First half was a low scoring affair. Hillcrest had a lot of success running the ball early not so much throwing. Central on the other hand had success with the short passing game, McNeil scrambling, and Thomas finding room to run. The Patriots scored first as wide receiver Kahden Smith lined up in the wildcat formation and ran for a 50-yard touchdown.

The Falcons were able to move the ball pretty well with their possessions, however they could not seem to find the endzone early in the game.
