again. The oh so rare Offensive Guard/linebacker/kickreturner caught a kickoff in stride, hit the sideline and raced into the endzone for his second Kickoff return touchdown of the year. Dunn added 9 tackles and a fumble recovery on defence.

The Centaurs had another strong performance by Jasper Baron, who had the team's lone score, but were unable to overcome their 5 costly turnovers. Centaurs head coach Dino Geremia was proud of his team postgame despite the loss.

"We have to be proud of our season and the growth we have shown as a program. We as coaches could not be prouder of our players.”

With their victory, the Sun Devils will now take on the undefeated WJ Mouat Hawks next week at BC Place with a spot in the championship game on the line.
